You've only got one song
Bit of a cheeky thread title but it is still bringing a smile to my face.

Great time in the Shed today, lots of banter and singing between the fans but never any malice. I suspect that this will become the must see Chiefs away fixture over the coming years.

Thanks Gloucester worth every penny of the £21 ticket price.

Re: You've only got one song
And £5 for my daughter- best £5 I've spent in a while!

I thought the drums were good- added to the atmosphere, but not overpowering. I hope the glaws lot feel the same

Re: You've only got one song
They're a great set of supporters, true rugby folk and dare I say it the best (after Chiefs) in the land for following their team. Let's hope they bring a sparkle to Sandy park for years to come.

In all fairness I did try to teach them the words to the Tomahawk chant however as father would say:

"you can't educate pork you can only cure it".

I have learnt their two songs eeeeh orrrrr and Glawwwwwsterrrr.

Re: You've only got one song
and at least we have more than two syllables unlike Gloucester, (but remember poor old Sale who only have one, so they need to invent another syllable: Saaaay Ullllll).

I think we have a good repertois (I'm practicing French words ahead of Paris!) of songs/chants in comparison to some others. I'm glad that Gloucester were able to experience the Tribe in full song, drums included this year.

"After extensive research, can I present the following Hash Tag for Paris: #Tomahawhhacherentournee ?"

Donnez-moi un C
Donnez-moi un H
Donnez Moi un I etc.

Re: You've only got one song
I'm pretty sure the Chiefsexile wasn't talking about us only having one song, it was when Glos were doing their Glawsterrrrr chant that we started singing "one song, you've only got one song" the Glos fans then started singing a different Glos song to which the tribe replied "Two songs, you've only got two songs" which caused a lot of amusement in the shed (Sm152)

Re: You've only got one song
The "rivalry" between the two sets of fans was brilliant, although I thought that when they took up our chant and inserted the word "Glawster" they did themselves more harm than good, the Chop is the Chop and i'm sure our guys appreciated it!

The Shed, apart from an exclusive group near half way was very subdued at the end though.

I was halfway in The Shed in front of the majority of your fans and drums. Brilliant support and I enjoyed the songs, Particularly enjoyed our rendition of eeyore to your tune, made me laugh. Great afternoon, looking forward to both games next season. Well done to Exeter and all your fans.

The diferent song was "Gloucester Boys" which we normally sing at the end after a victory. Fortunately you gave us the oportunity to sing it earlygrinning smiley

Have to say I had misgivings about allowing the drums in, but they did add to the proceedings. You have a great bunch of supporters and great banter was had.

Since we're not going to now, hope you can push on to the play offs. Best of luck.
