Pogba at eighty nine mill
We’re assured is an absolute steal
Though a red faced Govan knight
Who had the foresight to bid him bye bye
Will be gutted he sold him for zilch!
Peace. View

Sat in the stands (sic) in my cheap plastic seat, Eden Hazard in his prime appeared at least to me A little smiling faced kid, having unfathomable fun That he chose to turn down a shed (sic) load o’ dough To put on a show in empty stadia, where few punters go? Says a lot […]

Peeling spuds, washing glasses Using knives n forks, serviettes and plates With us…t’was greasy mitts in a chicken box, Blue shirt proclaiming; “Gian-Franco Zola. God!” Quaffing Stella by a mega aqueous telly with his mates. Then this right blinding sort moved in Inspired an immediate change in him Why… he even pressed the whistle worn […]

Carefree…we’ve finally elected our M.P. But will he turn out be…the absolute db’s? Could be eventually. Though…looks to me Like we’ll just have to wait and see, won’t we? If, or when we get relegated with Man City After what we’ve seen go down at Everton F.C. Likelihood o’ that, looks more than a possibility. […]

Drop o’ rare old mountain dew Silver flask passed twixt a few Helped keep howling cross field chills at bay After mass, hastily assembled over The Scrubs, Cheered on by muckers and close bloods Deemed a proper pukka start to one’s Sunday. These German students, so they say Apparently primed for affray in their play Intended inflicting hurt, right from the off, Angry […]

Picture The Scene. Sloane Street. London. 10-52… An empty sherbet, flagged down by a bald good-looking bloke, Says, clearly desperate to get his derriere up and on the go, “Driver, please take me to The Chelsea Arts Club a.s.a.p. and could you do so on the hurry-up, before closing, please?”, This is very much mission-far-from […]

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 !?
