Just When You Think...

[royalbarclayfan]

Just when you think a good cup run
Is on the cards, that´s how it goes,
Here today we were just undone
By a Leicester side right on their toes

But fair to say our recent league heights
We never seemed likely to scale,
Once Moro, with the goal in his sights
In our first attack could only fail

We never got passíng as we can
And seemed lacking in ideas too,
And misunderstandings, man to man
Did not help us try to break through

And after last week´s dazzling showdown
This was a disappointing day,
But I suppose should we hit low downs
Then the cup´s where we want them to stay

So endeth our cup run for this year
With more of a whimper, sadly,
But we deserved not that much here
Thankfully it´s not our priority

And next week it´s home to United
Where even one point would erase,
The memories of a cup day blighted
Such is football´s wondrous ways. OTBC

Have a good week all,

Yours,

Hi RBF! Very disappointed, not just at the loss, but the manner of it! Nearly all of our stalwarts failed to turn up for today's game!

As I said on the match thread, if we are going to have a poor game, much better to be a cup match rather than the league! Onwards and upwards

Watched it on the box dave, hoping to see a cracker, and ended up with a damp squib, I´m afraid.
