I couldn't care less what they call me/us. They refer to us as chavs as we are generally more working class than they are and pikey as they have struggled to come up with a better insult. The burnt your town down chant is quite amusing although I'm sure that it isn't to anyone affected by the 2011 riots. Yeah it made me and others around laugh and agree (to knock it down rather than arson before anyone uses their right to be offended).

I don't care either, it was more aimed at people who do care about 'offensive' language. You'd be surprised how people can construe the meanings of things, I've used that a few times to wind up Brighton fans, and they've had nothing to say back. Works a charm.

I have been to many Palace Brighton matches and have never heard anyone bellowing disgusting (homophobic) abuse at them. Unless you think songs like We Can See You Holding Hands is disgusting abuse. You must be deaf...

I don't sing the bum song anymore. Just don't. Not really any reason. I did sing the holding hands in the 5-0. I don't sing the SE25 song and only the Mrs Robinson song on rare occasions due to our sh1t shower at home most of the time and unsure if we'll survive or perform even.

I bet they don't fine us and if they do fine anyone Brighton don't play us at their muted and soulless ground until the end of November. Disgusting abuse you will report? I haven't heard any of the disgusting kind of abuse you talk of. If you're talking about the bum song then you would've needed a notepad to note down all culprits and dozens of stewards to follow your instructions, with no hassle for you from doing so. As I've said many times, I doubt the song will be sung. Everyone knows we're being watched and it'll give them a result if it's sung and we're punished or viewed as prehistoric by the new age football audience. Anyone else want to carry on as if we have a big problem with homophobia or are going to have this season? If you do, you should watch Leeds in the documentary. That will get negative attention. Oh let him have his little Mary Whitehouse moment you big bully

Maybe we should have an inclusive chant, like "You can see us holding hands," and then proceed to hold hands with the people next to us?

Maybe we could go through the whole range of sexualities so as not to preclude anyone "You like a bit of fanny, you like a bit of fanny" for example. Obviously I'm not being serious in case someone comes tumbling down off the moral high ground to spank me with the outrage paddle. Edited by Part Time James (09 Aug 2017 12.50pm)

On a similar note, should we change "Oh South London is Wonderful" to include other body parts? "It's full of tits, willies and Palace" maybe?

Curtailing the pack mentality of football supporters by pressuring us to think before we join in a chant is a good thing. Those Chelsea fans who once chucked abuse at Paul Canoville could have done with a bit of a reality check. I'm sure a lot meant the hate but some were probably just joining in without thought. Stop the mindless ones and those who are more entrenched will feel less comfortable. There is no escaping the absence of publicly gay players and addressing the culture that prevents them coming out wouldn't be a bad thing.
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

Shame on you mate. I don't agree with your interpreatio0n of the 'hate speech' laws. They were brought in because of problems with Islamic preachers. People like you want to widen out and restrict others...that was not the intent. Katie Hopkins makes a good living commenting while these 'hate speech' laws exist so I think your interpretation is one that exists in your own head. You can stick your shame where the sun don't shine. No she got sacked for awful hateful comments and rightly so. Shame on you for being so narrow minded you think we can chant homophobic songs and people won't be hurt. Just like monkey chants, no difference. Only a idiot would think different IMO

Just like monkey chants, no difference. Only a idiot would think different IMO Like I say, stick your ridiculous beta male shame up where the sun don't shine. I don't care what you think. I only care about the thoughts of people I respect. I don't support those chanting stupid immature things at people at football grounds. But I also don't support people who regard 'words as violence' and want to censor away everything they oppose. Real life isn't a library and certain wallies think that they can turn football grounds into them.

Real life isn't a library and certain wallies think that they can turn football grounds into them. So in your world chanting racism is ok? Would honestly like to know the answer as you appear to say words arent violent and therefore anyone can say what they like. Hate speach therefore shouldn't exist and we can all say whatever we like including racism? That's what your saying or I'm miss interpreting your posts? Edited by Goldfiinger (09 Aug 2017 7.48pm)
