Football Poets

Ha!! Just brilliant! I can hear this being sung. So funny!

I love this verse as I know exactly that feeling of living in a fantasy while kicking the ball as a kid. Makes me wonder what fantasy world professional players live in when they dribble, pass and shoot? Hopefully it’s doesn’t always feel like routine job fired them

Best wishes, mate
