Losing Again
They've sacked their hapless manager
and replaced him with a youthful figurine
They still need a steeley manager
who could cut ice with a glance
They lost 6 ~1
against a swerving juggernaut
And I saw something
I wouldn't again
A Back Four fit for the slaughter
and a strike force incapable
of scoring more than once
And what happened to the midfield
over burdened and over run
with a proverbial stogie in their mouth
They puffed away so mercilessly
I do believe they were shell shocked
like a sudden squall on the beach
