WIDER GOALS

Listen to poem:

Widen Goals For More Goals

Soccer football is a great game
But the scoring is tame and lame
Too much left to chance, a low-goal-count shame.
So what can be done to reclaim its fame?
Make the goal posts wider to more goals claim
Add a yard to the goal width, to make a 9 yard wide frame.

The World Game would be less defensive
Players could shoot from further out
All those near misses to the side would go in!
More goals would make the game fairer in outcome
The fans would love it
More goals for fans to see
A great game, the world game, made better
You'll see.
