CORRIE legend David Neilson, between known for playing Roy Cropper, was spotted at St Mary’s Stadium singing along to
an X-rated chant.
The Soap actor, 75, was in the away end cheering on Leicester City in their match against Southampton.
The match appeared to be heading the hosts’ way, when the Saints raced into a 2-0 lead.
However, a spirited fightback by the Foxes in the second half saw them overcome the two goal deficit to win 3-2.
That saw Leicester’s supporters break into a rude song.
A beaming Neilson was spotted on camera joining in on the song and clapping.
A video of the moment was shared on X account Football Away Days.
It was captioned: “Roy Cropper enjoying himself in the Leicester away end at Southampton today.”
Neilson first appeared in the ITV soap opera in 1995 as the cafe owner, Cropper.
He has featured in a number of high-profile storylines, with perhaps his most famous being when his character married the first transgender character in a British Soap Opera, Hayley Patterson played by Julie Hesmondhalgh.

Outside of his TV work, Neilson is one of Leicester’s most famous supporters.
He regularly runs Alan Birchenall’s charity race around the King Power Stadium.
The event is in memory of former Leicester City star Keith Weller to raise money for prostate cancer awareness.
