Echoes

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 And it’s a tremendous save from Jaaskelainen
What a magnificent run from Lampard
Ferdinand must be the ultimate defender
Oh Stevie Gerrard, how did you miss that?
Surely Mr Rennie saw that
Arsene Wenger is on the touchline
And Jose Mourinho is livid
Rochdale need to score here
The pitch is waterlogged
Where has this fog come from?
C’mon Ref, book him
What a tremendous goal
A yellow card surely
Where was the linesman?
That was a clear foul
Stockport must now be down
And we say farewell to departing friends
Fans say they will be staging a protest
He’s missed the penalty!
And Arsenal have won the FA Cup.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Empty terraces
Now only ring
To echoes
