Premium Member My Homie And Me

I grew up living in the countryside
an only child, adopted and on my own
it's something I've never regretted at all
looking back now like a river with one stone

I found I could cope with myself
having a stammer people was not my thing
so I found ways to spend my time
a lover of football it became my wedding ring

Across from our backyard was a field
'The Honie' was its name, there I did play
on my own, a football and me my all
many an hour spent no matter wet or grey

The grass never got cut but I kept it down
with my ball, me and team imagination
doing everything a team does as one
win and lose but never got relegation

I did love 'My Homie'
a place to spend many an hour
so many memories to call upon
drawing them from above like a shower

(This is written about my favourite place in my childhood and the memories it has for me.
Football - means soccer as we play it in the UK.)

Premium Member Table Turning Relegation Tease

There was a buzz in the air 
About Astin’s upcoming weekend affair 
A Friday night match 
Where Astin was such a catch 
Lured in with bait 
Wolves prowling looking great 
But alas a mistake 
A correction needed to make 
Someone wanted cake 
Decided to change plans to an afternoon luncheon 
Wolves and Astin hiring catering for the munch on 
Bags were packed at the Canary’s pad 
Waiting for a downtown cab 
Going to a positive place 
Maybe a championship to build a successful case 
When it heard 
From a news worthy credible bird 
Hornets did not distance themselves from the demotion third 
Apparently a few glasses of Claret wine 
Relaxed the stingers at the time 
When the clock struck seventy three 
Hornets grabbed the honey for a spot of tea 
In the ball it went 
After the purple and red posted it sent
One to nothing 
Shutting them out which was something 
Leaving the relegation decision tight 
Making the next footbally month a competitive fight 
Right?

Premium Member Thoughts At the Relegation Table

Citizens were upset 
With the Honey Hornets set 
They played dance songs 
But it was all wrong 
Records being abused 
Scratching them when used 
Stingers created a vibe 
That said let the music die 
Before the first forty five ended 
Twilight Zone Rod should be commended 
Two for Stirling 
Hometown hive was swirling 
Only to see another pair go by 
Relegation staring bees straight in the eye 
Four score 
Sky Blue headed for the door 
“Nice seeing you here 
Will be playing for champions league cheer 
In the coming year 
Tabloid stuff did not work 
Honesty was how we popped the cork”
Later in the day Gunners held fire 
While Aston’s Villa was put on the tight wire 
If this was the end to the show 
Arsenal would let them know 
First half saw one in 
Enough for a claret blue army crucial win 
This allowed a table jump 
To safety over buzzing hump 
No need reporting anything new 
Except the canary could be dining on honey dipping stew 
In the dungeon 
Doing some number crunching 
Asking themselves why did we go to that high profile luncheon 
Where we did all the munching

Premium Member Broken Heart Lane

As the gossiping canary sat on the wharf 
Watching the west ham going forth 
“Off to mingle” 
Thackray said who was single 
“With the white lilies”
Forgetting about the wolves who were very chilly 
No goals on the board 
Points being ignored 
Entering into the lovely garden 
Thackray wondered 
Was this a survival test? 
After a long rest
Knowing her recording record was not the best 
Looking around Thackray saw the black and white message 
Feeding the buzz honey mustard dressing 
No middle ground to blur 
Only the relegation zone pot to stir 
What was starting?
Luring apples needing to be carting? 
There was a cherry in Aston’s Villa looking to be on top 
A sweet surprise inside the Championship League ice cream shoppe  
Already finding a flat down stairs 
Investigating canary wanting to know if the west ham was in an affair 
When Thackray engaged with the beautiful buds 
Enjoying the scent dreaming for a stud 
Seeing one in a spot 
A place where the defense could put an end to the shot 
But somehow there was a miss
And an own goal occurred without an assist 
“I did this all alone
It was me on the phone “ 
Thackray would gingerly groan 
Minutes later a man appeared 
From the darkness the west ham was in fear 
His name 
Was Kane 
And he ended the west ham visit 
Right in the net he really kissed it 
Returning to make a plan 
In the dungeon the canary laughed like a spur fan 
“I will make a note
Bachelor Jason was Thackray’s vote
They were secretly wed,” 
Corresponding canary said 
Walking down broken heart lane 
Thackray realized she was turning insane 
Due to the obsession fame 
Until she picked up the mail 
While scratching off a lottery ticket that failed 
Opening to read the newspaper’s tales 
She exclaimed, “That canary is going to get nailed!”

Premium Member Chelsea's Winning Goal

Staring out at the bridge 
Empty was his fridge 
In a United Kingdom dungeon 
World crumbling 
Canary needed attention 
Wondering about pension
Off to Stamford he went 
Figuring out how to pay the rent 
When he arrived Chelsea honestly tried 
And before the brake 
A goal they did make 
Leaving Canary with nothing 
Except relegation while huffing 
Then puffing 
Keeping it close 
Canaries did not roast 
Dreaming a shot went through 
Everything would be level between the two 
It did not happen 
And Canary returned home flapping 
Pensioners gave the song birds a chance 
To perform a shirtless dance 
Leaving them with a thought 
After they fought 
Saying, “We are back on top 
Not ready to stop 
Winners of the lower division 
More mature then those having high profile missions” 
Next time when things are down and out 
Remember this lesson to think about 
Do something with that pension check 
And tomorrow there could be successful respect

Premium Member 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

Premium Member Relegating the Naming Rights

Looking for a new name 
Thackray was playing the game 
Ready to survive 
Being alive 
In the high profile section 
Worthy to have fame protection 
To stay there another year 
A point needed to stay clear 
Out of relegation hanging with the right dear 
Off to see Old Trafford 
Information to be gathered 
A magical cure 
From the Man U store 
Getting a prescription 
Removing all restriction 
Companion Antonio led the march 
Chivalry suddenly felt a little parch 
“Get a drink!” 
Thackray made Antonio think 
Taking a hydration break 
Strategy Antonio was able to make 
Once in the enemies box 
Like a fox 
A penalty called 
Something done against the law 
Score was converted 
Three points fantasy flirted 
This ended in the second half 
Red Devils came back in a wrath 
Greenwood’s foot showed the path
A one- one draw 
Making the Hammers stand tall 
Thackray the West Ham 
Was no longer in the jam 
Finished United that was the plan 
Did she end up in wedding bliss? 
Dropping the title Miss 
Antonio the boy toy 
Knows she would enjoy 
This romantic union 
Special agent’s doing 
If she met a guy 
Character description ‘a spy 
Fighting freedom giving a good try’
This could come together 
Reading the loveliest letter 
Relaxing in the sun 
Having fun 
Knowing she had won 
Ship pulling into port 
Capturing her fort 
Leading to travel 
Where emotions unravel 
Making a decision
Accepting the mission 
Honeymoon in Paris 
Using a passport reading Mrs. Harris

Premium Member The Relegation Review

Something happened that shook the ground 
The Hammies were victory bound 
Two goals up late in the game 
They thought the words of relegation would be tamed 
Suddenly, the seagulls started to pest 
Not allowing the Hammies a rest 
Finding the net, a goal closer the Seagulls did get 
Only a few minutes later a bright move was made not using a hand 
And the incident put more leverage into the relegation plan 
This review situation scene made West Ham yell and scream 
What is this said the marooned fan another video replay scam? 
All level and if this keep up the Londoners will spend a year with the British futbol devil 
Relegation haunts those who play at the Olympic home and this situation is like being biblically stoned 
On the bright side 
And this is no lie 
A whole new league could invade, and they could have much EPL information to trade 
Also, if West Ham makes the drop 
The losing may stop 
Leaving West Ham England Champion on top

Football Manager

I could build a football team for the future,
I've played Football Manager on my computer,
I've built teams that are simply spectacular,
with lots of silverware I've managed to capture.

I started off as manager of Bath City,
and Bath City played with a pity!
but a pit was around them so I chose to believe,
and that pity team did win that pit league.

I then took Barnet from non-league to the championship,
I won leagues, cups and awards on that 10 year trip,
bottom of the Conference when I took the healm of that ship,
but then I quit Barnet because Barnet lack grip.

I went to Ashton Gate because Lampard had just quit,
they were in League One and at the bottom of it,
the same league that I had just won when I was with Barnet,
who had unveiled a statute of me a week before I quit.

I couldn't sign players because of a transfer embargo,
which annoyed me because they were garbage you know,
was told 10 points from 5 games or you have to go,
won 4 drew 1 and from the relegation zone we rose.

The following season got promotion against the odds,
this really did prove that I was one of the Gods!
Won League 1 manager award for the 2nd time in 3 seasons,
but then it all went wrong for the following reasons,

it was my laptop, it could no longer be used,
I'd bought the wrong lead and the flippin' thing fused!

Premium Member A Sporting Poetic Exhibition

Today West Ham Went Berserk 
And Bournemouth Lost Its Shirt 
No Need for A Cover 
Since Jason Was Sent Home to His Mother 

So Far, Its Four 
That the Hammies Have Scored 
This Will Put A Little Space 
In the Stay Out of Relegation Race 

A New Coach Is Here In Spirit 
And The Supporters Let Them Hear It 
Hopefully He Knows How To Steer 
As Everyone Cheers 

But Honestly What Will West Ham Do 
With This Athletic Job That Was Real Cool 
An Olympic Year Is Hear, What Could Be the Fear
Must It Be Chatter About Building Costs That Matter 

With the Stadium Finished in Japan 
West Ham May Want to Make Good with Its Fan 
Money and Goals Are Hard to Come
And We Enjoy These Two Things Since They Are Fun 

So, Keep It Going My Dear Hammies 
And Next Time Lets Do Another Slammy 
For the Enjoyment of The Fannies
