This a reply after a few beers (I usually just read) there are 2 choices here 1 dont join in 2 make a song yourself But FFS stop fkn moaning BTW I love the fact the younguns are up for keeping the unsavourie bits intact. There we go....discuss🤣 I think a bit of banter (ok abuse) between rival fans is part of football. But targeting individual groups (such as women/girls in the Callum Camps song) is unacceptable. This sort of thing belongs in the past. Yes you don't have to join in and yes you could invent your own song, but you can't avoid listening. And we have heard evidence that women have felt uncomfortable at County. That can't be right and lyrics like that won't help. Illogical too. If Callum Camps wanted to f*ck your wife and she was up for it, you're not really required in the decision-making process. |

Not sure these people see it that way though. |

Not sure you want women to be making decisions like that on their own.
That way madness lies.
They'll be wanting to drive cars next, and then who knows what?

Being relatively (ahem) new to County (two years) I’ve never heard Arthur Brownlow sung at a game or in a pub. I’d much rather hatters 83 organised a mass sing song of this on castle St rather than the pyro and drums before Salford. Horses for courses I suppose.
Looks great a videos. Part of what makes us, us.
Can someone tell me what the origins are?

Edit: on trains or coaches home also acceptable |

Edit: on trains or coaches home also acceptable Last time I heard it was at Stevenage away earlier in the season. Prompted by an announcement at half-time that a "certain Arthur Brownlow" was celebrating his birthday at the game - didn't catch his age that time as it was drowned out by the cheer from the County fans and the start of the song! |

Before my time, but the story I remember is there used to be a fan who would go up and down the Pop Side behind the nearside linesman giving him abuse for the entire game, and he was nicknamed Arthur Brownlow after a TV character at the time. The song itself is a borrowing of an old mucky song rugby teams used to sing www.dirtyballs.co.uk/post/76113009520/alouette |

His real name was Arthur Cooper, as mad as a bag of cats and in many respects much as described in the song. |

Edit: on trains or coaches home also acceptable I'd go as far as saying should only be in the pub pre/post match (arguably on just away days) and/or on trains/coaches. Tends to just trail away mid song when the game is on before it rouses a bit near the end. It's a song that requires a lot of people's attention and tends to be best paired with a pint in hand. Needs to be a hearty crowd rather than just a ragtag bunch of people. On the Concourse at Barnet away in the FA Cup a few years ago was done properly imo |
