Football chant

[Inbred Avenger]

Hey everyone, greetings from the US (I know, lame MLS). I'm just curious to know which team has the longest drought of championships and when was their last? I'm curious because I have an idea for a chant that you can use at football games (Mind if I say "football" instead of "soccer" with you guys?). If it's already been done, I'm sorry to keep ya. You just shout out the year of that team's last championship and clap five times, just like how you shout out "Let's go <team name>! (CLAP... CLAP... CLAP-CLAP-CLAP!)." But you only chant this at the opposing team.

Here in America, there's a baseball team who hasn't won a championship since 1918! Fans of this other team would chant out "NINE-TEEN-EIGHT-TEEN (CLAP... CLAP... CLAP-CLAP-CLAP)" to the team with the long drought. I'm thinking maybe I should bring this to football. I couldn't do the MLS because nothing's really happened in that league. You have a much better history of football than we Americans. This is just out of my curiosity. What do you think?

It could be abit difficult with some clubs. Below are the twenty Premiership clubs (and two new uns for next season and the year of their last top flight Championship win, with toal wins in brackets or 'never' if they haven't won one). If there is any innaccuracies I'm sure someone will point them out.

We could clap for every year since spurs last won the league, but...there's a fair chance it would start a fire.

Funny how Arsenal fans are on this board spouting off about championship droughts, most likely because they weren't around before 1998 when Arsenal couldn't even get a whif of a division 1 championship unless Chapman was around, which was indeed in black and white.

Champions in 1970/71, 1988/89, 1990/91 , All closer to the Lee Chapman era, than the Herbert Chapman era.

I think a little homework is in order.

Ironic really that you got the date wrong. The premiership was in full swing by 1998.

I think you probably meant 1989, when to win Division 1 for the first time in 18 years we had to beat the then supurb Liverpool, at Anfield, bye at least two goals.

Its up for grabs now!

"Lets go [team name here]"...thats a yank thing.
Probably get a right good slap to the back of the head if you shouted that.
