It's a chant familiar to a generation of rugby fans, synonymous with Max Boyce, and which even had an airing at the Oscars thanks to an emotionally patriotic Catherine Zeta-Jones.

But the origins of these famous words - which bizarrely translate as "Pasty! Pasty! Pasty!" - were yesterday revealed to be from across the Bristol Channel.

And this was confirmed by none other than Max Boyce himself.

The troubadour of Welsh rugby, who popularised the chant during the golden years of Welsh rugby in the 1970s, explained, "It almost certainly came from Cornwall, hence the Cornish name 'oggy' for a Cornish pasty.

"It's attributed to me everywhere, quite wrongly. I made it much more known because I used it at the start of concerts and because I was on national TV it was picked up and everyone used it.

"But it was brought here as a chant by touring armed services sides like Devonport when it was very common for them to tour and play against my club Glynneath in the late 1960s."

The origins of "Oggy! Oggy! Oggy!" have surfaced as part of an ongoing row over the roots of the familiar meat-and-veg-filled pastry dish.

Proud Cornishmen and women are aghast over claims that the humble pasty, called an "oggy" in Cornwall, actually comes from Devon. A recently unearthed recipe from Devon appears to support the county's claim as it dates back to 1510 - 236 years before the first recorded Cornish recipe for pasties.

As for the chant, the apocryphal story has it that tin-miners' wives shouted "Oggy! Oggy! Oggy!" down mine shafts either to alert them that their pasties were ready, or to warn them that their pasties were about to be dropped down to them.

Boyce, though, has a different take. "I used to say that people selling pasties in the narrow streets of Cornish towns would shout, 'Oggy! Oggy! Oggy!' and people who wanted to buy them would shout down 'Oi! Oi! Oi!' from their windows. But that's just part of folk legend, really."

However, the singer found the chant's origins caused even more bafflement, and even consternation, among Australians during a recent tour Down Under.

Just as Welsh rugby supporters believe the chant is their own, so Australians laboured under the misconception that the definitive version, popularised during the Sydney Olympics and 2003 Rugby World Cup, was "Aussie! Aussie! Aussie!".

"When I told them that I've got 'Oggy! Oggy! Oggy!' on records dating back to 1971 they were mortified. Radio phone-ins were jammed with irate callers."

The chant's Cornish origins may come as some surprise to Welsh starlet Catherine Zeta-Jones. Revelling in her Swansea upbringing, she famously brought the phrase to a whole new audience when she quoted it in her acceptance speech after winning the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 2003.

But despite all the revelations, there may still be a legitimate Welsh claim to the phrase.

The Oxford English Dictionary acknowledges the Cornish roots of the word oggy, describing it as probably an alteration of the 18th Century Cornish "hoggan" pastry. The entry then goes on to explain the word possibly shares a root with the earlier Welsh word Chwiogen, dating back to at least 1562, and meaning muffin or simnel-cake.

Whatever its origin, as Boyce says, "It's part of rugby folklore and long may it remain so."
