Football Poets

It’s the first sign of a new season
when all the new players are on show
yes it’s here the first of the friendly games
but you’re thinking shall I bother to go ?

The local paper though is building it up
even […]

After a wonderful European Championship
where Spain proved that they are the best
we’ve now got Football in the Olympics
there’s hardly time to take a rest.

Then when the Olympics is over
the Football Season gets […]

Only one Mexican Wave all match
my poem must have got through
so hopefully that’s the end of it
to be replaced with something new.

And the cameras stayed mainly on the pitch
so us viewers could focus on the […]

I think it should be banned
it looks pathetic and out of date
you’re there to watch the football
even when it’s boring and far from great.

England fans just sat with folded arms
and if I was there so would I
they […]

So the Euro’s are coming to a close
and the Final is just a day away
all in all I think it’s been a good one
and it beats boring Wimbledon any day.

Who’d have thought Greece would go far
and those Germans succumb […]

It’s Beckham this and Beckham that
the bloke seems to be everywhere
is he looking for World domination ?
but tell you the truth I don’t really care.

Yes he once was a pretty decent player
who could cross and […]

Two missed penalties
so England are going home
Italy go through.

But the best team won
Italy looked more sharper
England defended.

Wayne Rooney sluggish
looked at times a pub player
Hodgson made error.

Not all […]

The fans in the crowd
all those pointing at themselves
at their faces on screen.

The slightest tackle
players lay in agony
then jump up again.

Too many adverts
when all we want is football
it gets on your […]

England got lucky against Ukraine
as that ball had crossed the line
but it happened before to Frank Lampard
so in the end it turned out just fine.

The Three Lions aren’t playing that well
but then again they’re […]

Yes that Ronaldo
madly in love with himself
but what a player.

Those flippin Germans
so really hard to beat
going all the way ?

Congratulations
giving your nation a lift
well done to the Greeks.

Dismal […]

Went to the pub to watch the match
but hardly saw a thing at all
the boozer was packed to the rafters
but not all wanted to view the football.

The jukebox was blasting out tunes
and some lads were even playing […]

I’m really enjoying the European Championship
as the teams are giving it their all
already there’s been some cracking goals
and games full of quality and passing football.

Shevchenko’s two headed goals were […]

The Jubilee celebrations are finally over
our Queen’s had her Fifteen minutes of fame
now it’s football’s turn to to take centre stage
as millions of Europeans watch the Beautiful Game.

England for once are […]

The local paper’s back page
read about our football team
which player is leaving today ?
it’s enough to make you scream.

Our club is in a right old state
the tax man is sniffing about
talk in the pubs of […]

What another weekend of football
games that could have gone either way
nothing but a fag paper between them
especially the one in Munich on Saturday.

Chelsea were so dogged in defence
as Bayern went constantly on […]

It’s been called the hardest job in the game
and it can turn dark hair overnight into Grey
some say it’s tougher than being Prime Minister
so what is this job then I hear you say ?

Well I’ll tell you it’s being […]

Every football club has a legendary player
and they don’t have to be a household name
but to the fans that player was just special
because he did it all for the love of the game.

A legend is sometimes just a real […]

Holloway’s done it again
he’s at Wembley once more
there’s never a dull moment
with Olly and that’s for sure.

I’m a one club supporter
Cov City through and through
but I have a soft spot for Blackpool
even though […]

At last they’ve named the new manager
so it’s time for all the hype to begin
but I really pity poor old Roy Hodgson
especially when his team fail to win.

The press will be out to get him
when all he can do is try […]

Pep Guardiola is quitting Barcelona
because he wants the Coventry hot seat
his aim is to make the Sky Blues the best
and like Barcelona hardly ever get beat.

As he’s always wanted to play in League One
Lionel […]
