Is there a worse set of fans out there than Millwall. genuinely?
No one who watched that tackle could have any doubts its a red card (except the ref who didn't even give a foul at first and needed VAR to send him for a second look).

Gentlemen I present to you the 2017 family club of the year.

No worse than those up the road.

A Reading (I think) player swallowed his tongue on the pitch at the Vetch years ago, late 80s maybe. Most of us on the North Bank cheerily chanting “hope he’s dead” while he was being treated. And he very nearly was.

Those up the road have plenty of sticks that we can beat them with (and deservedly so). However in the interests of fairness none of them are chants about wishing players die

You get the odd knob who dreams up a stunt regarding Terry Coles (like the radio phone in thing) but the fans as a whole in the stadium singing that they wished x player dies who is clearly seriously hurt and needing 8-9 minutes of treatment?

Not so much

Back in the day it was "your going home like Sandy Richardson" .
Pack mentality

No, as one they make hissing noises about a player who did die.
Don't get me started on the Terry Cole chants, they been at it for 20 years.

We’d never sing “hope he’s dead” to injured players. Nope, no chance, never.

Was before my time as a fan, mid 90s when I first started my paper boy run (and would take a break to read the back of the evening post each day) was when I first became interested in the Swans. It was also hardly ever a happy read

Still regularly happens. Heard it on the box from the Lib not long ago. We’re no holier than thou angels. ‘Sala’s in a box’ was echoing around the ground when I last went to a derby, and our away fans scum make it not worthwhile to go in my opinion. Chucking stones at others is a bit rich, although, they also have their scum element of course. All football clubs are much the same.

Absolutely. We’ve got our own fair share of dicks.

 

[Ringwood]

We've sung that quite a few times

That chant was common place at latter days of the vetch.

There’s so much revisionism at times.

Yep we've sung.... Hope he's dead down the vetch and the liberty

The wall just won’t move on but in reality they’re only a few years behind in their development.
