Four-in-a-row

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Charlton’s little known Paul Konchesky
Delivered a whole lot more
Than big name (big frame) Emile Heskey

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 And even though Liverpool’s Chris Kirkland is rated highly
He conceded two, but there was no getting past
The agile and athletic, keeper Kiely

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 But it’s not the curse of Curbs
That perturbs
Gerard Houllier

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 One point from a possible fifteen
Since they hit top spot
Something’s gotta change, to stop the rot

Notes

Inspired by Charlton setting a Premiership record for themselves, 7.12.2002
For the record, their manager : Alan Curbishley, their keeper : Dean Kiely
On the same night, BBC’s Match of the Day covered the FA Cup 2nd Round
They delighted in the following rhyme’s :
Goalscoring hero “Dean Green”
Referee “Mike Pike”
Penalty taker “Brammer hammer”
And goalkeeping blunder “Mitten’s kittens”
