We’re Rob Martinez’ Army,
Throughout the Land well-known.
Our Faith is granite, adamant,
About that make no bones.

A Football Club, no brand, are we,
Worldwide is our renown –
On bark of trees across the globe
Engraved our name is found.

Our Stadium is Goodison,
Sweet Home with none to share,
And any thought of moving out
We find too hard to bear.

“Nil Satis Nisi Optimum!”
We bawl with pride-puffed chests.
(Though sadly this proud motto’s
No longer on our Crest).

We’ve little time for Tottenham,
We can’t abide Man U,
Nor either Club in Nottingham,
Or other teams in Blue.

We’re Marti’s Blueclad Peltasts,
From the murky Mersey’s shores,
And if you can’t decide who to support,
Come join us, climb aboard!

Denys E. W. Jones
Looking at the two previous poems in the trilogy as suggested in your notes Denys… on a personal level join the queue for clubs with new mangers on the not so merry go round…(FGR & Chelsea)
Our hearts go out to you….have you got some words lined up and are you anticipating another one or two more epic remakes with a different manager this season…or do you feel safe for bi\?
Just worried you might need to always have a ……….. …………….B&W Army poem always lined up for emergencies….
ps Are you sure we can’t have Rom back…how about 90 mill?
And are you cynical like me (although we never know who to trust or believe in the press…on what players really say about wanting to stay or leave)….but seriously was that whole thing a ploy for a salary increase only!? I won’t mention Rom but i do feel a poem coming on..re the very subject! Thoughts…?
