I was in at the Watford game and didn’t hear anything...What about you guys?
Some of the papers are using this quote:
“They were singing all the usual songs, the song, to the tune of Smoke gets in your eyes, about Martin Chivers being a Jew and being circumcised, along with the usual yiddo chants.”
Personally I think it’s a load of bollocks and didn’t happen.
I said the same yesterday... never heard that song before.
And as for had to be removed for his own safety, unless he was kicking off, didn’t happen.
I did a Q+A with Martin Chivers and sat next to him at a function. Lovely guy, but bitter about today's money as he missed out on the millions and would have been on huge wages in the modern game. Last I heard he worked in asbestos removal management.

I met him in the Wembley corporate bit a couple of years ago, seemed like a nice blokeIt did happen. Group of five old boys, completely wrecked ,were singing it (and getting the words wrong) in the back row, top corner.
I think someone grassed to the stewards, but they didn't throw them out, just warned them.
Journo must have heard through social media as I doubt any of them were up there that remote from the game.
I thought they must have been old boys to be singing about Martin Chivers and songs to the music of 30s show tunes!
and if I'm referring to them as old, you can imagine how old they were! ![[old]](../images/smilies/old.gif)
Seriously, out of all the songs I have heard sung by us over the years, it rates about 3/10 on the offensive scale and it was sung by 0.2% of the away end!
The fella is being a tad precious and its been blown out of all proportion.
What’s the song?
You weren’t too far in front to hear it?
