Well Deserved.

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Forget about the millionaire players
Like managers they all come and go
But we have a special lady at United
Whose name you probably wont know.
Forty years she has worked at St James’s
As a valued member of staff.
And all of the lads in the media
Are always looked after by Kath.
She will never be on the back pages
Or hand in a transfer request
Demand lucritive contracts
But at the ‘TOON ‘ she is one of the best.
If only some of our players
Would take advice and follow her path
And show as much dedication
As our silver haired lady called Kath.
