Sorry Emily !

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I seem to have upset Emily
so let me please apologise
women do understand football
to say they don’t is so unwise.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 I was having a sarcastic dig
at those who hate our game
they just don’t get our passion
which to me is a crying shame.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 But obviously Emily’s not like that
she knows as much as any man
it comes across in her poetry
I can tell she’s a real football fan.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 So keep on watching your team Emily
and writing about them in verse
at least Liverpool will win lots of games
while my Coventry go from bad to worse !

Notes

Just wanted to apologise to Emily and any other women fans who were offended by my poem. As you rightly said it was tongue in cheek and aimed at one or two who have ridiculed my passion over the years !
