    Can we just talk in poems from now on?

    Mary had a little lamb
    She kept it in a bucket
    And every time that lamb got loose
    The dog would try to fuck it.
    Was that Keats or Tennyson?
    Too good for those t***ers

    I'm anticipating some bad tempered, 'I opened this thread after seeing 50 unread posts only to find...' type comments.

    I opened this thread expecting,
    To see Roland Duchatelet leaving,
    But what I faced instead,
    Filled me with dread,
    50 new posts of rhyming!
    What is your day job?

    If and when the new owners take over I hope they keep Robinson on as I think he is doing a decent job and knows this division. If we get to the championship and they are ambitious then maybe change it up to get us to next level as I am not sure he has what it takes to get us there.

    Poetry's not your game son.

    I wondered lonely as a cloud
    That floats on high o'er charlton Valley,
    When all at once I saw a crowd,
    A host, of red and white Addick fans;
    Beside the pitch, beneath the stands,
    Jumping and supporting in the breeze.

    Continuous as the stars that shine
    And twinkle on the milky way,
    They stretched in never-ending line
    Along the margin of a pitch:
    Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
    Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

    The waves beside them danced; but they
    Out-did the sparkling sport in glee:
    A poet could not but be gay,
    In such a jocund company:
    I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
    What wealth the show to me had brought:

    For oft, when on my couch I lie
    In vacant or in pensive mood,
    They flash upon that inward eye
    Which is the bliss of solitude;
    And then my heart with pleasure fills,
    And dances with the Addick thrills.

    Roland stood upon a burning deck,
    His face was all but fluttered.
    Nevermind dear boy said a man at the back
    I am your prospective buyer.

    My name isn't Shiek nor Spiv nor Abdul,
    Nor one of the bods from they syrupy drink of red bull.
    I indeed drove a bus, it was red like most,
    I'm a Walrus not Rodney the one from the coast.

    Well Ebbsfleet is near and there's something to do
    whilst I waiting in the sidings with my choo choo ka choos.
    It's close, it's happening it's gif pleasing good
    It's not long now before that fucking arsehole sells up and fucks off away from our club.

    Roland Out!


    Now that was a collaborative effort by Keats and Tennyson, after a night out on the piss.
  • You lot will be pleased to hear that I'm going to sleep now.
    Duchatelet OUT!

    Surely the most appropriate poem for Roly is Pam Ayres' I Wish I'd Looked After Me Teeth.

    I really never expected to see my several times Great Aunt in Law (Felicity Hemans) parodied on Charlton Life.

    Life is so full of surprises.

    PS Wrong @catfordmorry... 'twas a woman what wrote it.

    Indeed !

    We're on the 10.30 out of Euston but may not be early enough for a drink before the match.

    However, we don't leave Blackburn until 19.32 so maybe we could meet up for one or three after the game ...
