It is a bit like a battlefield of old when opposing armies would shout insults at each other to wind each other up. The Vikings and Saxons did it to each other, so it has just continued on.
A lot of chants are started by one small group of people in the crowd and every starts joining in, most are not pre planned by the whole stadium beforehand
Re: your question about alcohol, we don't have the same attitude as (some) Americans. We don't drink to get drunk, we drink to get into a good mood.
That's a valid answer. My last visit to America I ordered a second glass of wine and it was clear I'd stepped over a line. You're allowed to drink, but you're not supposed to enjoy it!
@@lumpyfishgravy 🤣 Worse than that, I ordered a round for the table - AND THEY DIDN'T RECIPROCATE!!!
@@Badgersj bastards!
though i am a german, i like you, folk keep your good mood.
80% for love of country and 20% for the booze 🥃
Accept when we lose then its 20% hatred and 80% booze

80% bollocks, mr Wagstaff. Possible dyslexia creeping in ?
Lol you already on booze ?
20% for country if we are lucky rest is booze 🤣🤣 I'm
Football & Beer go hand in hand in the UK, it's the culture. Nothing like a few pints & a catch up with your mates on match days 👌
I suggest 90% of fans on a Saturday go nowhere near a pub
@@simontomlinson6484 Maybe, but they probably had a few pints in the stadium in that case.
@@simontomlinson6484 I'm a season ticket at a non league club, I would say 90% are in the pub 😂
@@bowensgarageross-on-wye6133 maybe a non league trait then- I’m a ST in L1, I doubt even 10% go to the pub although that’s still almost 1,000 people. Half the fans are over 70!
@@simontomlinson6484 wel pensioners fc arent gonna have passion compared to a young fanbase. Do they clap their walking sticks together?
The one singing God Save The Queen was at a game in France !
Glad to see my County and local town represented, The Cross of Saint Cuthbert, Bishop Aukland, County Durham. Northeast England 🏴
I would say its 50% alcohol but the rest is just the thrill of being away with your team - with the real fans that travel to represent the team. I've never drank at away games but the buzz of being the away team is pure magic.
BS you don't follow UK football.
Indonesia is muslim and we ged fire in stadium
The jnterestjng part is that there's strictly no alcohol to be had in the stadium before, during or after the match. Any alcohol has to be consumed away from the ground. Many will go for a drink before and after the match. As a result, the matches where there are the strongest rivalries are almost always very early kick-offs so they don't have as much time to get drunk before the game. But, the songs will be sung no matter what state of inebriation there ie.
"He swings what around his head"? 🤣
You looked puzzled at the reference to "Escape to Victory"... its a old football related war film, that centered around a football game between POWs and the Germans and an escape from the dressing room, arguably the worst film ever made but sprinkled with stars like Pele, Micheal Caine and Slyester Stallone - the films only redeeming feature - it gave rise to the best quiz question ever - "Who was heavyweight Boxing Champion of the world, Won a Congressional Medal of Honour and played in goal for England" --- Sylvester Stalone (Rocky, Rambo and Escape to Victory) I'll get my coat
I'll give you a clue about the alcohol ratio at a football match. I don't remember about 80% of the away games I've been to
Beer and football are both culturally British things separately but mix easily and well. However I would say the things you are seeing in this video are more of a combination of passion for the team or sport and mob mentality, leading to creative scenes that mainly have no lasting damage.
Lesson no 1, learn to chant, In-ger-land. Then you'll fit right in (in England obs!)
We've always met up at the pub before the game. Then gone to the pub again after the game. In fact most things include the pub, or drinking in some form or another. Welcome to England 😁
Not a fan of football but can appreciate the enthusiasm and creativity of the fans 🙂👍
My Jamie Vardy first one! Love that 💙🦊 on a real note Idk why or how I got into you reacting to British stuff but I can’t stop watching, keep it up my guy
Your be surprised how quickly a football chant will take hold of you and your pick up the words because they are so electric & infectious. Not a great football fan but could not believe the buzz & atmosphere of the crowd when your at a match. You can't help but join in.
The Falklands war was in 1982. Over 250 UK military died. Many remember it and the loss to their families of soldiers and sailors, many Welsh. (The French President Mitterrand embargoed the sale of French weapons to Argentina but had already supplied Argentina with Exocet missiles that killed over 80 Brits. The French owned company that made the Exocets breached the presidential embargo, stayed in Argentina during this war, continued to train the Argentinians in their use of Exocets and somehow 3 launch sites that didn’t work and couldn’t be fixed by the Argentinians before the war,suddenly started working and launched missiles.)
You'll find that chants and songs change all the time; Different players, opponents, tournaments, form of your team, etc.
Love your videos mate 👍
I went to my first football match in 1970 at the age of seven. Sang my heart out and I've been singing at the football ever since. By 17, I was drinking and singing, which improves things but I certainly need a drink to make me sing at the football.
Well Done Conor. The amazing thing about that was that they were ALL Away from home in other European Countries. (Not sure about one of them though) You said you wanted to know who that Scottish Guy they sang about was and he was the Scottish Manager in those days. They were England fans mocking the Scots in their own Stadium in Glasgow as England qualified for The World Cup Finals in Moscow and Scotland was eliminated by.......England:) In the old days there used to be 134,000 Scottish fans at that match between Scotland and England.
It's definitely a combination of both but at most games I'd say 70% are actually sober but it's very different at tournaments such as the world Cup or major finals of any Competition
I was about to say this too, 30% of it is alcohol, 70% just pure mentality.
BS you don't follow UK football.
@@darrellpowell6042 have done all my life I'm over 50 now and that's been my experience
The one thing every true English person loved, was the Queen. Can see it in the chants aswell.
these are international teams or more specifically chants for the England international games so yeah there will be a lot of alcohol consumed by some and some by a lot but just watch club team fans with much less of the alcohol factor (still some) and you will see its a love for your team (club or country) a love for the game of football, for many its like their religion and they follow whole heartedly. We grow up on it, all my kids could kick a ball before they could walk five steps.
Pissed or sober we're the same sweetheart 🏴⚽🌹
Most people would sing the chants with ur without alcohol it’s for the passion of the game
There's 2 types of Englishmen, there's men like Tolkien and these fine fellows
Alcohol is like the fuel starting a car, once it’s in, the fun begins and continues on from there.
football has important historical value in uk in the middle ages it would literally be play between 2 towns/villages as in the goals were the town/village entrance and teams would kick the "ball" between themselves to and from that town/village till the alotted time was up. Many local disputes were decided this way as an alternative to outright battle
Yeah, it's manditory in England to start learning chants at 6 months old. Get them started early.
I agree with this I started taking my son at 6 months old he’s now 13 years old and understands what happens on match day stays at match day
See what your looking at is the American dream times ten. Life,love and the pursuit of happiness. Plenty life bubbling at the British football. They all love football and all happy to sadden the opposition. You got the American dream right there.
I was born in the north east of England, and I've been a Newcastle fan, since birth. There was kind of no other option in our house 😆. Anyway I moved to Somerset at 25, they're all Liverpool or Man U down here 🙄. We took our grandkids up to Newcastle. My husband and their mum, surprised me with a tour of St James' Park. So now, they tell their Dad and Grandad, who are staunch Liverpool fans, that they support Newcastle. That went down like a lead balloon 😆😂. And yes I teach them the clean chants, all the time. They've also spoken the odd Geordie word, since learning to talk.
I've been out putting all during world cup in London. And it was soo much fun!!!!
Gordon Strachan = Scot who played for various Scottish and English teams, notably Manchester United and Leeds United (famous for being enthusiastic tacklers, enjoying the odd internecine punch up now and again). Then Gordon went into football management. Here fans are referring to his management of the Scotland team 2013-2017. 2018 the World Cup took place in Russia. Hence the Scots ‘aren’t going to Moscow’. Scotland vs England matches are infamous. Although the Scotland team rarely features many Premier League players of huge note, the Scots play like men possessed and as a team. This World Cup, though, the Scotland team includes Andrew Robertson of Liverpool (yay); John McGinn of Aston Villa; Scott McTominay of Man Utd; Billy Gilmour on loan to Norwich from Chelsea and Kieran Tierney from Arsenal and the only PL player I’ve heard of who’s from the Isle of Man. Scotland might qualify for the World Cup group B with play offs against England, USA and Iran. The Scots have to beat Wales and Ukraine first to get into this group stage. Nothing much rhymes with USA but there’s a fair chance there’ll be a chant featuring their nickname. NB - ‘septics’ doesn’t rhyme with much either.
You do a LOT of videos dude 😳
It is 5% alcohol, 95% class upbringing.
hahaha interesting animal xD We over here think the same towards you yanks ;) much love to you guys
Yeah, they were in Germany haha
Aston villa or Birmingham city.
In answer to your question, what if you take alcohol out of the equation? The British would cease to exist. You're seeing the British as they've always been. The night before Agincourt (in 1415) the French were in church praying for victory, while the British were making their way towards the battlefield, pissed, chanting and aggressive. Guess who won?
The only time rival football fans come together is for a England match, they sang the 2 German bombers song in London, it was after we beat Germany, what can be a rare occasion, 5-1 before the World Cup in Japan 20 years ago.
Sunshine on Leigh sung at Scottish Cup final absaloutley brilliant 👏
Leith
9:30 "4 world cups in our hand, deutschland, deutschland, 4 world cups in our hand and 3 European as well"
I'm not a football fan, unless it's England playing an important game. The chants are amazing; they use famous music to chant their stuff to. I had four brothers and one of them loved football. The first game he ever watched was Manchester City competing with another team. Manchester City won and from that day he supported them. They've got great colours as well - pale blue and white. You may be a little shy or inhibited but if you came over to England specifically to watch an England game you would throw caution to the wind; I could see it as you sang along and clapped. Great one Connor.
there are at least 22 countries in the world we have had no claim over except that we conquered the countries that conquered them Some of the songs/chants get reused over several matches/years but many are made up on the spot and sung to common tunes that everyone knows which is part of how everyone picks up on them so quickly
we would still chant...its in our blood!
Always be a lot of Charlie taken at football amongst certain elements too.
Escape to Victory theme?! That's The Colonel Bogey March, used it lots of war films.
Great escape*
We are awesome, Conner. We really are 😂
I think " your shit but your birds are fit" is the best, an insult at the Swedish team but a compliment on the attractive Swedish women all in one sentence
To answer your question - no there are not songs you have to teach your kids, hilarious as that idea is. Think how quickly you picked up some of the chants having never heard any of them before. There's some creativity there, but they're also simple enough that you learn them on the fly.
If you're gonna pick a team, come to Liverpool! We're extremely successful, we have loads of chants, and anfeild hits different then other stadiums. Playing at anfeild has been described as "Playing in hell"
A lot of these chants are made up during the game people just join in as they go along - a bit like a Mexican wave 🙋
That’s all they do when not attending matches at football tournaments and when at the matches aswell.
England will be playing the USA on the group stages if the World Cup later this year. Will be interesting to see what chants there are. USA are also playing Iran, so that could get tasty.
"Anyone but Arsenal" You can't half go off some people Connor!
I would say without the alcohol more would be in tune.
Could you react to rugbys greatest kicker jonny wilkinson indont think any one has done one on him before.
Connor, you'll be welcome at Portsmouth (Pompey) Just search for Portsmouth FC videos.
100 percent love for the country, 100 percent alcohol!!
I'm surprised you haven't done Reactions to Queen Music Videos.
The Barmy Army in Australia have a whole selection of songs aimed at the convicts on there penal colony well worth a look
You definitely have the understanding of how a football crowd acts. You'd fit right in.
Gordon Strachan was Scotlands manager
we are brought but on group singing and chanting through assembly’s
England v USA November world cup.
German football fans are nuts, they'd probably get rolled in the elevator. lmao
Also check out Liverpool ;) Check out their atmosphere You'll Never Walk Alone live is so chilling
heard better mate
3:36 Football fans who travel locally to the match or those that travel a distance in the UK or abroad will drink some alcohol before and after the match. As these fans spend quite a bit of money to pay for tickets, travel and chat with fellow fans, their entitled to at least one drink, unless they are the designated driver. At a reasonable guess its 90% have had one alcoholic drink.
Tottenham are the team for you if you don't want arsenal. They're local rivals.
That was The Great Escape theme tune not Escape To Victory.
It's 100% alcohol influence..... and proud of it !!! lol
1:35... They are at the stadium under the stands where the bars are. If you took booze out of it.. they would be like yanks. 8:00... Yeah, they're in Deutchland.
Respectfully that was an unnecessary question, it doesnt matter if you are drunk or not, what matters is that it happend so you just join in and enjoy yourself while confidently chant at the top of ypur voice.
Hey Connor x
To answer your question: These chants exist without alcohol. They are also fuelled by alcohol. They're deliberately offensive and also tolerated. It's slightly difficult to explain. You have to be as offensive as possible (but creatively) and the better you are at cutting close to the bone without causing genuine insult is how the game is played. The sentiment is almost never meant, but it's how cutting your insult is. Banter is what it's called. Enjoy, foreigners!
You got support Leeds United we got a big connection to America and American manager 😜
Pick Leeds we're shit on the pitch, but we make some noise
To answer your question....its not taught its learnt independently
Hey Connor, love the videos, Manchester City will welcome you with open arms. Keep up the good work 👏 🙌 👍 🇬🇧
You've GOTTA GOTTA GOTTA GOTTA GOTTA check out American v English football chants tho it might be a bit embarrassing for an American,it's all good banter Connor and it's as faf
It wasn't the Escape to Victory theme, it was The Great Escape.
If your roommate is an Arsenal fan then you should support Tottenham Hotspur (their main rivals).. Plus we have louder fans👍. Cooommee onnn youuu spuuurs!!!
You just learn by going and listening! Alcohol helps but it's not the only factor you can't drink whilst the teams are playing, but that's not to say they've not all been drinking before; again not everyone is on the booze!
50/50
Can you react to Jamie Webster singing poor Scouse Tommy. It's a Liverpool song.
Good to see you like our football chants, I can remember you saying in one of your previous football videos that you liked a commentator when Messi scored a goal. His name is Ray Hudson, he’s worth watching, see what you think. kzhead.info/sun/lqV-Z6aQeX1qiHk/bejne.html Also an Italian commentator that was crazy was Tiziano Crudeli, kzhead.info/sun/hZ2OmqmifpVqoaM/bejne.html. Keep up the good work.
You should watch the funniest football chants
Even with no alcohol it’s the exact same
I’d say that the mixture of alcohol and a large group of guys together it’s gotta be 70% down to the alcohol!
Each team has its own historical football song. Liverpool and Celtic - ‘You’ll never walk alone’. West Ham - ‘I’m forever blowing bubbles’. Chelsea - the dreadful, ‘Blue is the colour’. Scotland = for some reason best known to themselves -‘Yes, sir! I can boogie’ by Baccarat. Great song. Ireland - ‘Sweet Caroline’, although the English have pinched that now. Small kids go to matches with their dads. They don’t drink alcohol but they learn the tunes.
Drink will be a big influence, but a lot will be like me, I don’t drink but fuck me I will lose my voice singing for the mighty boys in royal blue! (Birmingham City, we are shit)
Crackhead then?? UTMOFOV.
For reference (or at least what I can work out), countries the England fans were in in this video include: Ireland, Scotland, France, Germany, South Africa, and Brazil (?). The zoomed clip where the national anthem is played was from a game at the 2016 European Championships in France and it is estimated 500,000 England fans travelled over for the tournament. Likewise, at the 2006 World Cup in Germany (I think the last video about the bombers, please correct me if I’m wrong someone) it was estimated over 100,000 fans travelled there too. Wherever England go, the people follow.
Most UK stadiums don't allow alcohol bro.
That video is England fans . They come from all over the Country . In England alcohol is tightly controlled and the Police have a lot of powers to control matches , other Countries don't . Club games the atmosphere can be even better . With both sets of fans (segregated nowadays) coming up with chants , mostly generic but a lot of spontaneous ones directed at the opposition . It's not always the premiership that has the best fans .
We don't need ANY alcohol to get like this over football........but it helps. Long suffering Tottenham Hotspur fan here.
Newcastle united, best fans in the country!
For English football culture, try a film football factory
