Sporting Moments # 2

CINDERELLA’S TEAM IS BOTTOM OF THE LEAGUE # 2

Cinderella’s team is bottom of the league
Though it’s no surprise at all
When the princess in waiting
Keeps running away from the ball

OUR TEAM CAPTAIN TOOK TO THE FIELD

Our team captain took to the field
Carrying a piece of rope and the ball
Unconventional you might think
But he is the skipper after all

TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS EMBLEM

Tottenham Hotspurs emblem
Is a cockerel that the fans don
And as the emblem is a bird
The supporters egg them on

THERE REALLY IS NO TRICK TO IT

There really is no trick to it
The easiest way with no catch
To light up a football stadium
Is with a football match

MANCHESTER UNITED’S UNDERGROUND HEATING

Manchester United’s underground
Heating hasn’t been restored
So they’re planning to rename
The stadium Cold Trafford

BOFFINS ARE NOT THE SPORTY TYPE

Boffins are not the sporty type
But even a physicist called Bryan
Knows that he must exercise
Which he does by pumping ion

AS A MULTI SPORTS CLUB GRASSHOPPER

As a multi sports club Grasshopper
Club Zürich are just the ticket
They play a large number of sports
Though funnily enough Not Cricket

AT THIS YEAR’S INSECT SUPER BOWL

At this year’s insect Super Bowl
The quarterback played dismally
Rimsky-Korsakov dropped the ball
It was the plight of the fumble Bee

I LOVE IT WHEN WE BEAT THE AUSSIES

I love it when we beat the Aussies
It’s a bit of a passion of mine
Because they are such bad losers
I’m way up on cloud nine
I like to ask them, “Would you like
Some cheese with that whine?”

A YOUNG WOMAN GOLFER

A young woman golfer had just started
Her round, when she was stung by a Bee,
It was so painful she abandoned the game
And returned to the clubhouse for sympathy

Her golf pro saw her as she returned
And wondered why she was back so early
So he went to ask her what was wrong
And she told him “'I was stung by a Bee”

“Oh dear, that’s awful” he said “Where?”
He was sympathetic right from the start
“Between the first and second hole”
She replied wincing at the stings smart.
He nodded knowingly and said
“Then your feet were too far apart”

BRAZIL

The Brazil of old
Used to be a team of flow
A samba side with flare
Pass and move, give and go

The modern Brazil
Though, are a team of guile
Deceit and cunning
Replacing the cavalier style

The Twenty fourteen Brazil
Are a team of moments
But if they fail in them
They fail in tournament’s
