Anyone know the words to the Tom Lapslie chant?

It was actually early in the 2015-16 season - memory failing me!

I think that chant was started by the Plymouth Argyle Lords Taverners supporters group who came to support the club at Plainmoor when we thought it was about to fold (early in the 2016-17 season I think). I can't remember who we were playing but I was sitting in Bristows Bench listening to the chants opposite and most of the noise was coming from the Argyle supporters. I have never forgotten that act of generosity at a very dark time for the club.

HNY fellow yellows! The atmosphere has been brilliant lately! Does anyone know if the 3 little birds chant was just a flash in the pan? Always thought that one was a good chant

Rod-ney jack-jack-jack ( what a player)

YEAH that's it lol

the bit at the beginning,,,

Tomorrow is historic,
How about, to make the team feel extra special, because they are the history makers (since 1927 at least)

Yellow army in unison, until they appear,

BRING ON THE CHAMPIONS!.

Because you are part of that history too!

I like that a lot.

The one that always made me chuckle at home matches was 'You Fat Bastard', repeated several times and VERY loudly. Usually directed at Steve Evans who has managed several clubs in his career (I think he was with Crawley at ther time). Not the most imaginative of chants I grant you but Evans always took it in good heart and it actually seemed to fire him up. The other was 'Can you hear Woking sing, I can't hear a f***** thing' - we may possibly be hearing that one again next season.

I never understood the line in the 'one man and his dog' chant which went:

One man and his dog
Went to mow a City.

I'm 30 and I remember the 'know we are singing' from early 2000s. I always thought it was 'give us a goal while we are singing'.

Anyone remember the goodbye horse chant. I never really understood what that was about. 'As I was saying goodbye to my horse I was saying goodbye to my horse'.

I used to like the Bayo Akinfenwa chant to the tune of 'do the conga'

to the tune of David Bowie Starman:

Briah.....Neely
Briah.....Neely
a-la-la-la-la-la

What about this?

Woke up this morning feeling fine,
Got TUFC on my mind,
We're going straight back up like we knew we would,
Oh yeah,
Something tells me I'm into something good...
1, 2, 3, 4,
