The English teams are doing well this year
In Europe: there’s Liverpool and Chelsea,
Arsenal too, Man U of course, but where
Are the English players, and who are the
Managers? (Not forgetting overseas
Owners.) I’m afraid that, like Wimbledon,
It’s clear that our sportsmen lack quality,
And so, like plumbers, we import a ton
Of foreign talent with the discipline
And skill to make up for our lack of flair.
Oh well, at least as sports fans it seems we
Are still passionate; appreciation
Is shown for excellence. We are quite fair-
Minded. But then it seems we have to be.
