Football Poets

Hi Crispin. Chris Sutton on the radio has gone for a Chelsea v Coventry final. As we know anything can happen in the Cup, and I reckon we can go to the final.
We’re still in with a chance of the play offs too, so lots to go for.

Hey Kev

Let the masses drool over their odds on City v Unted Final, but who knows how pressure can hit.

Cov and Chels will be rightly labelled as having no chance..but hey …stranger things have happened..

so Chelsea v Coventry…that’s the Final for us!

Hi Crispin,

How are you doing mate? Yes, you’re probably right but hey football is all about emotion and passion and I just love writing about the game. I try to keep my poetry to a reasonable length but there’s so much to write about the game and its literature just lends itself naturally to poetry. Sometimes I just get completely carried and I do apologise for the length of my poetry but it’s a great thrill to be associated with Football Poets.

Cheers mate

Joe

You’re right of course Joe but…..it’s actually more of a big welcome break for everyone who is not into Premier League ..I’m talking fans of EFL National League and below…..

Btw …is this actually your longest poem ever !?

Crispin

Thanks!

There’s something so evocative and  nostalgic for football fans the world over, in ‘revisiting’ old lost  grounds.

Occasionally some  remnants remain,  with perhaps part of a wall or part or a stand or thre shape of a terrace, but often  they are only still there in faded images and in our heads..

Great stuff Graham

A great idea and well executed. Thanks Graham.

Thanks Gacina, glad you liked it, and I have just posted a new one about our points deduction…

Today B.B.C post on F.B was titled:Premier League reduced to 18 clubs? I really think it may be interesting to see if this would be Everton’s nightmare and this poem is well suited for this concern.If there would be more difficult battle to stay if there were 18 teams.Great poem and somehow true.
