`If, If, If (as we´re expecting) The Miracle Doesn´t Happen` Two thousand thirteen to two thousand fourteen Is not one we´ll remember fond, If it should cause here in this final week Exit from the Premier League pond Everyone here has their own special thoughts As to the why´s and the wherefore´s of this, But we´ve talked and written all that to death So this ode will give that a miss Recriminations are little use now If we are to bounce back again, Out with the old wood and in with some new Surely has to be our first aim There´ll be a few who some others may prize While loanees will head off back home, Also those we´ve loaned out to other clubs Will return to the Delia Dome But before any reshuffling is done With players, the Manager´s berth, Has to be sorted and as quickly too As possible, for what it´s worth We can´t let the months of May and June pass Before taking some action here, The sooner a decision´s made on that front The better chance we´ll have next year I´m not sure Adams is ready just yet To be plunged in the Championship sea, Bearing in mind the longer we stay there The harder to leave it will be Also the question of McNally D May arise in some people´s minds, He might also feel the burden´s too much Himself, and decide to resign I hope he resists such a drastic step As he´s done far more good than not, And if he can produce one more brilliant scoop Like Lambert, all will be forgot But whoever does get the chance to take charge Will have a big job on their hands, Just as a winning run breeds confidence So losing drains players and fans Personally, although the Premier League With its glamour and ´glitterness´, Is still the only place I´d rather us be There´s too much greed and bitterness So hopefully we will enjoy ourselves more Despite this season´s fall from grace, Next year, (if we are where we expect to be) And finish up in the promotion race. OTBC PS. We saw last night just how nerves can affect Even the very best at this game, So hopefully Sunderland may have a few Before they are safe in the frame.
Really entertaining RBF, although we're not mathematically down, I really can't see a miracle for us, but we've been there before and we can hopefully bounce straight back! OTBC
Dave, I´ll more than gladly take it all back if anything astonishing does happen on Wearside and last night does prove that you can´t count your chickens too soon, but.................
