Tottenham Swansong

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 The bird upon the Tottenham crest
Is not a cockerel, they’ve confessed.
In fact, it is a kindly swan
That once with Tottenham Hotspurs shone.
A full-back with a winning smile,
He played for Spurs for quite a while,
Admired from London to the Wirral,
The ne’er-forgotten “Nice Swan, Cyril.”
