1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Annie would have sharpened the attack, with her knitting needles
And Dora would have injected pace, with her zimmer
If we include Gramps too, we’d add hope – if only a glimmer
And then the remaining eight –
should be good enough
Against that tiny Alpine state

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 The fans went for the jugular
The players didn’t
The fans went mad
The players didn’t
The fans were not impressed
And let them know it
They turned on the team
Whether punter or poet
Let their feelings be known
And weren’t afraid to show it

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The manager and players were not impressed –
The manager and players were not impressive
There was a victory on paper
But in reality, everyone’s turned depressive

Notes

Andorra 0 England 3

How can you boo off a team that has won three nil?

Watch this over again – and you’ll see why!
