Whistling the Laurel and Hardy theme tune when policemen walked around the perimeter.
“Here we go here we go here we go”
“Roasted peanuts”
“You’re going to get you’re fǔcking head kicked in”

threats of bans were meant to stop violence, not standing etc.

"Away, away, away, away........*insert team*"

But more bizarrely, the old staple "1-0, 1-0, 1-0" or other chanting of the score if it was in your favour. I don't think I have heard that for years.

When playing Oxford Utd at home back in the 80's the chant of "You'll never make the Westway"

Attack; Attack - Attack, Attack, Attack!

Chant of Did you come in a taxi? to teams who brought a small number of fans to HQ.

Remember a night game versus Port Vale where they brought so few fans that the whole away end was closed and they plonked those Vale fans that did travel in Ellerslie Road.

Great OP Loftboy

Certainly got me thinking.

How about the back and forth chant between The Loft and The Paddock in the terrace days

We're the paddock, we're the paddock, we're the paddock, Shepherds Bush!

We're the loft boys, we're the loft boys, we're the loft boys, Shepherds Bush!

Used to love being in The Paddock when we played the big teams, always a lively game

'You've come all this way / And you've lost'

'Elton John's a homosexual' (amusing because just a statement of fact)

'With his bag of sweets/and his cheeky little smile/Arsene Wenger is a paedophile' (lower level of veracity, in fact probably slanderous, essentially non-malicious (and therefore humorous), though liable to end in a suspended sentence if you're a tweeting Joey Barton)

'The referee's a w*nker' (cathartically deafening post-match from the away end after, I think, a 0-1 defeat at Craven Cottage with Gerry in charge when Rob Steiner was getting penalised for just about every challenge he made - before being dismissed by Rob Styles for, as Robert Pryce memorably put it in The Guardian, 'a dive so melodramatic you regretted the absence of a mustachioed poisoner with a maniacal laugh')

Bag a sweets - I think that was previously Graham Rix (allegedly) who may or may not have been (again, allegedly) !?!

Brilliant, I’d forgotten that one. Bravo.
