The New Boro Manager, Gareth Southgate.

Now Steve McClaren’s successor has finally been unmasked,
And, as the expected questions are quickly being asked,
Does it really matter greatly: to ignore the Premiership rule?
And does it leave things open to the greatest ridicule?

The average Boro fans’ thoughts are so utterly divided,
Myself? I just don’t know: I am really undecided,
So, why should we have in place, all these Rules and Regulations,
Then once again ignore such serious violations?

The Chairman’s certainly made a very bold decision,
Though some will, most definitely, view it with derision,
And Gareth Southgate claims that, “The sky is now the limit,”
Means the passion is most surely there; so let us now not dim it.

He won’t have too much time now in which to pussyfoot,
And he’ll quickly need to sign up the German, Robert Huth, **
Then, again, the Boro defence will be strongly fortified,
After Southgate’s boots are finally and forever laid aside.

In his five great Boro years Southgate’s been, well, almost stately,
He won us fame and Silverware and impressed me really greatly,
And, I’m sure that he will blossom on the managers’ merry-go-round,
For he knows the Boro inside-out and his qualities abound.

He’s no Pro-Licence Badge to show, but is that really evil?
When, for our favourite Boro, it means a great deal less upheaval,
So, to close, I wish him ‘all the best,’ and propose, furthermore,
This is better than some ‘unknown’ from a strange and foreign shore.
