Boring Premier League

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 So Chelsea will be champions
their fans elated at the Bridge,
but watching them play is as exciting
as staring at a pot of yoghurt in a fridge.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Let’s face the truth and be honest
the Premier League is second rate,
it’s full of diving cheating posers
and the football isn’t that great.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 And the supporters are getting ripped off
having to pay over the odds for a seat,
so the working class fan can only afford
to go now and again as a treat.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 But if you want real entertainment
and to watch players giving it their all,
go to a game outside of the Premier
where you’ll see proper football.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 The Premier League is all about money
it’s moved so far away from it’s roots,
the wages some players get is obscene
making many get too big for their boots.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 So you can keep your top division
and it’s television love affair with Sky,
as it’s riddled with greedy agents
and dodgy oil sheiks from Dubai !

Notes

As you can guess I’m not a big fan of the so called Premier League,to me it’s overrated and many of the games I’ve watched on t.v. have been boring and a big let down to be honest.
There are some top players but that is overshadowed by the divers and cheats and let’s face it only three or four clubs are ever going to lift the title.I know the aim of the majority of clubs is to reach the Premier League but I’d be happy for my club to have a few seasons back in the Championship as it’s exciting and with honest players etc.

Editor: Ouch! Having been through decades like Cov …as a Chelski fan …you do what you have to do…money talks these days sadly…on the other hand I just snapped up the last seat for Forest Green Rovers v Dover on Sat ..win and we’re in the play -offs..we can but dream…
