5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 odd-bod?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 I’m an expert (or so I’d like to think)
but I look back at pre-tournament predictions
and I’m way off beam

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 partly that was down to me
not wanting to jinx
my own team

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 but also
this World Cup has thrown-up
so many googlies

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 that it could nearly be cricket!
though that’s a kop-out
and leaves me on a sticky wicket….

10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 would I rather be right
and see all results
go to form?

11 Leave a comment on verse 11 0 or are we better off
far removed
from the pre-plotted norm?

12 Leave a comment on verse 12 0 for isn’t this unpredictability
actually
half the fun of the fayre?

13 Leave a comment on verse 13 0 to see teams going for it
when normally
they wouldn’t stand a prayer?

14 Leave a comment on verse 14 0 so are we prepared
to take
a pummelling with the odds?

15 Leave a comment on verse 15 0 especially when, as an unexpected bonus
it is England who potentially have
one of the World Cup winning squads?!?!?!

Notes

Congratulations to the absolutely amazing rescue teams!!!
