It’s true that some keepers,
Are quite badly beaten.
But think also, of our outfield,
Is their treatment sweetened?
Perhaps they do sometimes
Play up to their crowd.
Dive down and stumble,
And at this might be proud.

Justice was brought upon him,
As Taylor got the red card.
But Birmingham City’s player
Did not come out scarred.
Eduardo on the other hand,
A fractured fibula, a dislocated ankle.
Fury swept throughout the stadium,
The Arsenal supporters rankled.

All players on a football pitch,
Get injured from time to time.
As for the severity, it always depends,
On the position, + what being the crime.
Keepers will get their skulls knocked,
A striker or midfielder legs and feet.
Players get punished, justice done,
Until when they might next meet.
