Footballer Superstar

The money they get for a ball in the net more than you I bet Oh, to be a footballer Not ronaldo though, cheatin' faller maybe Peter Crouch, but much much taller Or Robin Van Persie whose now greedy, little sign of mercy wearin' a scummy red jersey an' scorin' goals from chelsea to mersey. I would be an honest player, of those there are few to name for you just a bad two look no further than terry or roo but, they can play like a beast when it's time to rise up like yeast let fever pitch be unleashed an' give us a thrillin' goal feast. Some get called a fox for their silky moves in the box deft turns an' little knocks I've lost so many socks! but I don't care I could breathe you like air with pride would I wear the shirt on my chest for luck kiss it's crest shout my team is best let's go beat all the rest!! ©John-Ovan.P.Hull

On the money here John ! Wayne Rooney gets around £12 million a year ! Ronaldo does donate large amounts of money to the Palestinian cause, and yes he can afford to. Sky are ploughing £8.2 billion into the Premier League over three years - I say plough it into projects that help people who are living in poverty ! Madness John. I do watch Liverpool occasionally from the comfort of my armchair, and I see the feminization of the sport; the colored boots, the different hair styles !

I've almost given up on it now John. Obscene amounts of money, and the players lose sight of reality. Man Utd player Depay owns a car which cost a quarter of a million pounds - Rolls Royce. Its a 24/7 panto ! LFC have an advert which shows three players promoting Nivea Cream ! Jesus H !!!
