Football Poets

Meet in the pub before the match
talk football over a beer,
then have a few more
as the ground is ever so near.

Meet in the pub before the match
just got in before the rain,
good excuse for some pints
plenty of […]

Well England are on their way
so now let all the hype begin,
in fact Roy Hodgson has now said
he thinks his young Lions can win.

But hang on a minute there Roy
haven’t we heard that many times before ?
as every […]

Almost twenty thousand polish fans
will be inside Wembley tonight,
they should create some noise
and be packed in together tight.

But will they witness a victory
and stop England once more ?
just like they did […]

England’s number one goalie
is having a dodgy spell,
he looks very jittery
isn’t he very well ?

England’s number one stopper
doesn’t look at his best,
but he still gets picked
so is he better than the rest […]

To watch my team play at home
I would have to travel away
a round trip of seventy miles
and usually on a Sunday.

But I just will not go
as I haven’t the desire nor will
so I won’t set foot in Northampton
not even […]

Ashley Young is like Tom Daly
as he sure can make a dive
he twists through the air
like he’s doing the Jive.

That Ashley Young is crafty
I hear he earns lots of cash
is that for cheating referees ?
as he sure […]

Twenty four hours of deals
in they come, out they go
some to the Premier League
others to divisions below.

The fans are getting edgy
will their best player leave ?
the manager’s staying tight lipped
has he got […]

You follow them home and away
through thick and thin
you keep on going
lose, draw, or win.

But when do you stop
that’s it and call it a day
your enthusiasm has gone
you no longer want to see them play ?

This […]

So we’ve lost our Football ground
and now our “home” games are away
we have been”asked” to go to Northampton
with the first match to be played on Sunday.

But the vast majority of us aren’t going
we will never go […]

I should be feeling excited
on the eve of a new campaign
instead I’m feeling morose
and full of anguish and pain.

Today my club has been deducted points
with threats that it could liquidate
we are going to play […]

We all gathered together in Gosford Green
turned the park a sea of Sky Blue
Coventry City fans standing defiant
against the move to Northampton and SISU.

Walking together as One to Broadgate
led by two Lady […]

My Football Club is making me ill
I don’t think I can take much more
my nerves are in pieces
and I’ve punched a hole in the Door.

My Football Club is making me ill
and each day I’m feeling worse
all us fans get […]

It’s another Saturday afternoon
and I don’t know what to do
I think I’ll write a poem
then again I may do a few.

The reason I’m so restless
and fidgeting about
is because I’m missing Football
as I need to sing […]

Kids on the terraces
wooden Rattles in hand
back in the days
when it was fine to stand.

The atmosphere electric
crowds packed in tight
a sea of Sky Blue
what an awesome sight.

The Jimmy Hill revolution
a breath […]

Football is called The Beautiful Game
but there is a bad side as well
like so called Chelsea fans
giving poor old Rafa Hell.

And what about Mancini
ruthlessly shown no pity
he only won the Premier League
and the […]

The Football season is now ending
Saturdays for a while won’t be the same
so now I’ll get the usual withdrawals
without my fix of going to a game.

Sometimes I wish I could be like a Hedgehog
then I could just go […]

So Sir Alex has retired
he’s finally called it a day
no more looking at his watch
wondering how long to play.

No more Hair-dryer treatment
or throwing tea cups around
no more berating Referees
or Fergie time at […]

Wigan Athletic
are up to their tricks again
great escape back on ?

Villa win again
now Newcastle are in it
and Norwich as well ?

Bale to the rescue
as Tottenham leave it late
Champions League place ?

Merseyside […]

Nail biting fixtures
at the top and the bottom
Champagne corks popping ?

Reading,Q.P.R.
down to the Championship
who’s joining them ?

Could it be the Villa
or Newcastle United
Wigan Athletic ?

Cardiff are the […]

He’s got razor sharp teeth
designed to gnaw and bite
he likes to go for the Arm
where he’ll chew and grip on tight.

Is this a Canine you’re describing
a wild and and feral Beast
who likes to feed on Humans
and on […]
