| Quote: charlie caroli "Being a Westander, I can honestly say it doesn't bother me,I never swear in life so wouldn't do it at Sports games,but we are not talking about a few fans here, we have around 500- 1000 in the North Stand singing the Flute Song,or the Savile song so they are popular,now I acknowledge Derek has done some great things at the LSV since taking over,but he can't feed the North Stand with 5 loaves and 2 small fish, neither can he stop the North Stand singing these songs, we have tannoy announcements every game letting us know that foul and abusive language will not be tolerated,but what is the answer?Eject all the guilty fans
well said Charlie, whilst most people agree with some of the sentiments posted, I fail to see What Derek can do about it. He may be our leader but after all he isn't God. People will do exactly what they want disregarding the opinion of others, maybe one day they will grow a brain cell and say 'you know what I am getting a bit tired of all the stupid chants, lets do something different and be a bit more respectful'.

| Its about the 'woke up this morning' taking over as the song of choice, it was much louder on Thursday and as it takes off will replace one of the less savoury ones imo, especially if it becomes part of the players ritual. Used to love the Leigh Wino's one.

| Quote: GUBRATS "I've been to football games and heard worse , and thought it was funny , until watching MOTD with my parents and hearing it clearly on the TV
I prefer RL now for several reasons , one of those was the difference in support , ie being able to mix with opposition fans before and after
Yes there has always been individual swearing , and while I try to not do it myself , it happens within the emotion of the game
But within the ' songs/chants ' sung that include swear words there isn't a single one that is actually supportive/positive to the club or the team , every single one is abusive/aggressive aimed at the supporters of the team we are playing or Wigan
Anybody singing or supporting the singing of those songs/chants is an idiot , it isn't big and it isn't funny'"
Just as bad on away coaches when I take my daughter and "the enlightened few" are on the same coach giving it the Tourettes...
Works any you rub it I'm afraid

| Quote: Budgiezilla "Last night was bad, worst I've heard at LSV. The continuous chant of "You're F***ing sh**" was pathetic.....What's wrong with "can we play you every week" ??!!'"
Or "are you Widnes in disguise" or some such ....
We have a football following now, many of our fans are also Man United fans & it shows in the songs that carry over.
Don't get me wrong, I am a MUFC fan & born & raised in Mcr so I know the songs, what happens is this, those lads singing them are mid teens to late 20's, they eventually grow up & leave it behind, I was the same at that age, not defending it, just pointing out facts as I see them.
The North Stand is where 'the lad's' go, to drink & sing, some are lads, some are lads dad's & some have kids. If you really want to avoid it/protect your kids from it, then go in the West Stand ....
No, it shouldn't be that way, but who will stop it ?
On Thursday night I witnessed a Scouse steward shouting & swearing at other stewards in the N.S, "treat 'em like £UCK!N' Kids" & so on he was shouting about Leigh fans, so if the stewards have no self control, what hope for the rest ?

| Well I stand with my kids in the North Stand and both are graduates and I/they dont have a problem.As above change the songs..God forbid fighting in the North Stand amongst ourselves we'd be hung drawn and quartered.
We are in SL and we have a lot eyes upon us being the new kids on the block..LSV is a fortress,lets not make it a laughing stock..You don't always have to follow the leader,they soon shut up,if you dont.

I was singing it on Thursday when Mick was walking the kids past , but " sh!ite " is a bit different to F*****G and the peado song or a reference to the IRA IMO

| I took up Mr Beaumont and Mr Koukash's very generous offer yesterday and attended the Salford/Cas game, there was a good crowd on with both popular ends well attended especially the Cas end which was packed I believe they took 2K along.
Some posters on this thread are of the opinion that other teams chant obscene songs, well I must say it was not evident yesterday from both sets of supporters.
What is quite evident on this thread is the variation in self and life standards that people class themselves, unfortunately when other supporters from other clubs comment on the Leigh chants it is the all Leigh Fans who are tarnished with the same brush, not just those who believe it is right and proper to do so.
