One more Canary now comes home to nest
As others have done before him,
This one well qualified to meet the test
And not the result of a whim
Some have been successful, others have not
But few have had the pedigree,
That ex-midfielder M. Phelan has got
I doubt many would disagree
And in the situation we now are
Two beginners losing some steam,
His knowledge and nous could help take us far
If they can all work as a team
Both as a player and team captain too
He led by example real well,
And if in his coaching that can shine through
He could bring them out of their shell
Well done to Adams, if Adams it was
Who put this name into the hat,
I never dared hope that he´d come, because
Us after Man U might feel flat
But one more homecoming won´t go amiss
Especially if things now improve,
There may be envious glances at this
That could become a brilliant move. OTBC
