Who was singing "hes only got one leg"?

[bunnyscfc]

correct Joe.

The old "You're going home in a Staffordshire ambulance" chant would have had some on here feinting at the immorality of it all.

Not sticking up for any chanters, but it's nothing at all, a heat of the moment insensitivity at wht was perceived as an injustice to our player.

We have far bigger issues to be concerned about than insensitivity. THis Platinum lark for a start.

These morons really do need outing and banning also to include the moron that threw stuff at Given in the week.

[neilscfc]

I heard it in the boothen bang out of order!

[nostrilsmoffat]

As I was walking away from the ground to the mini bus, I was alongside a long row of (home) coaches.
There was some needle whereby away fans were shouting "scum" at somebody on a coach which resulted in them pretty much chased off by fellow Stokies who were also on foot.
As I walked on I saw what it must have been that provoked this, some bint, sitting on the coach by the window, knocked on the window at me, I looked up and she was holding an imaginary stick in both of her hands and then making a snapping gesture with it.
Apart from not even realising she was doing this at a fellow Stokie, what a stupid cow.

Talk about mountain out of a molehill.

So surely it can be likened to you getting knocked over by a car, and whilst you're lying in the road with broken bones and bleeding out, a passer-by stops to point at you, laughs and calls you a wanker. That is what some Stoke "fans" did yesterday to Aaron Ramsey, it's no different.

I for one find it disgusting, revelling in someone suffering a potentially career-ending injury. The people who did this are scum.

[bunnyscfc]

don't agree with all this banning talk, apart from whoever chucked that lighter.

These are insensitive chants. Not racist, homophobic etc. Trying to be devils advocate here but what about all those homophobic posts about Sol Campbell last night on here. That's far, far worse, but I don't see the outcry over those, which are personally much, much worse.

It might be out of order Neil, you are right mate, but so were the Adebayor chants - yet no outcry there too.

Double standards.

Did anyone or was it just me see the object thrown at Ryan

[bunnyscfc]

completely different context, but I see where yer coming from. Listen, I'm on noones side on this, but if folk are getting all sensitive over football chants (I do think a thicker skin is needed.

Feel sorry for the lad, but my main worries during and after the game were losing and a player getting red carded. That may make me sound a tw@, but I'm not, just someone who goes to watch my team.

Of course, every single decent Stoke fan wished Ramsay well, but bad injuries happen in football.

[potters1972]

surprised no one sang 'theres only one ankle ramsay, one ankle ramsey'

[rotic]

its an unfortunate incident which happens in the game,he will recover and i dont see why people are getting so wound up by a couple of datf chants,i didnt personally sing it but daft songs happen at football,would ramsey give a fuck or anything happened to any of us?

[nottspotter]

the chant was fairly audible in the boothen coming from some of the tossers at the back of block 19. These are the people who try desperately to start songs off... and never succeed.. so u have to pity them that the only song that caught on was the 'one leg' song. Incidentally... these are the people who's parents are also brother and sister.

it was out of order but at the time it actually wasn't clear what the injury was.. even though he was very clearly in agony.

[chopandmash]

this whole thread is a complete over reaction,the chant was in bad taste but so are most chants at games,i didnt join in but i have to admit it did make me smile,as most kind s of dark humour do.As for clapping the injured player of i just dont get it ,if i broke my leg at work i dont think any fucker would be aplauding me into the ambulance,its a mans game and shit happens,we should be glad that it wasnt our own player on the stretcher,get some perspective for fuck sake.

[PickSCFC]

i joined in with some of the chants but i was aiming it at the arsenal fans as i sit in the south stand and they were running us down and throwing things

[McLovin]

Bring back corpral punishment. Let's ban everyone who says the word "dick" during Delilah.

[ricsleftfoot]

I'm certainly no hooligan and by and large the southstanders are a good bunch. Unfortunately there a number of brain donnors as yesterday proved and that's why I'll be moving. I meant no offence to the fans in the John Smiths it's just a little too sterile in there for me that's all. Regarding your sig I don't think you have added it recently but it's a little insensitive don't you think?

[bunnyscfc]

ric,

good idea to spell the word 'donor' right if you're gonna call someone that name.

Yours with a smiley,

[beale08]

i certainly am no chav, i sit in the southstand and i did join in, as i would almost guarentee the arsenal fans to have sang it, if it happened to us, if you were in the southstand and saw some of the abuse we fucking got, you would have joined in to, people who are calling it shocking but they WOULD have done it to us.

no they are not scum

they were respondinding to the abuse, threats and missiles of the arsenal scum. the same arsenal scum that were trying to get at ryan as he went off

and that is totally different to now hoping for all the best to aaron ramsey

[beale08]

and i do wish all the best to Ramsey, but the song was sung because of constant missiles and abuse

[stoke624]

some stoke fans really do piss me off, and they are the over the over the top flask brigade who come on here crying over funny chants,swearing at games,pennies being thrown etc. These are minor things that happen at every football ground in the country every week, ffs you are grown up men/women! i bet you find it funny when comedians poke fun at other peoples misfortunes. i bet all the people who chanted that also clapped the guy off, i clapped him off, but also found the stoke chants, jokes pretty funny.

[bunnyscfc]

I love the irony of Arsenal fans who booed Bolton's Mark Davies off after Gallas almsot ended his careere with a proper crap tackle.

This is a non-argument in my eyes.

It didn't happen though, bunny.

Their leader, obviously, didn't see it. If he did, no doubt it was just one of those things that happen on a football pitch.

The Arsenal fans just follow thy leader.

[Brick-Top]

So much for the Bear Pit, may aswell be the Ballet Arena now.

You lot need to grow a pair, sod him, he doesn't play for Stoke.

[trend.......]

fuck me, calm down a bit, it was a only a bit of banter.

[jann63]

i wish we could get rid of these fukin morons, absolutely disgraceful i hope ramsey didnt hear them

[lew86]

Fucking hell lads talk about over reaction. He's broke his leg, he hasn't died.

Its a bit of banter for fuck sake.

There's banter and there's banter if you know what i mean.

When the banter is moronic as that was towards Ramsay we should be ashamed. You didnt need half a brain cell from where i was sitting to see that something incredibly bad had happened.

Seeing Whelan lying down comforting the player should have told those dimwits involved all they needed to know.

[lew86]

We sit in the south and I thought nothing of it, had a moan as I thought it was just another diving episode, then felt a bit stupid when the medical staff came out.

It was aimed at the knuckle draggers in the away end. I've heard plenty worse songs about a player so I don't understand the big witch hunt.

[gaznandi]

While i dont agree with the songs or wanker signs as he was being put in the ambulance, you have to admit it happens at every ground and would have been the dsame had it been Ryan being carried past the Arsenal fans, imho anyway...

Just curious if all the offended on here ever received Jade Goody, Gary Glitter or Madeleine Mcann jokes and passed em on to their mates....

Perspective and all that....
