So Who’s been Gibbo’s best boss?

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Robbo, Tel, Gareth or Mac?
The headline smack,
Like the title of a cheap paperback
Written by a quack.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 ‘We let the stats decide’,
The bored hacks cried,
Facts and figures, the thorn in fan’s side
Can never override,
The Best Manager Riverside
Never Had.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 He is the greatest manager of any generation,
Honest it’s not an exaggeration.
He desperately wants to serve Middlesbrough Club
And it’s several pints bragging in the pub.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 If looks could kill
Number of his children would be nil,
Has great man management skills and goodwill
Can turn players from run-of-the-mill
Into stars who will thrill.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 With due respect to Robbo, Tel, Gareth or Mac,
It should not be the best manager, who’s had the sack,
But desperately wanted the job
And is willing for work for a few bob,
He’s not from Leningrad
Or hopping mad
He’s a local lad
Khadim Hussain
Is the Best Manager Riverside never had.
