Football Poets

Just beautiful imagery Alex…love your stuff….keep on..can’t remember where you live (probably not near ‘Arry in Poole lol) but we’ll have to get you up to Forest Green one day…

Would be great to meet up… if FGR play any where near you too.let me know..I’ll be getting to the odd away game now.

Great poem…keep on …I know the feeling!

And more nonsense please!

I’ve always been a big fan of Eddie’s!

Nicely done.

Great poem on a wonderful achievement for FGR.
Now let’s hope my team and Forest Green battle it out for top spot next season. If the Sky Blues top the division the vegan pies are on me ! ☺

Wonderful, touching poem. You have done them proud expressing your feelings about their achievement.

Good luck! Hope to see you on Sunday if I can make it.

Great use of wordplay on names Ianthe. Especially liked Lingard…as in a classic Cranberries song’Let It Lingar!’

Hi Graham – I’m really pleased to see that you’re annotating your poems verse-by-verse. Did you know you can also highlight a bit of text in a verse and comment on that? Hover over this comment to see what I highlighted.

Not forgetting folk hero Robin Friday who started a now commonplace trend by kissing a policeman after scoring against Rochdale in 1975

“The policeman looked so cold and fed up standing there that I decided to cheer him up a bit,” he explained.
