We could always be...

[Guest]

You have probably already heard this or seen it but if you havn't here it is. Made me laugh.

 

(To the tune of, well, Three Lions!)

 

[You're staying down

You're staying down

You're staying,

Canvey's staying down] x2

 

All of your jokes, all of your sneers,

And all your oh-so-nears,

Made me laugh

Through the years

 

Cos Canvey always throw it away

With a useless display

In the Ryman they stay

Now we're singing...

 

In your Essex slum

On your inbred island

Your sister is your mum

You're rotting in the Ryman

 

Laugh about Canvey staying down

Your manager's a clown

We'll be back

At your sh*tty ground

 

And you might get on Match of the day

But the end of the day

At this level you'll stay

And stay forever....

 

In your Essex slum

On your inbred island

Your sister is your mum

You're rotting in the Ryman

 

(Commentary bit)

"It's Lock for Grays, he shoots, he scores, and Canvey are 2-1 down"

"And Rob Haworth equalises for Sutton - Canvey seem determined to hand the title to Gravesend"

"It's there…. Jones scores for Braintree with eight minutes remaining - and Canvey are dead and buried. They've choked it again"

 

Let's all raise a drink

To that fat b*stard King

.....and people think my fixation about the enemy is bad.

 

Can we concentrate on staying up rather than the Ryman also-rans?

 

Otherwise we'll end up back with them.

Agreed Daz. After yesterday and Saturday I think we have a lot to do before we can take the p**s out of anyone. Would have been nice to have sung this at Bedford though. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

It really is time we lost this Canvey fixation they are part of our history, and if we concentrate on gettng this season sorted they can remain that way!

[Guest]

Leave it out. Canvey are scum and need to be told so. If the worst happens and we end up facing them again, do you seriously think that they won't come up with equilly witty songs about our misfortune? No chance.

[David Holden]

<sigh> How sad

[Guest]

Get over it - there's no point throwing a tantrum about it!

 

It's not as if singing anti-Canvey songs it detrimental to the fortunes of the Fleet. I still pay my entrance fee at Stonebridge Road, spend money in the club bar and cheer our lads on. It's just I also like to have a laugh and have a dig at the scum from Essex.

If you'd care to dream up some songs that we can happily sing about this years opposition, it would be more useful, or even better, divert your energies to thinking up ways of helping the Fleet to remain in the Conference and to backing the other ideas put forward on these forums.

 

The other sad thing as well is that you refer to "having a laugh", when I dont think most Fleet fans really find these things funny any more, as they were done to death last season, and we are no longer in the same league as them (Hopefully if we do meet again, it will be in the Conference or higher, and not through relegation for us).
