Football Poets

Great poem Peter .I’ ve mucked about with the way it appears on the page if you don’t like it let me know.

Nash’s genius?

How about the Pele of poets?!!!    😉

absolutely lovin’ it!

Sorry everyone. Away on holidays and not very good at the computer stuff anyway.

I had thought I was commenting on Verse 2, Lines 3 and 4. The whole poem is done in rhyming couplets – I was merely commenting on the fact that the rhyme there / disappeared sticks out like a sore thumb!!

Nothing to do with black and white!

no sadly…it’s my good mate Fred Chance…Sharon..great live music pub…in our village..

Big Yin! Is that Sir Billy Connolly far left on the main picture?

i should say so!

at  least the waistcoat is coming home then?   😉

is this being seen (wrongly i think) as a representation of the old minstrels show?

Crispin, to jump in and answer can you explain? I think Peter was referring to:

[The four home nations were all there
And England’s hopes soon disappeared]
