    Toto,
    you broke our hearts
    but as life departs
    we can only weep and pray
    and thank God that we saw you play

    Football has always interjected into my life:
    intervened at my lowest points
    in reparative fashion, putting a smile on my face
    and mapped a path, back to the rat-race;

    It has capped my highest […]

    So near and yet so far….
    and yet here we are
    beaten finalists
    beaten by a better team
    who tramped all over
    our burgeoning dream

    Worthy winners Spain
    brought pain
    to our shores…
    we rowed our oars
    to […]

    We stand at the water’s edge….
    shall we succumb
    to Salacia’s salty stare
    and drown in our sorrow?
    Or will tomorrow’s
    final
    be the time to draw upon
    our modern armada – a flotilla of faithful fans
    egging […]

    Clik The Mouse commented on a poem on Football Poets 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Hi Crispin,

    I don’t know if you’ve see the picture in social media today…

    a picture of a teenage Lionel Messi cradling a baby in Africa as part of a photoshoot…. the family had won a lottery to have […]

    I could not sleep
    I could not work
    all this pent-up nervousness
    just drove me berserk!

    And so I tried listening to Bob Dylan….
    “the nerves, they are a-changing”
    yes indeed they are…. escalating […]

    Pre-match…
    our hopes were muted
    any overt optimism disputed….
    and just like the election
    there’s too much circumspection

    mid-match…
    well, our overall play has improved
    if only slightly
    but dare we say […]

    “There is little difference
    between obstacle and opportunity.
    The wise are able to turn both
    to their advantage”. Machiavelli

    We just need Foden
    to turn both defenders
    slide an inch perfect pas […]

    Hey Potch!

    Howdy pardner….
    Come and join us, for a scotch
    as we review the season:
    there is no reason
    for us to be happy
    so we’ll make this snappy….

    we failed to notch
    any home runs
    we did not win […]

    When a player dominates a game
    to the extent
    that no other could be considered extant….

    When a player cruises
    beyond bruises
    and delivers shock and awe…

    and a four purloined score…

    how then
    to ackno […]

    When was the last time England really got me excited?
    I forget
    Who was the last England manager that I really, really trusted to lead our troops?
    I forget
    Why was it that Lampard, Gerard, Scholes didn’t g […]

    14th March, annually; where Pi = 3.14159 etc

    IF ONLY
    my team could generate Pi for points
    based on: not only winning
    but winning well
    with audaciousness
    with commitment and effort
    with an extra element […]

    This little-boy-masquerading-as-senior-citizen
    still dreams –
    but it seems
    reality is ever more clear-cut;

    for every piercing pain
    or aching joint
    brings an inevitablility of non-attainment
    to this football-nut!

    I buried myself in my sport
    There’s no doubt I gave it my all
    For whenever a match was mentioned
    Without fail, I always heeded the call

    Put a ball at my feet
    And I was off like a whippet
    Always to the s […]

    It’s coming home!
    It is….
    Isn’t it?

    Not to wash or cook or clean
    But on achievement of a dream
    Where the Ladies
    Will be lauded, applauded, and awarded
    The freedom of every city
    Achieving legendary statu […]

    “C’MON YOU BLUES!”

    My team
    My chant
    But I just can’t
    Bring it to bear
    Tonight…
    Not because I don’t care
    But because
    There are teams of similar hue;
    Don’t get me wrong
    I’ll always be true
    To me an […]

    Come together….
    Every man, woman and child
    And watch our spirits run free
    As we turn football wild!

    Let’s take all the shackles off
    From playing with precision
    And let the hearts dictate the pla […]
