- After countless requests for this particular video, we had to give you guys what you wanted. Sit back and enjoy me trying to make sense of these legendary chants for my American Fiancé.
Saying Maggie Thatcher isn't popular in the north is quite the understatement. The weekend after her timely passing the #2 song on the UK charts was "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead".
she aint popular down south either mate
@@jessemacarain5978sadly, she is :-(
Plenty of people in the North voted for Thatcher, the ones who understand that communism failed for example 🤡
Thatcher destroyed poverty in the UK, the contrast from the 70s to late 80s was vast, almost everybody was far better off because you now, communism doesn't work mate hahaha.
she was almost as unpopular as JT
She is the best leader UK had
Part of the Maggie's dead one is that she blamed the Hillsborough disaster on the "drunken Liverpool fans" and sided with the police refusing to open a proper investigation when she was PM. Years later her part in the cover up was revealed in a paper.
Aye, the police were useless, but the fact is that Liverpool fans were drunk, and the main cause of the problem. Scousers really are a bunch of whinging losers.
As a Liverpool fan and my grandmother survivor of that it was pure karma and especially now truth revealed that we were innocent all a long
Fucking hell... pull up a chair everybody... here we go again.
@@mattiasbarnett3777 Your nan might have been innocent, but I knew (he's dead now) a policeman who was there, an ex-marine and very good man. And he agreed that the police response was terrible, but had no doubts that the basic problem was a large bunch of drunken Liverpool louts without tickets pushing their way through crowd. That the useless Chief of Police lied to cover up his own mistakes does not change that - whatever the report might say.
@@tomarmstrong5244 so was my fault in Paris when almost happened again 99% was police fault as the Hillsborough independent panal proved it was NOT Liverpool fans fault and those that still believe it is are pure Liverpool hating scum
The word nonce comes from prison, sex offenders had N.O.N.C.E. On a board outside their cell (not on normal courtyard exercise) so the guards knew not to let them out with other inmates
That has been reputed and there is also evidence it comes from Victorian period where police and others would refer to those committing acts of homosexuality as "not of normal criminal element" ... Which is also wrong. As it was a word for a gay man long before then!
The dictionary, which has for more than a century been an authority on etymology, says nonce may derive from the word nance, a derogatory word for an effeminate or gay man. The word, the origin of which is unknown, may alternatively derive from the Lincolnshire dialect word nonse, meaning a good-for-nothing.
So how did the 'not on normal courtyard exercise' legend arise? It is most likely a backronym, an acronym formed from a word that already existed.
Other examples of backronyms include posh which is thought to stand for 'port over, starboard home', a reference to the cabins on the cooler side of ocean liners occupied by rich Brits on their way to and from India in the days of the Empire. Posh, more likely, derives from the Persian safed-posh (literally 'white robes'), a term for wealthy people.
@@razerow3391 it’s not reputed that’s true it was on prisoners as they were protection cases
The celery chant is an old Gillingham chant from the 90s. We had a 21 stone keeper and used to throw it at him during games. To this day celery is still banned in the stadium.
Chelsea sang it first
Adam Johnson's trial was 1.7 miles down the road from me at Bradford Crown Court.
While he was in prison he was filmed saying he "wished he r__ped her for a 6 year sentence."
Urika Johnson was a TV Weather presenter turned TV presenter. She was most known for her 8 years presenting UK Gladiators.
And shooting stars
Brass nail = tail is what women of the night were called back in the day I believe
Just to point out, as I found this out recently, NONCE is an acronym from prison, where peados were separated from other prisoners during exercise time. It stood for 'not on normal courtyard exercise'
I love these guys, I’m from Leicester living in the north east, and my lass moved over here from the US and she has 0 interest in football but I told her if Newcastle and Sunderland fans are in the same pub… don’t get involved xD
I'm so happy for you mate, so glad you managed to escape Leicester, you must have so many horror stories from your time there.
Ask anyone who's lived/living in Leicester, they'll all say it's a shit'ole, I've moved further and further out as time's gone on......I now live in Coalville so hardly a step up!
@@PhilHarrisTV what's happening in Leicester is known as white flight
I live in Newcastle and wise choice for telling her not to go to the pub if Sunderland and Newcastle fans together because it's just slander against sunderland
Regarding Robin with the chant "she said no" it's because the wife of Robin did not like Manchester and preferred to stay in London.
It was for the rape case while he was Arsenal.
The word "peadophile" in the caption is actually spelt (American: spelled) wrong. This is probably deliberate to avoid the video getting tagged. The correct spelling is "ae" which is actually an 'ash', a hangover from Old English / Latin and one of the six forgotten letters. You still find it in words like "Caesar", "paediatric" and "encyclopaedia". When Noah Webster simplified American spelling he replaced most of the 'ashes' with the letter 'e', hence the differences in both spelling and pronunciation. 'Ash' has a long 'e' sound like a double 'e' whereas a single 'e' is short, abrupt, almost curt.
When it is derived from the OE it is pronounced more like a shortened ayer, as still found in the various 'Geordie' accents.
@@tomarmstrong5244 You are, of course, right. I chose to liken it to a double 'e' for simplicity's sake. It is actually an 'a''e' sound run together with the 'e' sound dominant - shorter than a double 'e' but longer than a single 'e'. 'Ayee' with the 'ee' stressed would be a good approximation, but this is not present in many English dialects, and so is not familiar to a non-native (i.e. American) speaker.
What these guys said!!
Thanks for saving me the typing

I guess the whole working class in UK sang together with the Liverpool fans on the Maggie chant.😂🥳🤗🇧🇻
It was the intelligent part of the working class who voted Maggie into power three times sunshine. You just won't find any in Liverpool.
@@tomarmstrong5244 And that's why they all lost their jobs and had to deal with a tax so unpopular that credit brokers had to disregard debts coming from failure to pay it because most of the country would be ineligible.
Or any Tory MP
In Scotland we used to carve neeps until pumpkins became available.
Try carving a neep...😂😂😂
Same in NE England.
@@tomarmstrong5244 I'm in the NE too and I'll never forget the combo smell of hot candle and burning turnip lol
The “she said no” part of the RVP chant is because his wife said to not leave Arsenal
Na it was because he got accused of sexual assault in Holland when young whilst at Arsenal
No it’s not. It’s cos he sexually harassed a woman
@@imbrenco as a gooner, I know what the chant was for. It wasn’t for that, it was because his wife said not to leave Arsenal.
@@matthewsimpson6974 bro as a gooner as well it was about the r*** case. Yes she didn’t want to go but that line was specifically because of the case.
It was for the r*pe case while he was Arsenal.
Just a side note when maragret thatcher died. The witch is dead from wizard of oz hit no.1 on the charts
Is this the same Margaret Thatcher that became The first Prime Minister to win three elections?
She must have been unpopular !
THANK YOU. Been getting addicted to these reaction videos recently, and it annoys me when I endlessly see guys just asking for explanations in the comments. You should have explained the hatred circle about Derby-Leicester-Forest more though.
Are you kidding? Pumpkins are an American tradition adopted here that replaced the traditional, 'jack o lantern' made from a hollowed out turnip. Harder to do and harder work, but exactly the same principle. Pumpkins are bigger and easier, but it's the American adaption of a British custom/tradition. How many years of your childhood did you spend outside the UK? Btw, the celery thing, it isn't someone's name, it's just one of those weird, abstract eccentricities we're famous for. The bizarre is what gives the humour, ask Monty.
ita an american adaptation of an irish tradition* . coming from the ancient pagan celebration of samhain.
@@jameso9221 Mostly. The Jack O Lantern, thing originates in Ireland, but kinda sprang up simultaneously in Somerset, England. The lantern custom only originates from the 19th century in both cases. In Somerset it's called Punkie Night. Samhain is a much older Celtic tradition, but the Jack O Lantern is kinda a recent adaption. Samhain in Autumn. Beltane (aka Walpurgis nacht, the meeting of the witches) in spring. They traditionally mark the changing of the seasons. I know you probably know all this, but I've mentioned for the sake of any other reader who might be interested. BTW, I used to live in Slovakia and they celebrate Beltane by dancing naked around a fire. My ex was a witch.
Love the vids guys, I think when you do these though you shouldn’t pause until the chant finishes and then talk about it and give context and stuff so the the timing isn’t messed with. Keep up the great content
Ulrika-ka-ka-ka Jonsson was a presenter on Gladiators andon the panel show Shooting Stars. She also had an affair with England Manager Sven-Goran Eriksson in the early 2000's
Just found your channel , and loving it, looking forward to more amazing vidoes, UP THE TOON 🍻🍻🍻
The Park chant is even funnier because Park was their own player.
I heard Park HATED that chant.
City fan here who spent ten years on Wearside and if you're going to take the missus to a match, take her to the Tyne and Wear derby at Sunderland for the away vibe if the Maccams get up or you go down which I can't see that happening now you've got an owner with almost as much money as Al Mubarak.
As a toon fan, this was gold :)
Chelsea fans used to throw celery on to the pitch. I don't know when/why it started!
Ulrika was on Shooting Stars and presented Gladiators (remember that?). She was also known for having an affair with Sven Goran Erikson, England manager at the time.
As a scouser and a liverpool fan, knowing the history between Maggie and what she did to liverpool and her absolutely disgraceful handling of the Hillsborough disaster, the fact she died on my 20th birthday is the greatest gift I will ever receive.
The whole of Scotland celebrated with you especially the green and white side of Glasgow
@@Garngad_bhoy the whole of the north celebrated 😂🎉
Not sure who commented that Park loved that song... a couple of years ago he actually released a statement via Man Utd to say that it was offensive and asked for fans to stop singing it.
It’s factual. He can stick his offence.

Gotta subscribe now I know you’re a toon fan, HOWAY THE LADS!
akasha and fen happy Halloween 🎃 thanks for the content
According to the stories, the celery tradition comes from a renowned Chelsea fan called Mickey Greenaway. In the 1980s, a song would be sung called Ask Old Brown that went: "Ask old Brown for tea and all the family, if he doesn’t come, we’ll tickle his bum with a lump of celery." i actually knew mickey greenaway back in the late 70's, used to play 3 card brag with him.
Is he still alive mate?
@@Isleofskye i doubt it, he was quite a bit older then me back then, i was 19ish back then and i'm 63 now
@@greygreen5610 Cheers mate.
There was a poignant video of The Shed Boys on here from around 1967 and you could, clearly, see a teenager turn to the camera, and his Granddaughter said he is dead now and as it was 55 years ago,it is chilling to think many of those boys in that video are, probably, no longer with us.
The Celery song came about at boring away matches, sung then clumps of celery were throw all over the place. I forget which away match had lead up to celery becoming the veg of choice, but a large contingent of Chelsea away fans broke away from a police escourt by jumping into a field, which just happened to be growing celery. A comical fight ensued with clumps of celery being pulled up and thrown at each other. There were also cards made up with ICF on them... Inter Celery Firm, taking the piss out of Wet Spam (West Ham). I don't know where you got your version from, but it wasn't Mickey. Who stayed at my house when venturing to Pudsey outside Leeds. Mickey sadly died in 1999, and Danny Harkins, Babs and a few others organised a going away do at Stamford Bridge, only 600 there quite select my ticket number was 589 haha. We've also got a plaque mounted in Stamford Bridge also, you can see that on the Facebook group called 'Making a Plaque for Mickey Greenaway...Zigger, Zagger'
@@ChelseaPensioner-DJW type in origin of celery song in google and your see what i'm saying about mickey. sad to hear of his passing, i guessed he would be dead, he was a lot older then me at the time i knew him. i knew babs and danny harkins too, travelled to many away games with them, was also a guy called shaun, who ended up becoming a steward at the ground. by the way your not david webb the player by any chance?
That Pumpkin Is Really Impressive Akasha.. A Really Good Effort Duck.
Alreet bonny lad and lass fellow geordie and toon fan here 👋
Brass is cockney rhyming slang for tart, brass clart = tart
Thatcher Killed All The Mining Towns..She Was More Vile Than The Chants Could Ever Be.
People definitely carve pumpkins in the UK, but it's bigger in the US. The tradition originates in the UK.
Started with swedes/turnips if I remember rightly 😁
That was a spooky good Pumpkin Fen.🥳🤗🇧🇻
People do carve pumpkins in the UK, in West Yorkshire you see them everywhere on halloween, whether they're in people's windows or outside their houses, and I know people do it in London too. I mean in Primary School in West Yorkshire they had us carving pumpkins so it's definitely done here in the UK, I guess people in some areas just aren't as interested in it as other areas because it's a lot of effort for what it is and as you know if you have to put a lot of effort into something for not much reward, Brits will generally avoid it.
But my point is some Northerners do still do it as it's done all through Yorkshire and we have pumpkin farms where you can buy them, I just don't know about places like Newcastle and whether they do it or not.
You guys should watch the beauty of football great video
Go on the toon what a king
hey titus bramble was good at wigan, problem was he randomly thought he was a striker and would attempt to take on everyone in front of him and we'd concede
That adam johnson chant was class fair play
Hi I'm half arab also (egypt) frm manchester,looking forward to your reactions,ive never seen carved pumpkins up here either
That ronaldo accusation wasn’t bollocks pal, he paid her off to shut her up, innocent people don’t do that
Easier to just pay when you're as wealthy as him
Not necessarily. Under a week's wages for him and he avoids all the Court Drama and endless bad publicity because if you throw enough mud then some sticks especially as other fans hate him.
I'm American married to a Brit and I'm a huge Man City fan! A none vile chant but funny as hell to Americans is the Greasy Chip Butty chant since it's to a John Denver song (a very mainstream/almost uncool) person to choose. And although we pronounce pedophile definitely we do use the same sound for pediatrics (ee sound instead of eh), so us Americans are the weird ones on this word.
That's a Sheffield Utd/Yorkshire chant I believe.
Wait, a posh northerner too? 😂
Weyyyy up the Toon man, even though we sound like we speak RP! Haha 💪🏻
Halloween is an Irish holiday that was brought to the states back in the 1800's.
Ulrika started off as a TV weather girl , celery has been a Chelsea song for years not sure why maybe it closely rhymes with CFC , Chelsea fans use to throw sticks of celery in the air when they had standing areas, there was a mobile porn footage passed around of a woman that looks like John Terry's mum , probably not her but football fans jump on an opportunity like that, John Terry's mum doesn't deserve it but John did 😂
15:58 mate not popular in the North is a bit understatement
I lived in Libya (Tobruk) 1966-1967 !!!
A video on cricket would be appreciated
From the north west of England. Dont know how far the slang is spread but "brass" in my part of the world means prostitute (possibly Manc slang but don't take my word for it)
I guess it’s popular to chant gay slurs at soccer games. It happened when I was in Brazil watching a game. When the MLS started in atlanta the games were played in a predominantly lgbqt area and in a college football stadium since the Mercedes Benz stadium construction was behind schedule. This tradition was carried on and yes you all nailed it, it went over like a lead balloon. After the second game georgia tech was about to pull the plug if it didn’t stop.
We do carve pumpkins. You can even buy stencils from places like Tesco at Hallowe'en and they come with a little tool you use to "trace" the design leaving little dots you score along.
Big up from Newcastle 🤙
not saying you're not a catch Fen, but goddamn you're a lucky bloke mate!
Definitely hitting above his weight...lol
Hold on Toon, Adam Johnson played for Newcastle as well. And Boro.
He played in the Newcastle youth squad
Get her to watch Football Factory with ya
Ashley Cole has some savage songs like, you should find them.
you say we are shite, did you forget to mention you aint beat us in decades loool
Number 6 is done to the tune of Kumbaya. You know, "Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya. Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya....
Geordie fan what a call from grace
I'm British I'm nine and I'm going to Wembley to watch saints it's ducking mental
Everyone carves pumpkin in England haha
13:19 not by someone you guys potential budget is more than 75% in the whole Premier League its like idk comparing U.S military spending to i dunno Poland or UK or any other country in the world idk why that comparison but i think its easy to understand that way :d
Yes, we scream at the TV, because the team and ref might hear us. And yes, it could get verbally, but when you unexpected win (PSV-Arsenal 2-0), it's a very happy occasion. That we are not in the stadium, doesn't mean we are not in the stadium.
Does that make some sence?
Bramble, the goat 😂
defo not for Newcastle
@@paulguise698 trust me I know bro, the original Harry Maguire.
"Brass", English slang term for money, i.e. "brass in pocket"; as well as effrontery and in an alternative context, also slang for a prostitute. "Brass", the metallic body of a cartridge case, usually made of brass.
Nonce is actually prison slang. Back in the day, prisoners who were deemed at risk from other inmates, usually as a result of the crime the6 co,muted, specially such as hurting women and children were taken off normal courtyard excersise to protect them, on their doors would be written "N.O.N.C.E ‐ Not On Normal Courtyard Excersise, so that the prison guards knew to keep them away from, the gen pop.
5:13 Yep... That was Manchester United chant...
Adam Johnson got six years and did half his sentence. He did the rest on licence. He kinda grassed himself up with looking at animals doing it too.
Yes lad, didn't know you where a toon fan ⚫⚪⚫⚪
Hiya Davey, have you Subscribed to The Toon Review CZcams channel? its really great
yeah you laugh about south and laugh at celery...but its chelsea
theres ones with jimmy saville and gary glitter boris johnson
Ah weii eii, didn't know you were a fellow mag.
Bro wait till you see the ones about the queen "lizzies in a box in a box lizzzies in a boooxxx"
"I only know four names I'm supposed to not like". Sounds like this has been beaten into her. One is Mike Ashley, One is Sunderland 😂 What are the other two? "Mackems and Sports direct?
She is cute😀
13:35 Universidad Catolica, juntos vibremos con ardor
Nonce, isn’t slang it’s an acronym. Sex offenders and those down for beating or killing women and children are separated from the general population in prison for their protection. The officers have a notice that’s on the cell door (I think) about that prisoner to keep them separate during exercise periods. The Nonce acronym is N.ot O.n N.ormal C.ourtyard E.xercise..
Newcastle on top. up the toon
Gladiators and shooting stars is why ulrika ka ka ka ka kaaaaaa is famous
Jihadi John One is goated
Ulrika Johnson became famous for being incredibly fit and cute.
The fact that he doesn't understand why Maggie being dead is a cause for celebration is very much connected to why he says without any doubt that the allegations against Ronaldo are bollocks, and to the fact that in the Frankie Boyle video he said that Frankie was once great, but not today.
Tory trying to pose as something else
Park did not like that chant - he said he wished they'd stop singing it.
Too poor up north to afford a pumpkin lol…hey you started the divide banter lol
Ped/Pead. Latin/Greek. We spell/say it right, Americans not so much. These are all tame - there's plenty around that frankly would get you on the spot arrested for public order; that one about the Munich air disaster that shall not be mentioned (though is on youtube) as an example makes me feel ill as a Liverpool fan, it's just a nono - though the perfect retort to some of the Hillsborough ones. There's some sick puppies around.
get some leeds chants in there hahahaha
I just can't believe that you've never carved a pumpkin to be honest...
14:17 she's brass means she's worth a brass coin
Fuckin hell lad you’ve just brainwashed her to our ways ant ya 🤣
06:26 but equally “bender” is also British slang for a homosexual man, so context counts! 😂 09:06 actually that’s just the guy who posted the video that can’t spell! It is spelt pae in the U.K. not pea. Besides which in the states you spell it pedo not peado.
It is derived from the Latin for child pais, to the Greek paid to pädia in German finally to paed in English.
Like paediatric. That’s how we spell it in the U.K. but Americans spell it pediatric.
11:13 yes nonce is used for that kind of person but also generally for a rapist or sexual offender. All pedos are nonces but not all nonces are pedos.
Tevez didn’t win anything at city, the same song is sung when Di Maria left Manchester United.
Yep no trophies and suprise suprise Tevez became a mercenary at City too 😂
There is always worse, but they are a bit too much. Specially the hillsborough/munich58 ones. And even they are kinda tame compared to some from non english countries
up north we did turnips coz we was poor
Great reaction. Definitely a lot worse ones! Especially Man U and Liverpool ones.
You say Sunderland are shite but you havent beaten us in 11 years (But I suppose we can let you off for at least the last 6)
Try the old firm chants ,,maybe not allowed on youtube ,,do an auld firm viewing not the crppy documentary on youtube thats from 30 year ago 🤣
The Ronaldo rumours weren’t ‘bollocks’ by the way, he still hasn’t been proven innocent nor have the accusations been proven true, either, so it’s all up in the air which is why people still use it as an attack line. (Cases have been thrown out due to evidence being mishandled, illegally collected etc, nothing about a lack of evidence thereof).
You do not have to prove yourself "innocent" just Guilty beyond "Reasonable Doubt"...
There is no such thing as "proved innocent"
@@lyncohn9505 If only you knew how apt that is, at this very moment...
The Alleged incident occured in 2009. Since then he has missed numerous pre season USA tours with clubs Juventus, Real Madrid, and Man Utd, as it is believed he would be picked up by the US Police or the FBI , if he went back to the US. He hasnt been to the US since in 13 years
@Sym I am learning the hard way after 68 years in London that is the "Theory" but the "Practice" is somewhat different...
The “she said no Robin” was because she wanted RVP to stay at Arsenal
I'll keep this short and sweet, Paulie, but you're wrong. He was arrested in 2005 for rape, but it was dismissed.
