I think it was against Swansea and they were last, when Arsenal fans sang “going down, going down, going down.” and the swansea fans replied “so are we, so are we, so are we.” thougt that was good.

The funniest song I heard was when we played Newcastle shortly after the near collapse of northern rock. The Arsenal fans started singing “you should have banked with Woolwich, banked with the Woolwich, you should have banked with the Woolwich!!”

as for the tottenham in disguise song I really enjoyed singing that song to the scum!!!!

When Alan Sugar sacked Venables back in 1991, Arsenal fans sang…

*A spoonful of Sugar helps the Venables go down*

10/10 for wit!

I loved the irony in the chant “Andy Lingighan’s school of excellence” after his winning goal in the ‘93 cup final!

I also thought the “Are you Tottnumb in disguise” chant was hilarious!

One that made me laugh (I know it’s sad but I found it funny, sadly I wasn’t there but it was a televised game) was in a game against Everton a few years ago. Everton didn’t a get a free kick and their fans went mad to which all of Highbury went into the “A A A, calm down, calm down” from Harry Enfield in a perfect scouse accent.

The famouse scouse sense of humour seemed to be missing on that occasion.

Blimey it makes the old memory cells work again. How about

Here’s here, here’s there, he’s every fucking where
Bobby Gould, Bobby Gould

and although it is now just something we hear all the time, the first ever ironic chant of “Boring Boring Arsenal” when we were 5-0 up, that was a good memory.

Going back to the time before Alan Ball signed for us – I guess he was at Everton – there was a chant which doesn’t actually seem that wonderful now, but at the time really made me laugh… Arsenal fans sang…

“Alan, Alan, Alan Ball Alan Ball Alan Ball
Alan, Alan, Alan Ball, Alan, Alan Ball
(pause)
wank wank wank wank wank wank wank
wank wank wank wank wank wank
wank wank wank wank wank wank wank
wank wank wank wank wank

Yes, well…. one last one. I think it was Rangers who had a player called Shi’ite leading to their own fans chanting

You’re Shi’ite and you know you are.

And my claim to fame…

On the day it was announced we signed Alex Song I wrote on the Red Action news group..,,

“We’ve only got one Song”

Original or what.

My favorite from the not too distant past:

He’s blond;
He’s Fit;
His name’s a porno flick;
Emmanuel;
Emmann__uuelll…..

So fitting for our pony- tailed enforcer/playmaker Emmanuel Petit.

Shame it is not so appropriate for Eboue.

Myles palmer dude is a funny guy in that everything he said is so nonsense it’s unbelievable….how he said when we signed Henry that he will never make it as a striker!!!! I think he went into mad mode after that statement…

If you go to the menu categories on this site and click on the link “untrue humour and wild whimsy” you can find the real funniest articles on Arsenal on the web. And by real funny I mean that it was meant to be funny and actually was funny.

The funniest not meant to be funny article for the last weeks was the “Eduardo off to Liverpool” when on that same moment Eduardo signed a new contract with the Arsenal.

For the songs…sadly I never witnessed a game when there was a new song or so. But if I have to choose it would be the 2 points-song. I would have enjoyed singing that one.

Personal favourite will always be the magical and surreal:

My old man’s got a second hand Audi……Gilles Grimandi

Beautiful.

Funniest Arsenal article I’ve read was on Pyles Murmur’s ANR, titled: “Is Craig Eastmond already better than Eboue, Song or Denilson?”

Now, I know many don’t think Pyles is funny, but I’ve found that if you go to his site strictly looking for comic relief, he’s bound to provide it with his near-sighted (and I’m probably being unfair to near-sighted people everywhere) opinions about Arsenal.

I laughed my head off reading him declare that Eastmond (who did in fact have a great game against Liverpool Insolvents) was already better than Song, Eboue, and Diaby, but forgetting to mention Denilson (oh dear!) on the basis of one performance, and then go on to say the lad wouldn’t get the same chances Wenger gives his French and African players.

Viewed from the right perspective, Pyles is a riot!

“Lasagna Wo oh oh”

My current fave is the delectable “You’ve only come to see Eboue”

Tony Adams magic,
Hes got a magic knob,
And when he saw Caprice,
He shoved it in her gob,
Shoved it up her pussy,
Shoved it up her bum,
And when he went to shite hart lane,
He fucked Glen Hoddle’s mum!
