What Steve Wants

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 We need to find a number nine
Before it’s too late, to lead our line.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Someone good in the air, full of flair,
With nifty footwork, like Fred Astaire.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Who’ll press to help our midfield pack
In matches when we’re on the rack.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Able to hold up play, home and away,
And do the business, every Saturday.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Above all to score thirty goals a year
Like Alan Shearer in a different era.

Notes

Reflecting on the recent goal scoring problems of Newcastle United or my team Torquay United, one flirting with relegation, the other falling away from their early table topping form.
