How’a about this then?
The first teamclub in the history of the FA Cup ever to have referred to themselves es FA Cup Champions rather than Winners or Holders are, unsurprisngly, the thick as shit fans of Wigan Athletic.
Which is no surprise really, as they fail to sing the correct words to their own signature tune (… “you never notice”?) and couldn’t even work out that when adopting the chant from the Zulte Waragem fans of “Zul…. te…” that they should have taken the opportunity to use the syllables “Wig…. an…” and used the more neanderthal “Oooh… ah” instead.
Debate it all you want. FA Cup Champions is just wrong.
Lock the thread.

None of which alters that fact that I’m right. Again.
If said correctly, ‘Champions’ has three syllables/beats, and doesn’t fit into the song. ( FA Cup Champ-i-ons)However, ES2’s finest sing the song like a shoal of guppies feeding, and therefore don’t need to break from their open mouth – close mouth rhythm if they turn it into a two-beat word – ‘FA Cup Champ-yuns’
‘FA Cup Winners’ has the right number of syllables and is much more understated.

P. Edant(PS. Just spotted my typo on the Cummunity Sheild. Don’t know what you get for winning, but you get a biscuit for losing)
Maybe they don’t pronounce it correctly but in doing so it fits the song better than winners – its about more than the number of syllables but the sound & speed of saying the word & the speed of that section of the chant.
To fit “winners” in to the chant correctly it ends up having to be pronounced as wiiiiners (or somet like that). Just “winners” leaves you missing the beat man!!Top marks on the biscuit gag though!! :lol: :lol:
F A Champions sounds so bloody old fashioned, ive always believed it to be cup winners. Champions sounds pre white horse final and news reel. “Hurrah, Wigan Athletic are the new Football Association Challenge Cup Champions and its hats off to the men from Lancashire”. Cup winners for me :)
Just look at the banner behind them;
The FA Cup 2013 WINNERS![/quote]
can you only see half a picture through them rose tinted of yours

there you go being personal again fat lad. your missus must have skin as thick as your belly in that pic to keep up with you. you know what they say about lads who are always talking about it they are never doing it. just by saying your right all the time must be a right bore to everyone around you and your unfuny combacks when you are obviously wrong must irratate the crap out of you. try to be humble sometimes people might start to like you

Fat? Aye alright, pal. I have enough friends mate, without worrying whether people I couldn’t give a flyer about like me or not.
It’s winner, not champions – get over it, you’re wrong. All the clever lads that have posted on this thread have said winners and all the daft lads have said champions. Take a hint.

Listen lad, I ignored all the abysmal spelling in your earlier post but please don’t start lecturing me on the correct use of England.
Yes, you’re right, the second one wasn’t required. Wrong, even. But sometimes, in modern language, they can be used for emphasis. Not right, as I say, but deemed acceptable. A bit like saying FA Cup champions instead of FA Cup winners.
Do yourself a favour. Stay away from pulling up people on their England and stick to showing your wife all your witty derogatory posts. She must be just made up that she married Wigan’s answer to Oscar Wilde. Or Stephen Fry.

Bored with you lad, go away. We’ve all been playing quite nicely on here recently. If you want to try to drag it down you can, but I’m bored with you now.
It’s not my fault you took my factually correct criticism about Wigan fans singing the wrong words to the Zulte, YAMS and, arguably, the FA Cup Champions songs personally and to heart, but you did, and then started to get insulting.
Fat, indeed! I’ve been called some things in my time, but fat???? I suggest you go to Specsavers, lad.
Good night
