It’s been a terrible dire few seasons
For us Bolton fans to take
We have suffered two relegations
And a winding up order heartbreak
Our Chairman sadly passed away
Phill Gartside we’ll never forget
And we […] -

He came to us with great expectation
After his stint at Celtic park
But Neil hasn’t cut the cloth
He’s way below the mark
His team selections are baffling
And the fans have had enough
Another relegation loo […] -

For quite a while now I’ve been dormant
But I feel I must express my feeling
My club could have been relegated
Because this season has not been appealing
For years we’ve been terribly managed
And Freedman was the […] -

Oi Freedman!!! What’s going on
Are you sure you know what to do
This a nightmare your putting us through
It seems that you havn’t a clue
Well that’s the fans point of view
Are we gonna end up playing Crewe […] -

Does Doogie realise we’re bad or has he turned a blind eye
I sat there on Saturday as 90 mins passed me by
How can a team be so shot shy
Time for Zat to say bye bye
And go and buy myself a black tie
Sort it out […] -

I went to the reebok today to see my beloved team
And I ended up listening to a live Radio stream
Cos I went with a season ticket in order to upgrade
But I was short of the tariff which left me dismayed.The […]

We’d a terrible time last year when Coyle was in charge
He took us down a league
He talked a good game and his ego was large
But his players were unfit with fatigueWe thought he’d get sacked but the chairman per […]

Sixty two quid, are you serious or having a laugh?
I aint paying that on no one’s behalf
The working class fans cannot take anymore

Well done City fans for sending […] -

Deluded Dug is the new man in charge
And is as stubborn as a mule
His team selections baffle
And he`s a complete utter fool
He waits until the team’s behind
Before he makes a change
And then he springs a right […] -

What`s right and wrong in these political correct times
I`ve been visited by police for writing football rhymes
Bolton Wanderers had reported me over something that I`d said

When two strange looking visitors came knocking at my door
I noticed they were in uniform what have they got in store
They said it`s really nothing just a complaint they had received

Another sad day another defeat
Even though we kept a clean sheet
Extra time and still no score
England games are such a bore
Our passing is terrible we give the ball away
Even our superstar Rooney was poor on the […] -

In these days of fair-weather football my mind drifts back when I was young
We played on rutted pitches with long grass puddles and piles of dung
We sometimes played twice a week even after a hard days graft

If you were allowed to introduce a new rule what would it be?
I have an idea to double the points and gain an extra three,
Especially when you believe the opposition is a tad mediocre
That is the time for the club […] -

It`s not looking good for Bolton as results have been so poor
And fans are now shouting for Owen Coyle to be shown the door
But who will replace him that could turn the rot around
We certainly don`t want to see […] -

Hi Joe
Shouldn’t your title read your poem Farewell Europe England to everyone exccept Aston Villa ?
I know you mention them in your poem , but I do feel sorry for Villa re the national press .
Largely ignored. the hype was was all about Man City & Arsenal with a bit of a nod to the Hammers..but hardly a mention of Villa..
So well done to them

Hi Crispin. Chris Sutton on the radio has gone for a Chelsea v Coventry final. As we know anything can happen in the Cup, and I reckon we can go to the final.
We’re still in with a chance of the play offs too, so lots to go for.

Hey Kev
Let the masses drool over their odds on City v Unted Final, but who knows how pressure can hit.
Cov and Chels will be rightly labelled as having no chance..but hey …stranger things have happened..
so Chelsea v Coventry…that’s the Final for us!

Hi Crispin,
How are you doing mate? Yes, you’re probably right but hey football is all about emotion and passion and I just love writing about the game. I try to keep my poetry to a reasonable length but there’s so much to write about the game and its literature just lends itself naturally to poetry. Sometimes I just get completely carried and I do apologise for the length of my poetry but it’s a great thrill to be associated with Football Poets.
Cheers mate

You’re right of course Joe but…..it’s actually more of a big welcome break for everyone who is not into Premier League ..I’m talking fans of EFL National League and below…..
Btw …is this actually your longest poem ever !?
