When It’s Time To Go

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 If you’ve ever been there
If you’ve had the call
If you’ve had that feeling
Writing’s on the wall
Like some guilty party
In your heart you know
There is no alternative
When it’s time to go

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 When you see it coming
When you feel it’s near
Something tells you carry on
Overcome the fear
Ev’ry club goes through it
Ev’ry fan I know
In the end the coach must pay
When it’s time to go

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Seeming backings from above
Only bring delay
Rumours blowing in the wind
Closer draws the day
Toxic chants that manifest
From the stand in song
Leave us all in little doubt
It won’t be too long
Did you feel it coming?
We will never know
In the end it’s best for all
When it’s time to go

Notes

A poem on the moment it finally happens..the dreaded sack.
Team coach Ian Burchnall departs relegation threatened League One side Forest Green Rovers. At least he had the decency to thank the fans and club, unlike his predecessor Rob Edwards- now at Luton after being sacked by Watford.

24 hours later and Everton legend Big Dunc Ferguson is unveiled as Head Coach at FGR.

What a difference a day makes. Forest Green are still currently bottom of League One and who knows if we can retain our place here, come the end of the season , but it’ll sure be an interesting ride from here on in !
