Viking clap

Thu Jul 07, 2016 9:10 pm

No set of fans will do it as good as the icelandics. Especially not us in an half empty Cardiff city stadium. Please don't think about it!

Viking clap! Sounds like something you might catch off a Danish prostitute.

It turned into a sheep clap in Lyon which was quite funny to be honest :laughing6:

I think it's brilliant. Visually, it's breathtaking to see. Iceland stole it off Motherwell in the first place anyway, so they can't complain about ourselves and France doing it as well.

Would you think an half empty Canton Stand would look impressive then? I think it'd look crap.

I can't even begin to think what it would like. An absolute shambles from start to finish no doubt.

Half our fans can't even clap let alone count between them.

It'd start as the Viking clap then people will get bored and start doing the Ayatollah instead.

Bring back the old songs or create our own rather than copying the Icelandic chant which is good but is special to them. It won't work in an half empty CCS with a bunch of mongos doing it.

Yet another thing that will just get replicated up and down the country which you will see in every match on MOTD.

Jesus no, I hate the Ayatollah as it is, it's served its time.

An upgraded Ayatollah would just finish me off.

Some of these comments are hilarious :laughing5:
We do need to get singing back into down the city, I think it will happen now season ticket prices have been reduced we certainly have more bums on chairs which is a start. :thumbup:

Looked great when the Icelandic fans did it, but I hope No teams fans, especialy my lot do it this season.

If Aaron Gunnarson were to lead this then I think it would be fitting.
Whether we chant Sheep to each clap or Blue or whatever or not is for the fans to decide but I think The Canton Stand would get fully behind it personally.

I watched it (on TV) at the CCS and all I kept thinking was "WTF?" and "They're doing it too fast anyway!" :oops:

Hope they weren't going home for nookie! LOL :laughing6:
