Although I must say (surprised it hasn't been mentioned?) there is something special about dragons fans at Kogarah singing 'the saints go marching in' when the dragons get on a roll.
Only because they are managing to string six words together without dribbling
is it really that unbelievable that singing AND watching can be done at the same time??? :shock:
Your post sums it up the rife individual mentality of aussie fans right there. Let's all sit in silence or discussing what was on TV last night rather than giving some vocal support to lift your team (which heaven forbid may even mean some actual interaction with your fellow supporters).
FFS you inbred spastic. Is singing the ONLY way to lift your team? Never heard a crowd cheer???
If I was on the field in the last 10 minutes of a tight game and needed a lift, and I hear the fans yelling encouragement, I'd lift. If instead I heard nice three part harmonies by some f*cking barbershop quartet, I'd give up.
No amount of singing can instill the combination of passion and pride in the true Australian tradition than a full throated "KILL ENNIS!!!!"
If singing lifted sporstmen like nothing else, how come pommy sportsmen are so f*cking sh*t? How come Morley was twice as good in a Roosters jumper as he ever was in a Lions one?
Nothing decent has ever been sung at a footy game either. Typical of the nancy boy attitudes of footy singers - Judas Priest wrote possibly the quintessential soccer fans song - United. You never hear anyone belting that out. Instead, we hear f*cking Gerry and the Pacemakers!!!! Go and watch Glee and toss off to that - because its just as sterile and pointless.
Stand on a hill and sing War Pigs and you might get people interested. Meanwhile, like the rest of the population, I'll settle for cheering.
