before going to the ground,
talk football between drinks
“don’t forget […]

He’s a great player
and so skilful
but he dives.

He’s a fox in the box
turns on a sixpence
but he dives.

He is gifted
a born striker
but he dives.

He’s a match winner
a touch of genius
but he […]

There’s rustling in the bush
by the training ground,
could it be a pesky fox
or a sniffing hound ?
There’s noise in that bush
probably just a bird,
or maybe the whistling wind
that we have all heard […]

Banana skin thrown
and racial abuse,
so ban the culprits
just no excuse.
Football’s not about colour
it’s supporting your side,
throw out the Neanderthals​
give them nowhere to hide.
It’s called The B […]

The Accrington Stanley fan got excited
when his team did score,
he jumped wildly in the air
as fellow supporters let out a roar.
His team were beating AFC Wimbledon
and they finally won 2-1,
but when he got […]

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

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

say while in the garden
you got bit by a tick.
It’s football’s showpiece
on every four […]

Excitement building

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