Absolutely. No shortage of the marching powder around the pub yesterday. They were all pretty open about how much they’d got on them as well |  | |  |

The Stone Island crew who gave MM such vile abuse at Brentford? |  | |  |

I'm not sure what your question is here. |  |

It was outside the George in London Bridge that I first heard it. There were a couple of coppers around but they seemed to have their hands full. Then when a couple of guys started it on the train I did step and say that it wasn’t acceptable. |  | |  |

Yes the majority of people were just having a decent time and it was by far a minority of fans outside the George and on the train. It just sickens me that these numbskulls think it’s acceptable. The ones outside the George were definitely of an older generation of fan but the guys on the train were younger. Pretty ugly stuff |  | |  |

That's not the kind of behaviour people are talking about though, which I'm sure you're aware of already. I've been to a decent number of away days and seen and heard some pretty awful behaviour from some of our 'fans' and sadly it's always tended to be worse at London away games. |  |

I don’t know if I’ve lived a sheltered life or i’ve just been lucky but in the 60 odd years I’ve been following the Town I’ve never heard that song… |  | |  |

I swear to God I’ve never heard it either - never. We were on the 10.40, walked to a few pubs around Bishopsgate - Leadenhall Market - and then on to Wheatsheaf. Went back in there after the game and also The Market Porter. Pretty good day apart from the football. [Post edited 8 Dec 2021 18:14]

I’m glad you haven’t heard it before. It does mean that the minority is extremely small. However, I definitely did hear it, twice in two separate places last night. Granted, not sung by many but it was clear as day. And my mates who were with me heard it too. Just because you may not have heard it before, even though it must have been sung at some point because you’ve heard OF it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t get sung even by a tiny number of fans. I personally haven’t heard any racist chants/comments at Town games before, but I do know for a fact that they have happened. |  | |  |
