The only song were gonna sing is the one written by Egan - contrary to some claims , it does NOT contain the word "pink" - the line is
"He stuck that paper on the wall".
This must mean a newspaper cutting in which somrone had labelled the team as "journeymen".
Egan is highlighting how wrong that label is.
I agree, I think it was a newspaper article describing Uniteds squad, as a collection of ‘journeymen’ that Wilder stuck on the dressing room wall. Seems to have done the job, cos..............
“Now were going on a journey..........to the feckin’ Prem”.
