Passing The Time

What are we doing while our football rests
Partying perhaps, with several guests ,
Personally I find this time a real bore
But you´ll not find me out on the floor,
Much as I might want to, my ageing knees
Won´t allow for such gay frivolities ,
Walking the hound keeps me both fit and well
And his company casts a soothing spell,
As now, a job I don´t have to go to
Our constitutionals just have to do,
But when the weather is inclement here
To indoor activities we repair ,
Designing golf courses when our walk´s done
Then playing them afterwards is good fun,
Not in the flesh anymore I´m afraid
Though in my youth ´twas a game that I played,
But on a pc game entitled ´Links´
Where there can still be plenty of high jinks ,
Reading and writing then writing some more
Verses on football things, both good and poor,
Is such an integral part of my day
Which, when it´s missing, turns blue skies to grey,
And Internationals, although still the game
Just never have so inspired me the same,
So this interminable ´break for rain´
Cannot end soon enough, to ease the pain ,
And yes, I know, there´s one more yet to come
But after that, we´ll all have a clear run ,
And the fact that the next two that we meet
Are two of those that I´d most like to beat ,
Doesn´t help all the waiting move along
But very soon it´ll be, ´bring ´em on´ . OTBC

 

England are playing tonight if you are bored.

 

That's unlikely to help!

 

I went to Paddy power to put £5 on Welbeck to get 3 goals against S Marino and was offered 6/1 wtf?

 

I´m afraid if I was so, 23, that would probably make me even more so

 

You should have gone to Danny Power and put a bet on Paddy Welbeck scoring a hat-trick, I reckon the odds would have been far better.
