We really love our football
and we watch it on TV,
We like to watch the English
Premier League - but sadly
it isn’t free!
The top teams are in action -
and they show a lot of skill,
But they don’t like playing
in Winter time in case they
catch a chill!
Let’s go back some decades
and marvel at some players,
Bobby Charlton played midfield -
and he could strike the ball so
fierce.
Then came George Best, he
never liked to train -
He was always down the pub -
his drinking did remain.
Dennis Law came along - and
he also played for Man City,
Scoring a crafty goal - which
he really did so pity.
He was a Scot and he could
play - he was the prodigal son,
But that crafty little back-heel -
sent United to Division One!
Then came Sir Alex Ferguson -
he was a canny Scot,
He had all the best players in
sight - so he bought the blinking
lot!
He was so very successful, this
we can’t deny,
But if he ever lost a game - he’d
give a little sigh!
He also conquered Europe, just
like the Busby babes,
Winning every trophy there -
and he never wore his shades!
His mouth would rotate a lot -
and more trophy’s were to come,
Thanks to his winning style - and
his beloved chewing gum!!!!
Sir Alex has now retired - and Van
Gaal is now the manager -
Trying his best to win the games -
with Ryan Giggs, his deputy mentor.
They have been very busy - in
the signings of new players,
But missing out on a player -
that turned them all to jeers!!!!
We really love our football - that
is very clear,
Watching them run around - and
never show any fear!
The English Premier League - is
where the action is -
But don’t forget the Champions
League - for it too is really BLISS!
