    There once was a fella, half deaf
    Who dreamed of becoming a chef,
    But music became
    His pathway to fame
    His pseudonym was ´rbf´

    And every year around this time
    It´s his job to find the best rhyme,
    From many sent in
    Here, hoping to win
    The accolade `Rhyme That Was Prime´

    And this year it´s been a tough task
    To choose the three that soon will bask,
    In match day glory
    Entirely for free
    For more than that, I couldn´t ask

    In third place this one made me smile
    From ´over there´ from wi-exile,
    Maybe far away
    But with them each day
    In heart and spirit, every mile

    In second came the man from Kent
    A Wolfswinkel fan is this gent,
    Or so I would own
    And he´s not alone
    Ricky I´m sure is heaven-sent

    But this year on top of the tree
    It had to be robbieBB,
    Who with guile and wit
    Made everything fit
    One with which most can all agree.

    Here are the three, in all their glory, and well done to the chosen.

    1. robbieBB

    There´s a lot to be said for stability
    Showing strength instead of fragility,
    Keep faith in your man
    Adhere to your plan
    While others display vunerability.

    2. Kent canary

    There is a man called van Wolfswinkel
    Whose eyes have a lupine van Wolfstwinkle,
    His movement is fine
    And if we give him time
    He´ll score more than a meagre van Wolfssprinkle.

    3. wi-exile

    I have a good friend who just bellows
    He shouts all his good-byes and hello´s,
    His voice is so loud
    But he is obviously proud
    When he lets out with ´Come on you Yellows`.

    I´m just sorry I have to cut it down to three every year, as there were several more that would have graced the match day programme, so many, many thanks to you all for contributing.

    Yours, rbf

    It is, can I say, rather pleasing
    To succeed in a Challenge so teasing
    Well done! to the lot
    Who gave it a shot
    And RBF for his effort unceasing.

    In this game with the written word
    I was happy to have been placed third
    Just trying to bring cheer
    At this time of the year
    To fans of the yellow feathered bird.
