Top scorers with 12 points each Dier Hard, Allledleykingsmen, Spurf, Patsbighands. Billy The Yid retains first place with a slightly reduced lead of 9 points. Still plenty of points available for the chasing pack. 5 failed to predict, no doubt caught out by the short time between games after waiting 3 months for the United game. Now we wait 9 days for our next game in this weird season..

Moving into the next hectic phase of matches, we meet a Sheffield Utd team in decline after a stunning first three-quarters of the season. We’ve overtaken them in the league. Let’s hope we can now show why. Bonnie will help us believe we can. Such a long break! It’s been such a long break! Hoping it’s not too late, Hope we turn it round! It's a key game, Yet another key game - Watch our reborn H Kane Bring United down! Such a long break! Lockdown and a long break! Make those Sheffield legs shake, When we turn it round! When young Bergwijn puts one there, It ain’t easy scoring number two; But when we have Harry Kane He’s gonna do what a Kane gotta do! Such a long break! etc Hoping etc It's a key game, etc When young Bergwijn puts one there, etc Oh, such a long break! etc Hoping etc It's a key game, etc, etc Prediction: Sheffield UInited 1 Spurs 2 Scorers: Bergwijn, Kane Cheers, Spurf!
Superb as usual! The only downside is that I don't like the original song. It shouldn't matter but I enjoy your work so much more when it's adapting a song I like. However cannot deny the cleverness of the reworking. Possibly could have incorporated the original "It's a fools game, standing in the cold rain" - I think we've all been there.
Indeed we have! 07 February 1973. FA Cup replay vs Derby. Winning 3-1. Lost 5-3. Hat-trick for Roger Davies. I was not under cover. I was gutted that night. Long lonely walk after the game. No umbrella. Thanks for the kind comments, anyway!
