Considering just who it was
Who came our way yesterday noon,
I´m still boggling, and that´s because
We were close to being over the moon,
So close in fact, that when they scored
The winner, with no time to go,
On their bench, in total accord
Relief was the one thing on show,
And sometimes it´s not points alone
That prove which team´s won on the day,
Yesterday we could all trundle home
With a feeling of pride from the fray,
From Ruddy J. right through the team
They showed just how far they have come,
And had de Gea been in one of his dreams
Then this one we might just have won,
From the ageless Drury at the back
To Captain Courageous who leads,
His troops bravely into attack
We can expect many more fine deeds,
And although mathematically, yes
There´s a way to go before we´re there,
I think I´d wager nonetheless
We´ll be playing here again next year,
And I know that may be tempting fate
Especially in Lambert P´s eyes,
But we´ll hopefully not have long to wait
Before we can confirm the prize,
For we´ll actually play a lot worse
Than that, and more than likely win,
So forget about ordering the hearse
I don´t think our demise will begin,
Just yet, and with players to see
Like Howson and young Bennett R,
Before this season closes, we
Have potential to still push on far. OTBC
