Charles Buchan Annual
Got one every Christmas
Football fans delight.

Pictures of our football past
Jimmy greaves smoking.

Scarf, rattle, and Cov City kit
New ball in the snow.

Christmas is coming
When games will come thick and fast
Lots of points to gain.

Slipping down the table fast
Long winter ahead.

At home this season, yippee !
It’s a six pointer.

Three wins for Coventry City
Nine points, HO, HO, HO !

Notes

Another iffy season for my team, that’s all we seem to get, up and down, but you just have to keep going, I guess that’s the definition of a football fan, durability !
