FOR THE LAST week, Irish fans have been roaming around France singing, “Stand up for the boys in green” to anyone who will listen.
Last night, a group of fans gathered under a bridge in Bordeaux to shelter from the rain and commenced singing as French police officers looked on. Their chant?
Stand up for the French police! Stand up for the French police!

A French policeman tried to get Irish fans to go home by singing his own chant at them
FOR THE LAST week, Irish fans have been roaming around France singing, “Stand up for the boys in green” to anyone who will listen.
Last night, a group of fans gathered under a bridge in Bordeaux to shelter from the rain and commenced singing as French police officers looked on. Their chant?
The French police tried their best to get them to go home…
But then Irish fans just started singing Shane Long Is On Fire ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Until eventually, French police decided, “Hey, if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” and started singing their own song
The moment was captured by BBC Northern Ireland cameraman Phil Hilditch and you can watch it in full below.
