2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Centreback One to Centreback Two.
Centreback Two to Centreback Three.
Centreback Three, what will he do?
He’ll turn and play it back with glee.
Will Centreback Two now make a run?
Or maybe he’ll try something new?
Ah no. He’s passed to Centreback One,
Who plays it back to Centreback Two.
On it goes to Centreback Three
Who taps it back to Centreback Two.
Maybe he’ll spread it diagonally?
Centreback One, how do you do?
Centreback Two gets back the pass,
Knocks it out wide to Centreback Three.
Centreback Three then shows his class
And kicks it back most skilfully.
Out it goes to Centreback One,
Who taps it back to Centreback Two.
Aren’t we having lots of fun?
Centreback Three, it’s gone to you.
Back it goes to Centreback Two,
Who clips it out to Centreback One,
Who can’t decide quite what to do.
Centreback Two? It’s said and done..

Thankfully there’s a God somewhere up there and Greece lost
