Also forgot thus beauty.
I think it was our 1st year in the prem v spurs.
Blues are singing "we are Brummies, we are Brummies" im sat in the Railway next to the Spurs lot who are pissing themselves that we are singing this then what seemed like the whole of ground in unison (pointing as well) responded with the "you are Wa@@ers you are Wa@@ers". They went from laughing to sodding hell that's good.
TresorLuntalawannabee bailey2. The crowd, en masse, singing "Lets All Do The Wenger" and seeing how he reacted to it.
I forgot about that, sporadic chanting at its finest, caught on so quickly. Stoke got credited with it about 4 years later.
Also against villa, I think it was the 2-0 when Melchiot was taking the piss out of Hendry and making him blart.
The whole crowd doing the Big Daddy "Eazee, eazee" and clapping their hands above their heads.
I liked the pointing and 'Tree!!' chant to Mark Sale ... think it was taken from a Harry Enfield / Fast Show sketch or something similar.
Viduka heave was brilliant though.
As mentioned before, the "Hang your balls up Alan Boots" chant at Alan Ball in the 4-0 win v Southampton in 1981 was brilliant. Rather bizarrely, another thing I always remember from that game was someone, presumably a butcher, on the scoreboard side of the Kop was hurling huge bones onto the pitch, one narrowly missing the linesman. Lots of laughter prevailed.
The other one that nobody has yet mentioned is the Bo Hansen "WHOOOOO?" chant against Bolton around 1996-ish. Keith Laurent (who I think posts on this board) was the matchday announcer who first repeated the name of a substitute after the WHOOOO? and the whole stadium pissed themselves laughing. I believe Bolton Wanderers even made an official complaint!
Fat Buddha OBEBarry Fry on the touchline in Speedos. Have I made that up or can anyone else remember that?
I’ll thank you to keep your sick fantasies to yourself
So confused because I'm 99.9% sure it happened. Maybe it was the first season back in the second tier (1996).
If not I'm gonna get myself checked in.

I think it was one of the Yorkshire clubs (Barnsley?) that complained. My favourite - and it might have been that Bolton game - was when he repeated it, the crowd asked 'whooo?' again, and Keith said 'you heard'. That was a funny moment. Keith was a good announcer.I liked him.
The home leg of the Preston play off. We were in the GM Upper above the away fans who were a bit too loud and full of themselves, all in their lovely pristine white replica shirts.
From nowhere, from somewhere behind me, a meat pie came raining down and caught one of their fans below splat on the back. I know I shouldn’t have, but it made me laugh out loud and was the only thing I really want to remember from those games!
Last game of season at home to arsenal they had kanu playing and the song started up I’d rather be a barge then a kanu…it had everyone laughing and even some of the arsenal players .
dmcweNot at St A’s but a preseason friendly at Wigan, Seaman was in goal and probably his first game if I recall. About 1500 blues fans doing the Dying Fly behind the goal. Local blokes in cloth caps and the like looking on in total bewilderment.
my first ever game at stans we lost 4-1 or 5-1 to man city and fans ran on the pitch at the end and did the dying fly.

That was also my first game, April 1978. We lost 1-4. Funny thing is, I don't remember the dying fly bit that day but I do recall loads of their fans being chased out of the Tilton and onto the pitch before the game.
Ted McMinn in front of the Kop, having a very congenial looking chat with a linesman, while making the tosspot gesture behind his back, was very funny to 16 year old me.
b34bluesLast game of season at home to arsenal they had kanu playing and the song started up I’d rather be a barge then a kanu…it had everyone laughing and even some of the arsenal players .
Yeah that got done on a night game when he was at Albion too..We went through loads, including speedboat and ended up on a raft.
And then there was the Hull forward who got a massive bandage following a head injury and he got ‘one pint of Guinness’..

I thought that song was when he was playing for Albion and we screwed them about 4-0?
Bryan Robson was their manager - they stayed up last game of the season.
Gareth Barry squaring up to Geoff Horsfield was hilarious, big Geoff sticking his chin out and saying “Go on then”
Kenny Burns running 20 yards to kick Brian Kidd between the legs and then pleading his innocence to the ref.
