POEM 7

Well, you started painfully slow
but you now have reached the final
God only knows how
and we might just win that title🏆

Not one much for football
but this one’s really special 
and to win it for us tonight
would just be so exceptional 

Can't imagine the pressure
which is heaped upon our boys
the abuse the frustration, 
chants and deafening noise

It's ok for us watching, 
sitting comfortably drinking beer
like gladiators thrown into the pit
anticipation hope and fear

It could end up fantastic 
or, it could be disappointing
we’ll wish you the very best of luck
and hope we'll be rejoicing

If we win we’ll be ecstatic, 
with jubilation and tears
but if we lose - don't worry too much
we've waited 58 years
