Compare that to "We Are The Rent Boys" a song so cringeworthily bad that 90% of the ground refuses to sing it,

You live in a dream world, if you really believe that..

people can like it or not like it, but to say 90% don't sing it , what planet are you on?


OK Pete I was being harsh.
Its a song so cringeworthily bad that 80 - 85% of the ground refuse to sing it.
Happy with that ???
Cheers Cool

I'm not. It's plainly factually wrong. (for home games)

Last night it rang around LR with huge support several times.

Also at away games this chant is electric. It galvanizes the fans and has done so for about 12 months. Stands literally rock with it.

I'm not a huge fan of qblockpete's use of this message board to promote his own site via somewhat dodgy and un-E-thical mechanisms at various stages.

But this is a good chant. And it's quite odd that you persist in your completely simple minded opposition to it.

Well, Horses for course as they say.
I guess this chant is like Marmite, I dont know anybody who loves it to be fair, but I know plenty who hate it.
Each to their own as they say.
Although I think its fair to say that it wont win greatest QPR terrace chant of alltime ( sarcasm ).

Clearly there are many more 'each's' to their 'owns' that you have the wit to acknowledge...

to be fair, this post will have little effect on whether people sing the song or not.

The 90% quote brought down to 80% not singing the song, had me in stitches Laughing

Don't understand how anyone can knock something positive.

I know ells.
I'm going to give it a rest actually, I feel that I am correct with regards to tis song, but at the end of the day, IT IS ONLY A SONG lol Laughing Laughing
No need for me or anyone else to get their knickers in a twist over this opinion provoking terrace chant.
rblockells, thanks for making me see it right, sometimes I cant help it if I feel like people are having a pop at me, but you have always stood up for me & given me the good advice on this board when it was needed so cheers for that, I am going to take your advice and Chill Out!
To all the rest of you, have a nice evening ( Including the Middle Aged Liberal Clique ) & take it easy.
How was that rblock ???
Cheers Cool

I'm not meaning to knock something positive Pete, to be honest, I wish I could be as genuinely enthusiastic about Rangers as you appear to be, fair play to you.
The song is like Marmite though IMO.

Exactly. And proud of it.

If you are angling for a ban you won't get one. Your idiocy will be allowed to repeat on here ad infinitum. Very Happy

Am i the only one that doesn't understand WTF this is about?

I've never heard anyone sing 'we are the rent boys' - the song we sing is 'we are the rangers boys' which doesn't sound like 'we are the rent boys', it sounds like, errrr, 'we are the rangers boys'.

'rent' has one syllable, 'rangers' has two - in fact apart from the alliterative aspect there's no similarity at all in how they sound.

What a stupid thread ('so why did you reply' etc etc - don't bore me...)

cheers
Cool

Just to stick my oar in....

The only place i've heard it sound like Rangers boys is in P block upper. Any other location it sounds like rent boys or a mix of the both. I've heard people around me question why we sing about being rent boys but then join in anyway.

It is'nt one of my favourites, but what the heck, keep it anyway.
