papereyes Anyone with any sense wouldn't sing it.

Oh, unless its 'banter' in which case, crack on!

'You're a paedophile LOL! No offence!'

To be fair, my friend's 21 year old girlfriend recently got questioned about her age when trying a buy a DVD rated "12". Banter has been going around for a while since.

In the context of a football crowd with a stranger who has been cleared of serious allegations though, I have to agree and say it's disgraceful. I didn't hear it, but it's embarrassing that Reading fans are doing this. I though we were better than that.

It was being chanted just behind me and was just plain wrong. As has already been said, a lot of things are fair game in football chants, but this is out of order. Like him or not, he was totally innocent, and the guy has a family who must have been torn apart by the accusations against him, only to have to listen to a bunch of Mongs who should be singing for their own team chant this crap.

Banter is a 2 way process. The recipient of the gibe accepts and is amused by it (and doesn't just pretend to because otherwise they wouldn't look cool). In an ideal banter the gibes go both ways and are fun for all including the target. This chant about Dave Jones wasn't banter it was offensive. Any right thinking intelligent person could see that.

Hopefully the likely offender won't have to watch the game from Ninian Park station* again...

SCIAG Last night was the first time in ages we've really outsung an away support, though they came into it towards the end of the match..

Not from the North Stand - Cardiff all game. But that's the MadStad acoustics for you

If the bloke next to you is shouting, he's going to be loud. It doesn't mean that another bloke 80yards away is going to hear him though.

roadrunner The disgrace was that our fans never rise to a big occasion. Crap support tonight. Only two chants made it to the centre of the south stand and they were quickly drowned out by up for it away support. How can you not find your voice against scummy supporters like that?


Absolute Bollocks.


Affraid not. Hardly heard a peep but for said two occaisons when I looked over and thought wow that's us, and then as expected Cardiff rised to us and the East Stand were drowned out. Poor support from Y24, 25 and 26. Also some of the songs Cardiff came out with were easy but loud and catchy, even if some here think their shite, but at least they were loud and persistant. When are we ever? You might be a while.

Our fans are f**king shite. There's more passion in a morgue than there is at the Madstad.

However, to be fair tonight was good by Reading standards and I don't really remember them outsinging us.

We just have to face the fact that the new breed of chanters just don't really know how to start chants.

SLOOOOOOOW FFS.


Well it doesn't carry to the middle of the South Stand then. Sure Cardiff were noisy and persistant, but there were gaps and still we couldn't hear more than what can only be described as a mass group of people talking all at the same time. If we in the middle of the South couldn't hear the East Stand then neither could the majority of Cardiff.

M Brook And what's with the numpties who were singing the BRITISH national anthem? Don't they realise it belongs equally to our Welsh cousins as it does to us English? Pathetic. And FFS its - 'God Save THE Queen' not 'God Save OUR Queen'.


Our Welsh cousins that booed it LOL. Hence why they sang it.. They don't like being British as much as the Jocks or N.Irish, or me for that matter. English yes, British fcuk no.

leicsRoyal I too was stood toward the back of the South Stand and was pleasantly surprised that we managed to get a bit of an atmosphere in there.

Trouble was from being sat in the South Stand it distorted the sound of our own fans in the East stand as every time we started a chant the Cardiff fans joined in with their own words to it.

Thought overall the atmosphere was pretty good from both sets of fans.


Yep. This is exactly how RFC fans should treat every game tho and we don't do it. The away fans start a chant and we should immediately take it on and sing even louder. The teams play against each other and so should the fans.

Well this has been blown entirely out of proportion.

Yes it wasn't the best song to sing and not in the greatest taste. But with some of the reactions on here, it sounds like people believe we sang it constantly for 90mins. From memory, it got sung a couple of times, and not by everyone in y25/26. I think some people have a stereotypical view that everyone who sits up there is a bit of a twat. There are a few, but not everyone is like that. I sit up there because i enjoying singing at matches, and therefore wanted to be where the atmosphere is. But I feel that some people just wait for us to do something a bit dodgy then come on here and complain about it, every club has fans like this, and at Reading we probably have less of these fans compared to other clubs. I think some need to get a bit of perspective that other clubs do a lot worse than we do

Sat in the North and I heard Cardiff once or twice all game and that was it.

Didn't hear the Dave Jones song but seriously, only Reading fans could get so precious about something like that. "Oh must we be so nasty to the poor man" followed by a discussion around the establishment of guilt in the British legal system.

You'll all sit there screaming abuse at the referee all game or the away fans, sing songs about being gay to Watford supporters etc etc but get upset that someone calls DJ a paedo.

Get over it.
