Over rated player anyway who is still chanted for years later. Lots of similar quality players have long since been forgotten. The chant has more to do with the Liverpool connection.
I'll just leave this here then.Over rated player anyway who is still chanted for years later. Lots of similar quality players have long since been forgotten. The chant has more to do with the Liverpool connection.
Should probably do as he says lest he murders us.Vidic never liked that chant IIRC
Wait, what's clever about it?I have to say Ive sung this many times and in fact Id put in the Top5 best chants I can remember because its actually very clever
Ive never felt it was racist (there are a few others chants over the years which I have not felt comfortable to sing), people in South Korea do have a history of eating dogs which TBF they are trying to move away from
But I guess times change and since Park himself asks I will not sing it anymore
So if I’m right you’re saying Park was as good as Ronaldo
Pretty sure there's malice in us singing chants towards Scousers about murdering people/their own and them, City, Leeds etc singing Munich stuff.I've always assumed that football chants are sang and received with a sort of knowing acceptance between both sets of supporters that there's no real malice there.
Cow's tongues?Catchy as it was, the song was basically saying "your country does something we don't like but it's not as bad as being from Liverpool".
You lot love him and I trust you'll come up with something he can be proud of. What rhymes with "three lungs"?
No but it just shows how highly appreciated he was by teammates. During lockdown last year I re watched a lot of our games from 2006-2009 and Park was one of our stand out players. He was better than I even remembered. He always turned up in big games.So if I’m right you’re saying Park was as good as Ronaldo
I’m sure he barely remembers him. He worked hard but lacked quality. Why post something from Rooney saying something absolutely ridiculous? Rooney has a massive ego in any case.No but it just shows how highly appreciated he was by teammates.

I'm sure Pirlo still has nightmares over him. Park played him off the pitch in both legs.
Pfffft. Are there still people who don't rate his contribution? Guaranteed that number will include neither his boss nor any of his teammates.Over rated player anyway who is still chanted for years later.

In a few lines this song:Wait, what's clever about it?
You could say the same about John O’SheaPfffft. Are there still people who don't rate his contribution? Guaranteed that number will include neither his boss nor any of his teammates.
Some chants that might just be ribbing from those who sing them can also be pretty malicious, 'always the victims' at Liverpool, Adam Johnson pedophile song, the Scouser's 'Howard Webb, hes a red, he sleeps in Fergie bed' etc...Pretty sure there's malice in us singing chants towards Scousers about murdering people/their own and them, City, Leeds etc singing Munich stuff.
You’re going to have to help me out with this, my guy.Over rated player anyway who is still chanted for years later. Lots of similar quality players have long since been forgotten. The chant has more to do with the Liverpool connection.
It’s a Park thread. There’s better players than him we don’t still sing about and the fact we do is more about the reference to Liverpool. It’s not an issue for us to stop singing about him if he wants us to stop.You’re going to have to help me out with this, my guy.
Park wants you to stop singing his chant because it’s offensive.
You think he’s overrated. Ok.
What’s the connection?
Love Park. He used to torment Arsenal.
For a bit of context the ‘tradition’ if you can call it that involves beating the dogs whilst still alive to tenderise the meat. Almost all Koreans are against this for obvious reasons, it’s animal cruelty.But………isn’t it a traditional practice in Korea to eat dog meat?
So how can it be offensive to state a fact?
I’m genuinely confused so by all means please educate me on why this is offensive/wrong to sing
Japan will suffice. Pity we didn't do one for Kagawa huh.China has the dog meat festival though doesn't it? Maybe we should get a player from the Faroe Islands. Sure we could put a decent whale murdering chant together for him.
so Park is known to eat dog meat is he?I never said that. Of course stop singing it as he asked. But people are wrong saying that it is racist or xenophobic, that is totally different to stereotypes, especially if people are known to do the stereotype.
And there goes a bit more of my faith in humanity, could have did without ever knowing about that. Brutal.For a bit of context the ‘tradition’ if you can call it that involves beating the dogs whilst still alive to tenderise the meat.

So it’s more akin to saying all Spanish people terrorise and butcher bulls for sport, or all British people do that to Foxes for a bit if fun on a Sunday afternoon - than it is to say all Spanish eat chorizo or all Brits drink tea or whatever.
Nobody likes to be generalised for a certain behaviour, especially when they’ve never done it themselves and are strongly morally against it.
Is it really that hard for people to see why they’d be offended by that?
I wish our fans were as imaginative as the lads behind Chelsea Chelsea Chelsea chantOur chants are largely pretty shit or unoriginal. Vidic was bothered by 'he comes from Serbia, he's gonna murder ya', Park by this dog meat stuff, Lukaku by the penis song, Wenger got a chant saying he is a pedo, then the 'Viva Ronaldo' and 'Oh Robin van Persie' are just plain boring.
The Martial chant is probbaly the best of the lot in recent years.
It's shit chant anyway, and if it's purpose is to be a tribute to Park and he doesn't like it then there's no point to it. But can you explain why you think it's racist?Why am I not surprised there are people saying 'well ackchyually they do eat dogs so it's not racist'..
Do you eat any animal protein?And there goes a bit more of my faith in humanity, could have did without ever knowing about that. Brutal.
Is there a place online where one can do that?No but it just shows how highly appreciated he was by teammates. During lockdown last year I re watched a lot of our games from 2006-2009 and Park was one of our stand out players. He was better than I even remembered. He always turned up in big games.

Well, it's clearly rooted in a stereotype about people from a certain part of the world. Maybe racism isn't the exact word but it's definitely derogatory.It's shit chant anyway, and if it's purpose is to be a tribute to Park and he doesn't like it then there's no point to it. But can you explain why you think it's racist?
I'd hope you were perceptive enough to know that a black person using the term is reclaiming it and that use in that context is reducing the power of the racism. And that they don't need a white person's permission to do so.If a black person says calling another person the N word is fine, I can't question it because I'm white?
Well that's ok thenOver rated player anyway who is still chanted for years later. Lots of similar quality players have long since been forgotten. The chant has more to do with the Liverpool connection.
