shadesrwrf Has to be the boat/plane version. Three lines all with the same rhyme at the end just sounds silly.

Love Floyd's version for a second verse though.



You can't do an action for the boat, at least you can for a train if you want to (that's why i changed it and i think the rhyming works)

Looking forward to seeing everyone doing "the plane" on Saturday as it was starting to catch on at the end of the Newcastle game.


surelly you wont be doing train actions?
bit gay isn't it?

Train actions WTF!

I'm sat here trying out wave motions with my arms and hands for the boat. It's gayer than train actions but if you ar going to be gay then you might as well go all the way.

This is madness, but it's great fun.

not often we get a decent song suggestion here but imho the france/spain boat/plane version is absolutely perfect-2 verses 2change things up a bit but not too complex to confuse things. And boat sounds better than train-3rhymes out of 4 doesnt scan as well i dont think. Great effort, 180 minutes more to give it a wel deserved airing

Platypuss We'll travel to Europe,
We'll all get travel sick,
Eastern European former secret policeman,
Put down your stick


The "100mph mob" will be happy with the third line - you'd have to sing it bl**dy fast to come close to scanning.

The_Cat I prefer the one someone mentioned on here ages ago:

We'll go there by boat
We'll go there by plaaaaane
Reading in Europe
I must be insane


That was moi 8)


LOL, heard this a few times yesterday chaps! Good work! :lol: 8)


Myself and Dariusz changed it to

We're going to France,
We're going to Spaaaiiiiin,
Reading in europe,
I must be insane

We'll get there by boat,
We'll get there by plaaaane,
Reading in europe,
I must be insane

Although at times i think i changed the 'i must be insane' to 'you must be insane'. Works whichever way

I like this chant and can see it catching on, certainly a few around me were singing it last night. Good work Y24!!


Verse 3

We've hired a van
We've hired a truuuuck
But Stevieeee Coppell
He don't give a fcuk
