More aimless ramblings, pay no attention, although some of these past and present City characters, are maybe not quite so recognisable. There once was a man from Calcutta Who´d invariably pull down the shutter, To keep all shots out From round and about That ambidextrous man from Calcutta There was a gent from Scandinavia Who some thought would be a real saviour, But alas, we saw All his caps galore Not help that gent from Scandinavia There once was a left-footed Dutchman Who became quite a firm Daryl Sutch fan, How the story goes No-one really knows Except maybe that ageing Dutchman There was a lad who was a Texan Who took quite a major deflection, Via Merseyside Which can´t be denied Somewhat disturbed that kindly Texan There once was a stopper from Norway Who could block anyone in the doorway, He was big and was blond All the lads they were fond Of that big-hearted stopper from Norway There once was a lad from the Transvaal Who often spent time in the chancel, Praying that one day Success would come his way Which paid off for that lad from the Transvaal There once was a man from Montreal Perhaps, one of the best of them all, A cowboy at heart Even with no head start He´d skin ´em before you could say Montreal There once was a man from Morocco Who enjoyed the French thriller `Barocco`, But he thrilled us more With one special score That versatile man from Morocco. rbf
Very bold of you Kris - Derveld no, although it could have been, you have to go a bit further back, about a decade in fact. Nedergaard no, he was Danish. Pattison no. Jackson no, he was born in Jamaica.
Fuglestad no, my nr 5 was unquestionably a CB, also was tentatively suggested as possible manager here at one time. Peschisolido no. need to go waaaaayyy back, back to the ´59 Cup run in fact.
