Taken off FB…


1 twas the night before Rotherham while all through the house

someone was shouting and swearing in scouse

the players were shaking well who could this be

when in steps the manager mister rooney


2 'erm hello you's lot its me I'm the boss''

and with that the sound of the forthcoming dross

'lets play no fear football pass out from the back''

and'' improve all your fitness cause there's no room for slack''


3 the players all listened to the words that were spoke

''play out from the back is he having a joke

best to ignore him and play our own way

he'll be gone before chistmas if we try what he says''


4 then up got the gaffer and puffed out his chest

'just do what I tell you no need for unrest''

and with that he pulled down his cap and his snood

and went to the canteen to get some more food


5 well s 2 hours late he returned to the squad

'erm lets do some running or at least try a jog.''

his stomach was churning was it nerves or just fright

or was it the third plate of angel delight


6 '' now ruddy now JJ and sanderson to

come jukey and beilik and also aiwu

you all know the tactic-yes even you burke

lets go on the pitch now and see if they work''


7 and then in a twinkling I heard from the stands

tom brady' is here and the fans clapped their hands

'lets play some soccer lets show them what for''

but the match ended sadly in a no scoring draw


8 'erm I think we played well for the first part erm erm'

And with that the new board all started to squirm

'no really belive me we're on the right path

and with that the players all started to laugh



9 so laying his finger aside of his nose

and giving a nod from the dug out he rose

I heard him exclaim as he walked out the ground

''I'm out of here coleen I'm not hanging around''



10 and with that the chubby man climbed in his car

and waved to the fans with an ''erm '' and a'' la''

and his words rang out loud as he drove out of sight

Im off to DC - so to all a good night

If only

Some wont like it i thought it was funny

that's actually really good 👍 reads very in tune with the original

Very good

You wouldn't eat angel delight off a plate, otherwise excellent stuff.

The Christmas poem I didnt want to see, but appreciate.

Oh how I wished it was different!

Christmas is the time for miracles.

Will it be the players or Rooney that will be visited by the 3 ghosts of Football past, present and future?

David Gold in a chopper. Lee Clark bobbing down the river in a Newcy Brown bottle boat and Louie Sibley with a Ballon D’or

Very good!
