  • Merry Christmas ya filthy animals.
  • Merry Christmas all
  • Happy Christmas to one and all especially those who have had a tough year with illnesses. Hoping a Christmas ‘miracle’ will happen at the Valley to cheer us all up  :)

    Fairytale of Floyd Road

    It was Christmas Eve babe,
    In the North Stand.
    My old man said to me:
    "Won't see another win."
    And then he sang a song,
    The Addams Family one!
    I turned my face away
    And dreamed of Wembley.

    Another owner's gone,
    Taken that bloody song.
    I got a feeling
    This year's for me and you
    So Happy Christmas!
    I love you Lifers,
    I can see a better time 
    When all our dreams come true.

    We've good beer in the bar
    And we've got Valley Gold,
    But we've got a defence
    That is peppered with holes.
    When you first brought me here 
    On a cold Tuesday eve
    You promised we'd get to the Premier League.

    What a game!
    Did a golfie!
    Even Brownie weren't sulky,
    Miles Leaburn was playing,
    We felt we could score.
    Corey Blackett on fire
    (Though the ref was still dire),
    We scored from a corner
    And danced through the night.

    The boys of the Valley faithful choir were seeing us
    Win away
    And the crowd were singing out for Alfie May!

    You can't play!
    You've no pace! 
    You complete waste of space!
    You're a terrible team and your boss is a meme.
    Your midfield is stale,
    Lost at home to Port Vale! 
    Merry Christmas indeed
    As we're stuck in this league

    The boys of the Valley faithful choir were seeing us
    Win away
    And the crowd were singing out for Alfie May!

    We could've been someone
    Supported anyone
    Not had to base our dreams 
    On injured cast-offs
    But now it's Christmastime 
    Your dreams still match my own
    We'll get some decent loans
    And scrape into the play-offs

    The boys of the Valley faithful choir still seeing us
    Win away
    And the crowd was singing out for Alfie May!

    RIP Shane.
    Merry Christmas all. 
    Talent! you cracked it
  • Wishing everyone the best for the festive season and new year. I'm one of those for whom this is a shit time of year, but have to say that version of the greatest Christmas song ever really made me smile @Jonniesta. Remembering (among others) Shane and Kirsty. Truly two of the best. Cheers, Keith 
  • Merry Christmas all!
  • Merry Christmas everybody. I hope you're all having a good day, and that the presents you got were what you wanted and those you gave were well received.

    Happy Christmas to Lifers, who suffer together 
    By watching our heroes as they fail to chase leather 
    We all want promotion, to reward our endeavor
    But we're stuck in League One for what seems like forever 

    We've craved - for some years - a generous buyer 
    To replace the old Belgian and the Night-meire, his liar 
    Along came Matt Southall, reality denier 
    But we stuck to our job: the Covered End choir 

    Happy Christmas to predictors of each week's league fixtures 
    To the Lifers who post their spectacular pictures 
    To the boozers whose tipples are outrageous mixtures 
    And to those who have comments on UEFA's strictures 

    Happy Christmas to those for whom there's one Summer sport 
    To those who've shown help, good wishes and support 
    ...when Lifers need aid or advice or face court 
    And to everyone contributing to each post-match report 

    Happy Christmas to Statbank and the scorers of Apple 
    ...whose marks make the page look like a dalmation dapple 
    To Lancs Lad who's had to numerically grapple 
    With numbers for players since the days of Phil Chapple 

    To the TV suggestions, set out by our Beds 
    To the terrible jokes which deserve their own threads 
    To the Lifers who share their festive grub spreads 
    And even to those who fetishise sheds   

    The new year's upon us and change is in place 
    There's talk of promotion - although not with straight face 
    But we're solvent.  And happy.  And still in the race
    So now, like the Valley, CL's a great place. 

    Merry Christmas everyone.  And a spectacularly happy new year. 

    Says it all.  Great poem Chizz.  Our poet laureate.
