"One's called Ronald, one's called Frank, one missed a penalty, the other one's a wank".
This, obviously, isn't the best chant I have heard, but the inventiveness of supporters never ceases to amaze me.
So what are the best chants you've heard at a football match?

Also Brighton away fans often have to endure the pithily amusing:"does your boyfriend know you're here?"usually just before YMCA gets played by the home clubs announcer.
Stil nothing really beats the beauty of any Midlands side enjoying a rousing chorus of "Shit On The Villa", when cov played birmingham a year or two back the whole crowd sang it for ages. Best part of the game in question in fact.

"Hey goalie, you're not a goalie, you're a sieve; you're not a sieve, you're a funnel; you're not a funnel, you're a vacuum; you're not a vacuum, you're a black hole; you're not a black hole, you just suck! You just suck.You just suck. You just suck"
and even more fun: (back story-- you can hear the press box phone ring at the arena) When a phone rings (at anytime during the game) Loudly say, "Hey (opposing goalie's name) it's your mom. She says, 'YOU SUCK!'"
at the only (american) football game i went to, we got a load of people chanting 'peter handler, clap clap clap clap clap' and 'where is peter?' because we were looking for our friend...

Which one? There's the highly unimaginative "alan shearer, you're a wanker, you're a wanker" or
"you are my larsson, my henrik larssonyou make me happy when skies are greywe went for shearerbut he's a wankerso please don't take my larsson away".

"cheer up Alex McLeish*oh what can it meanto a sad Orange bastardwith a shite football team"
* I realise this doesn't scan at all, but it worked with Advocaat and Walter Smith which had the requisite number of vowels, and no-one has been arsed thinking up a McLeish song yet.
Also a variant of one on another thread, sung in a pub I was watching a Scotland game in once..
"Posh Spice is a slapperShe wears Versace coatsAnd when she's shagging BeckhamShe thinks of Berti Vogts"

I think the SAFC version originated when it looked like Peter Reid was going to bring them to the top of division one. It went on with "We once thought of you as a scouser dressed in blue, but now your red and white through and through."
I just found this one, which is probably going to keep me amused for the rest of the day:
Niall Quinn's disco pants are the best,They go up from his arse to his chest.They are better than Adam and The Ants,Nial Quinn's disco pants.
