How Is It Goal In
Liverpool showed very early they have a goal
How very cold?
But the Londoners got off the couch
And stood tall without a slouch
They scored one really quick
Giving the clock not much time to tick
As the first half minutes showed they were up for this incredible task
This West Ham physical challenge could make their owners go to the flask
Tied at the break
Bubbles back home wondered what it would take
Ten minutes into the second forty-five
I tell you no lie
Hammies had a strike
And winning points were in sight.
As the champion elect
Go on an offensive peck
Telling those at Anfield they are not done
Shrugging off the thought the Londoners have won
As for those named red
It must be said
They were able to get it leveled at two
And West Ham needed to stay cool
Another Liverpool score would hand the Hammies a loss
That in turn could create a meeting with the relegation boss
Reality started to settle in
And for the Hammies another sports book win
It was two that Liverpool were giving
With the sports book hinting ‘Hammies, where are you making a living?’
There was a video review
That said a Liverpool goal was not true
With this decision
Hammies collecting the sports book cash seemed to be the mission
When the match came to the end
Liverpool had to work to defend
A nice assault
That did not come up with a goal that was sought
Start preparing for the drop
Since the losing will not stop
Down here in the lower three
There is a positive that one could see
In the other division where EPL teams go when they are missing
And the fans will make sure you hear the hissing
You will be king
Counting the winnings if that is the thing
Since this predicament is months off
And West Ham needs to take care of this evil wintry cough
Then in the spring do the rising
Now that you have William Hill money to do some hiring
