They said we were ungrateful,
When we sacked Allardyce.
Now Marco Silva cannot say
That he’s been treated nice.

But football is a business,
For sentiment no room,
So poor old Marco had to go,
‘Cos relegation looms.

“Nil Satis Nisi Optimum?
What is this joke, this jest?
No satisfaction do you get,
You’ll never be the best.”

To such jibes we have long grown used,
Our critics never rest.
Yet still we cry “Come On You Blues!”
With unabated zest.

We Bluenoses are loyal,
As faithful as they come.
As true as any you might find
In London, Leeds or Brum.

We’ve had much to put up with,
Yet we don’t stay away,
For Everton we shall support
Until we’re in our graves.

Hi Denys, it’s great to have another Toffee posting on Footy Poets. I haven’t contributed for some time, but if you click my name you’ll find some Everton poems going back several years.
