McKeon is a Shelbourne Ref

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 McKeon is a Shelbourne ref,
That’s ludicrously clear,
When Shelbourne score,
He lets a roar
And gives a mighty cheer.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 He whistles in Shels favour
With enormous zeal and zest,
And ‘neath the dirt
On his black shirt,
There’s Dulux on his chest.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Whenever Jayo scores, it is
Impossible to miss him,
His arms entwine
Our number nine,
Then starts to hug and kiss him.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Those red and yellow cards, McKeon
Will simply never show us,
But they’ll come out,
Without a doubt,
For Rovers, Pats and Boez.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Ollie tried to get McKeon
At every Shelbourne fixture.
He didn’t know why
The FAI
Insisted on a mixture.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 They say he’s a director
And has shares in Tolka Park,
And hangs around
That famous ground,
But only after dark.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Three castles tattooed on his arse,
According to the rumour,
And Ollie buys
Him whiskey ryes
When he is in the humour.

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 The fact that he is biased is
As obvious as Day-Glo,
What’s more, his one
And only son
Goes by the name of Geogo.

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 The worst thing is, that he does not
Admit his wicked follies,
Not strange, because
We think he was
A bastard son of Ollie’s.

10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 Yes, McKeon is a Shelbourne ref,
So don’t intimidate him,
But please explain
To me again
Why Shelbourne fans all hate him.

Notes

Retort to the accusations that a seriously inept ref is a “Shelbourne ref”
