1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 #5 – Kick and Run

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 A rudimentary kick and run
eventually will be outdone
but see you further up the table;
make supporters think you able.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 #6 – Keepers

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 When trying to fill the keeper’s role,
don’t ask “Who wants to go in goal?”
If there’s a thing to ask at all
it’s “Who here’s played some basketball?”

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 #7 – Pedigree

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Beware revealing where you’ve played.
County rep is great, that said,
The more you tell, the more they know.
Before you spoke, they saw a pro.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 #8 – Names

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 I’ve found a sure-fire way to know
their names. They follow “Way to go, ___!”
Why so much faith in the declarants?
They tend to be that player’s parents.
