Away at Tranmere probably about 1994, someone in the away end had a trumpet or similar brass instrument and was providing accompaniment for the Blades fans singing.
At some stage a Tranmere player went down injured and was laid there receiving treatment for what seemed an eternity before being slowly stretched off.
At which point the trumpeter broke the silence and started playing the Funeral March until they eventually reached the dugout.
Not a chant but very funny at the time!
But maybe you had to be there
