1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Well done Rovers,
You’ve made a super start.
And what is more,
Odra’s back four
Were simply poles apart.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Well done Rovers,
Please do not mess it up
A win’s a must
Although it’s just
The Intertoto Cup.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Well done Rovers
You have a decent chance.
Maintain supply
Both low and high
To either of the Grants.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Well done Rovers,
You played with great incision,
I don’t know how
But clearly now
You are in Pole position.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Well done Rovers
[Although it sickens me]
Till Sunday’s over
I’m a Rover,
Temporarily.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Well done Rovers,
I’m sure you’re cock-a hoop,
But just beware,
I’m sure that they’re
Quite anxious to regroup.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Well done Rovers,
You’ve set the tie up well,
I’m sure the noise
Will Buck the boys,
When they return to Hell.

Notes

Grudging approbation for Shamrock Rovers on their first round first leg away Intertwobob victory in Poland. They finished the job at home.
Resubmitted with an offending word altered.
