Football Poets

We thought it was coming home
to where football all began,
our young Lions battled hard
every player to a man.
But it wasn’t meant to be
they just ran out of steam,
as on the night Croatia
were the better […]

He scored the opening goal
so against Sweden England led,
the ball nestled in their net
put there by Slab Head.
An unlikely hero
in the shirt of red,
he’s a big lad
is young Slab Head.
He’s good in the […]

England win a penalty shoot out
now I don’t want to gloat,
but the secret behind it ?
Gareth Southgate’s waistcoat.
Colombia played really dirty
they went for our players throat,
but the Three Lions stayed […]

Yes it’s really happened
it really is true,
no it’s not a joke
Germany lost 0-2.
They’ve been knocked out
now that is a blow,
but I can’t stop laughing
at their World Cup woe.
The tournament is wide […]

Back In The U.S.S.R.
England can go far,
and in Harry Kane
we’ve got a Shooting Star.
The players are now Heroes
many were just Born To Run,
and they swept aside Panama
banging in goals in the […]

Go to the bookies
and put on a World Cup bet
two quid that will do.
Place is really full
matches shown live on TVs
punters drinking tea.
So I place my bet
England 2-1 Kane first goal
that’s a good […]

Fans see themselves
as a camera zooms in,
their on the big screen
so they point and grin.
They go a bit nutty
a few seconds of fame,
spectators start to pose
not watching the game.
Many on their […]

Stock up the fridge
with pizzas and beer,
as the World Cup
is finally here.
Cancel that holiday
go on the sick,
say while in the garden
you got bit by a tick.
It’s football’s showpiece
on every four […]

FACup third round
all the balls are in the bag
give them a good shake.

Excitement building
your teams number on the screen
so who do you want ?

Premier League club
or a non league side away
a local […]

To come out on top
be the best on the day,
you’ll need loads of oomph
at home and away.
To end up the winner
and stay in the lead,
you’ll need lots of oomph
to thrive and succeed.
To be called a […]

Enough is enough
unfit owners it’s time to go,
just leave our clubs alone
as they sink further down below.
Enough is enough
inadequate owners there’s the door,
and never ever come back
as we can’t take this […]

He’s always feeling sick
got pains in his head,
constantly on edge
nerves torn to a shred.
His hair much greyer
face ashen and pale,
he’s smoking again
drinking too much ale.
He can’t get to sleep
paces […]

My club is doing my head in
going from bad to worse,
they are dropping like a stone
make you swear and curse.
My club is doing my head in
all they ever do is lose,
they’re bad for your health
make you turn […]

Bring back rattles
let’s hear that click,
the ones we used to have
made of wood and thick.
Bring back rattles
in the colours of your side,
make plenty of noise
not shy away or hide.
Bring back rattles
for […]

Many affluent owners
love wielding the axe,
they’ll get rid of the gaffer
by twitter,email,or fax.
So managers come and go
through a revolving door,
but they take it on the chin
and keep coming back for […]
