Futbol Mid Week Fixture Flings
Waiting for bubbles
Here on the pitch
Hope there will be no trouble
From Liverpool being in a winning niche
Known for being paper back writers
And always having the attitude of being fighters
The Reds will have to deal Hammies who thing they are for real
With hard cover binding West Ham could do some grinding
With a point and a little more they want to be there if they get a score.
If the Reds win by two the Hammies will call it a night since they are through,
For the boys from the quarries they have no worries
They are well on their way to the championship if they do not slip
There is another show on this night that is chilly and cold
Man City leads from a previous match where they were ever so bold.
As time clicks by West Ham was giving it a nice try
Then a foul in the danger zone
And Liverpool could be giving a goal that has a subjective tone.
Over in the other neighborhood war there was an important score
When United had a strike that gave them a celebration mike
Against Man City and United wanted no pity
Forty-five minutes have past
And one wondered who was in control of these futbol masts
Will the Reds put the Hammies in more debt?
Being at home you would think the Hammies would have one
Before everything is said and done
Two goals in less than an hour was the mountain United had to climb
In half the time
But the Blues at home had their bags packed
With the Aston Villa being the next attack
It will be an EPL friendly contest
That in the end will anoint the best
But in the league’s featured spectacle
The Londoners were ready to start the heckle
When a calm cool collected Liverpool had a break away
And gave them something to say
It seems the bubble must come
Or when it’s done, the bubbles will not fly
And the stop by the sports book will only be to say goodbye
There was actually an opportunity to make the bubbles fly
But batted away by the keeper turned it into the crowd giving a frustrated cry.
A second later the ball hit the post
And it was almost time for Liverpool to coast
Xtra time was slated for three giving notice it was almost time to unleash all the match day tea
No bubbles tonight but there could be a different result on Saturday, right?
As the midweek comes to a close
And everybody knows
The matches return in not too many hours
After the European Union receive the rest in peace flowers
