| Regarding this singing of obscenities, is it just Me or what because when the chants start up ,I have to listen very carefully as I cant tell a bloody word that they're singing about, so I have to ask someone what they are singing, and the usual reply is "dunno mate not a bloody clue."

Not sure what parts of my posts people are not getting or refusing to read, maybe I'm writing in a foreign language without realising?
I was replying ONLY about signing about Wigan, not swearing, not the IRA etc. I don't see what is 'stupid' about singing about them!!

I think your right there Lynda, most people who do sing when that "Tune" starts is what you sing. I think the tune and chant is quite catchy and I join in but don't use wig@n and the ira. It may only be a handful who use these words but because it has become synonymous now when some folk hear it they just assume everyone singing must be idiots

| I heard it yesterday, second half. Seemed to be from the back right of the stand.

Yep that's where it came from, as I said only a few and in the whole scheme of things not really significant (mountain molehill)

| It was the Rochdale club to blame. When they scored well into the second half they played the flute tune and our lads then joined in - may not have been sung otherwise.

| Well done Ian Holloway for his public condemnation of his own fans singing songs with reference to Mr Saville

| Millwall Manager.
Holloway said the Savile songs were just one example of the sort of bad taste chanting he wants driven out of the game.

| Oh dear that second bottle is kicking in. I can't google atm due to befuddlement but it has surprised me that Millwall fans sing stuff Wigan Rugby and the ira.
I always thought Millwall was a Catholic stronghold.

I have to agree with Steve here. It's not funny, and it's not clever. I swear like a pitman, but would NEVER EVER sing the flute song, or sing about owt to do with that pervert Saville. I've been to games with my two kids - who also can swear like pitmen when under pressure - but they also think that where we are trying to encourage kids/teenagers to become future fans, then their mum/dad take them to the game, and they hear stuff like this, we're actually discouraging them ....
