One year ago this weekend
We were heading to Barnsley to play,
Having just drawn with Donny at home
In a uninspiring one v one fray,
Which left us sitting in fifth place
With thirteen games still left to go,
One place and one point just behind
Those from Forest, who´ve since hit a low,
And Blackpool interestingly enough
Were lying twelfth in the PL,
After just beating Tottenham 3-1
Before they hit their own bad spell,
They would win only just one more game
Between then and the season´s end,
Dropping like a proverbial stone
They just couldn´t repair the trend,
Now what, might you ask, does this show
Only that a year is a long time,
And while some speed upwards in haste
Others drop quickly, losing their shine,
No comparison intended at all
Between those seasiders and us,
I assure you, but maybe we should
Wait awhile until the final dust,
Has settled on this year´s campaign
Before just assuming the best,
And we know our status is safe
Then and only then, can we rest,
And far be it for me to say
What goes on in Lambert P´s mind,
But I´d be surprised had he not thought
Of all the scenarios he could find,
Between now and this May thirteen
When all will be much more revealed,
And fingers crossed, we´ll celebrate
Our Premier League place being sealed. OTBC
