He`s a cracking lad is Fabrice but he`s got a lot to learn
And a certain part of his game is a cause for some concern
He wins the ball from opponents then tries a shot from far
But every time Muamba shoots the […] -

Big Phil had an idea that no one could ignore
His mind’s been working overtime to make the Reebok roar.
Not happy with the atmosphere he`d give anything a try
He may well get a Wembley song courtesy of M […] -

As the Towers were demolished at the Stadium of Wembley
Not a dry eye in sight from the fans in assembly

But just a mass of old debris that’s strewn on the floor.A new S […]

He`s handed in a transfer request for reasons quite unknown
We knew that all weren’t right with Ricks as performances have shown
Instead he wants to leave us and desert the sinking boat
Well be better off w […] -

These magical days of the F A cup when only ten thousand bothered to turn up,
We suppose that’s all the fixture deserves when Sam turned out a team of reserves,
But we earned the chance of another bite and off w […] -

Let us all imagine just what it would be like
If the Wanderers were successful in their premiership plight
A top six place or a European spot
For most of us supporters that would top the lot
But it`s not going to […] -

These are my thought of a most hated guy,
A spikey haired bstard who`s a pundit at sky,

I went to the Alaves game on Tuesday night,

On top of my ticket and car parking fees,
Two pints of weak […] -

Hi Denys,
Yes Richard Williams you’re a brilliant wordsmith, my friend. When I first saw your football poetry I thought it was the superb Guardian sports and music writer. I once had the honour of sitting next to Richard Williams while at the Independent on the sports desk. He writes about music and sport with immense knowledge and authority. I’ve read a couple of Richard’s books recently. Great writer rather like you Richard Williams the Pompey fan. Congratulations on promotion.

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!
Best
