Seventeen Lines About Our Number Ten

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 He started off at number five.
The fox in the box, always alive

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 is Billy
and we’d have been silly

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 not to snap him up from the Lane.
For he scores again and again

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 and we’re not convinced there’s anyone greater.
Forms a deadly duo with Hayter

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 and sometimes he’s paired up top with Fairhurst
Watch him closely or the net will burst.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 For our new number ten is top of the pops,
runs rings around opposition with Oster and Copps.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 You take your eyes off him for just one sec
And you’ll see the ball nestling in the back of your net

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 Has talent in spades
We signed him from the Blades…

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 And he’s definitely Sharp.

Notes

A tribute to Billy Sharp, the record signing at Doncaster Rovers who got his first goal of the season at the weekend 🙂
