We had a couple of —– good cup runs,
but in the league we weren’t too clever,
so it was only a matter of time,
’til we shipped out poor old Trevor.

I got the news last Friday,
a Good one it was too,
that my old mate Trevor Francis,
had finally got the shoe.

I was totally heartbroken,
that Trevor’s gone away,
so much so that I celebrated,
with a bottle of Chardonnay.

do the same yourself Trev,
and can you do it fast.
