Great Stuff

[royalbarclayfan]

I must admit it gave a shock
When not one, but both centre-backs,
Went off after taking a knock
I expected to see a few cracks

But not a bit of it, I´d say
With Martin and Naughton in there,
We continued to look, on the day
In control with not much to fear

But the goals we´d threatened so long
Seemed like they might never arrive,
The chances we did have went wrong
But that didn´t dampen our drive

And sure enough, eventually
Surman A. cracked a beauty in,
And Pilkington then joined the spree
To ensure a comfortable win

Which was good over Bolton who´ve been
Improved lately, and not undone,
That often, so well done the team
And to Martin R. with his ton

And on any other good day
We might have scored four, five or six,
But these points we deserved for our play
Which keep us still well in the mix

So that is double number two
And still not through February yet,
Great stuff by Lambert and the crew
Especially after a night to forget. OTBC

Enjoy your week all,

Yours,

Hi RBF! What Maestro said! No surprise there, you're always on the money, and I think we agreed on another thread, that PL and the boys would deliver!

We did dave, but they certainly were determined to turn up today, and what a revelation Bennett E. was at RB, at least we have now got some qualified cover at CB if PL thinks we need to use it.

Great performance, great win, I had the misfortune to have to watch Stoke v Sunderland in appalling conditions, and the game lived up to the conditions, I´m afraid.

Hi RBF bor, three good points from a team below us. Hope our two central defenders can be patched up in time for the Swansea game; although we are well served in that department.

Can you get that magical power of verse to get our players fit. LOL.

NORKIE, I´ll do my best
But Swansea will be quite a test,
A good game to view
Most likely, from two
Upstarts who´re surprising the rest.
