Pathetic and embarrassing chanting

Whilst I see your point are we only allowed to sing about things that happened after we were born?

Hope not. I always enjoy a good hymn or the occasional rendition of the Wee Cooper of Fife (nickety nackety noo noo noo).

So you’re not allowed to have a moan on here if you want to attend the match then? Is that just limited to criticizing shit songs, or should people give up season tickets for having a go at Gooch or whatever.

It’s not being offended to call something out for being shit man.

Fans have being doing this for years, like if the team is shit then don't go.
 
The response to criticism is invariably, from some; “just don’t go”

The response to not going anymore is invariably, from some; “good riddance you pathetic loser. We don’t need your sort”.

First match I've been able to get to since March 2019. Absolutely loved it. I can't remember the last time I saw us win in person, and win so convincingly.

However, a contingent of our traveling fans were nothing short of embarrassing with their choice of chants.
The occasional "Fuck the IRA" chant was utterly ridiculous considering
1) James McClean wasn't even playing he wasn't even on the bench
2) 1996 was the last action of the IRA in this country. most of the idiots chanting this probably weren't even born then, and if they were they should know better.
3) Get the fuck over it. He hasn't played for us for years

The even more ludicrous chant was
"Sunderland boys were on a bender. Charlie Wyke is a sex offender".
Let's break that down shall we?
Sunderland boys on a bender sounds more like a homoerotic gangbang rather than a night on the booze, but of course not many things conveniently rhyme with sex offender and I doubt the inventor of the chant could manage to rhyme nonce.
Charlie Wyke is a sex offender - Wow. I mean, really? The bloke scored an absolute hat-full last season (shame he only managed 9 in the previous 2 seasons). An opportunity came up for him to sign a 3 year deal and he took it.
He followed the money. Like many of us would. You get next to nowt for loyalty these days. We need to stop being so f***ing precious about things.
Wyke didn't even play last night so what was the point?

We had an actual sex offender playing for Sunderland. A real one. A paedophile. Why do some of our lot think it's fine to throw that kind of slur around at anyone else? Particularly players who didn't leave on bad terms, they just left.

A great game with some excellent football from us, tainted by some of our lot who are frankly making themselves look as thick as a submarine door. I'd like to think that's not the case. We're better than this. Aren't we?
I won't even bother mentioning the morons who boo'd the taking the knee (for all of 3 seconds of it). I suspect if there's a venn diagram of the people who did that and the idiotic chants it would be a perfect circle.

Get a life you sad individual.
 
Our chants are lifting these days anyways. Copying the mags now ffs. What happened to the originality.

Standard default logic from the resident right wingers on here unfortunately.

People aren’t allowed to discuss their opinions of a largely negative situation and people should just not bother going.

Id be interested to know their views of what isndeeemed unacceptable and when it should be called out. Or should we all just turn a blind eye and not go and allow those with the loudest voice to crack on…?
 
We still have thousands chanting 'Im from Wallsend' which was funny once in a pre season game, and now makes no sense.

Here is the source material we lifted from the mags. It is shite like.

At least makes a little sense, unlike a song about Wyke.
