3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 it’s only at the back-end of the season
that we’ll really see the front-runners;
rewind
foresight here and now,
might just crystalise the Gunners?

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 or perhaps we’ll be seduced
pre-campaign
by the billions from Roman urns
and Chelski’s free-flowing champagne?

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 but elsewhere, ambition also burns
will it be the striped Magpies
who manage to steal away
with the cherished Premiership prize?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 or will the pride of Merseyside
Houllier’s reds
regain their former glories
and tear the opposition to shreds?

other than United

as the winds blow stronger
and the nights grow longer?

as the pitches freeze
and ditches fill with trees?

when grounds are covered in snow
and morale is running low?

when the turkey and stuffing
seperate the perky and puffing

as we enter into Spring
and centre from the wing?

14 Leave a comment on verse 14 0 Who shall prevail
as the light returns
and ambition brightly burns?

15 Leave a comment on verse 15 0 Who shall prevail
as we spy the finishing post
and see, just who wants it most?

for when everyone else has failed
only one team will have prevailed!
