Well Gutted…

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 But our girls thoroughly deserve a big round of applause
Like me, they must be gutted by their semi-final defeat
To a fluke of an own goal, and a right dodgy penalty
Stuck away by Wee Jimmy Krankie.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Still we gave their condescending team coach a right fright
For disrespecting us prior to the game
So A Big Thanks to The Team for the late night excitement
Now Lucy Bronze (sic) and co just need to beat the old foe
(Without going to pens once again)
To secure a well earned third place come Saturday night.

Notes

I thought the English Ladies team showed just what the word…team means – to me at least – playing together as one for the common good. I’ve really enjoyed the matches during tournament that I’ve managed to catch.

It’s also been cool to be not fancied (for once) and then shock the opposition, by giving a real go, and really do well for a change.

Lucy Bronze is magic…

Stay well, be lucky and keep smiling.

Peace.

Kev.
