Letters to Santa

Sunday, December 24th, 2006

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 The Premiership’s twenty bosses
have written to Santa Claus,
hoping to cut their losses,
get their seasons back on course.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Fergie’s asked for a new hairdryer
as his old one’s run out of steam;
Reed wants to get out of the mire –
he’s asked for a brand new team.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Jose’s asked Santa for money
in order to re-gain top spot
whilst Arsene’s wish is for Henry
to help Arsenal to win the lot.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Blades’ stressed out manager, Warnock
wants to go on anger management course;
Moyes, Everton’s resident Jock,
needs AJ to carry the torch.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Villa’s O’Neill’s feeling Randy;
he’s begging for much-needed dough;
any win for Watford’d be handy;
their progress so far has been slow.
