palmer1 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) Why not being back some of the older chants that used to be heard at Boundary Park or around the country for that matter. As pointed out on another thread, looking at our midfield with Klock, Fane, Green they definintly have a hint of the Yard Digs about them. Why not bring back on Saturday the yard dogs chant in memory of the man who coined it 'Sir' Jimmy Frizzell. We are going to see some crunching tackles this season & it would something synonymous with Latics which everybody always wants.Its also very easy to remember Another I liked as a kid was Ooooooohhhhhh your :censored: arggh everytime the oppo keeper kicked it out from a deadball. Don't think I've heard it in years... Any more ideas? Edited August 10, 2016 by palmer1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunty Blue Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 As a kid a favourite was: Who's your father Who's your father Who's your father referee You haven't got one You're a b#*tard You're a b#*tard referee It was vaguely musical but with emphasis on the insulting word (edited for the sensitive and young). Not saying I condone insults, just recalling my youth stood under the yellow lighting in the Chaddy End. I didn't like it when the oppo fans declared "You're going home in a feckin ambulance" though. Oddly enough it never happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsslatic Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I prefer it if we just sing Palace songs. I noticed last night the Athleticos have now gone the whole hog with their red and blue Palace flag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Shall we just sing what the hell we want. I find it weird how people have to give a critique of what is sung alright some stuff works better than others but what the hell I'd rather people sang the palace songs rather than sitting in silence. Oh and yes go for it with the yard dogs chant especially when we are pressing the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed last night the Athleticos have now gone the whole hog with their red and blue Palace flag. Fairly certain they had that last year as it tied in with the kit colours..... They started to rip of the Sheff Wednesday "We're on our way" chant though, wasn't shocked by this.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 The 'we're on our way' is sung by quiet a few teams now, one of the best I've seen at it is Grimsby who have cracking away support, they had a particular good turnout in Halifax.

NewBlue Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Why don't you all just chant them at matches? I'm all for moaning about the Palace chants the Athleticos have but the only way to change it is to get some going yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I'm amazed that the protest group don't sing, "Use my Arsehole as a :censored:," by Anal Kunt to emphasise how they feel the Board treats them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisbrogan Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Not sure why chanting 'Yard dogs' would be a fitting tribute for Frizzell when he coined it after a defeat for his team when Miligan & Henry's constant yapping at the ref had clearly got under his skin. Anyway, songs should be sung on the spur of the moment, requests are for the radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Kelly & Milligan were the yard dogs that night but does anybody remember Kelly? Henry wasn't a regular until 12-18 months later.

Remember him getting the armband & a bit of stick for being a bit one dimensional. Typical tough-tackling midfielder that couldn't do a lot with the ball once he'd won it.
