#sogladimnotaUtdfan!

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Well, you couldn’t have scripted the finish –
No-one would have believed it!
Not even Roy of the Rovers
Would have a writer could achieve it!

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 It was certainly Drama with a capital D
In the season finale foray
With a pendulum swing so fast
That fair took one’s breath away

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 I’m sure the chopper blades were whirring
With Plan B enacted
Premiership Trophy transferring
Then history suddenly redacted!

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 For Utd thought they had it won
With QPR a goal ahead
Then a late, late Dzeko equaliser
Before Aguerro makes it blue trumping red!

Notes

Apparently, the league trophy was at the Etihad Stadium, in readiness for presentation, but with a helicopter on stand-by to bring the Premiership trophy up to Sunderland, should QPR have beaten City.

Effectively, Utd finished their game against Sunderland as Premiership Champions!

Only for City to score two goals late into Fergie-time! Oh, the irony!

A season finale that will be remembered FOREVER!

The poem title: in twitter style – in the post match interview, Lineker and Kompany both mentioned the social medium
