What Cloughie would have done with this football poem

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Roared at it
Disparaged it
Cursed it
Cajoled it
Chided it
Cuffed it
Cuddled it
Kissed it
Talked it up
Cut it down to size
Torn it up
Binned it
Re-written it
Worked in the phrase ‘young man’
Then proclaimed it as the best poem ever

Notes

On watching the documentary tribute to Brian Clough
last night on BBC, narrated by John Motson.

So many moving tributes to the main man.

I particularly loved the exchanges with Muhammed Ali.

Posted in green, in honour of his much loved tracksuit top.
