Apologies to Lewis Carrol

Vital Football Legend
The Rapist and the Flytipper,
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of fans:
If they were only cleared away,'
They said, it would be grand!'




If seven managers starved of cash
Failed for seven years,
Do you suppose,' the Rapist said,
That they could get it clear?'
I doubt it,' said the Flytipper,
And shed a bitter tear.



They dreamed of redevelopment.
And fans abject defeat,
With Operation Conference well on track,
They failed to see the tweet
From Valerie the Belekon,
Who ate the oysters, every one.

Excellent :tup:

Here is my poor effort with apologies to the original by Felicia Heman, which I have not attempted to replicate in full.

Koko stood on the burning deck
Whence all but Prem had fled
The floodlight that lit the O's wreck
Shone around him o'er his mop like head

Yet arrogant and obstinate he stood
As born to rule the perfect storm
A creature behaving as cowardly as he could
In his infantile, vengeful form

The flames rolled on - he would not go
Without father O's word
That father, faint and senile in the stand below
His views no longer heard

He called aloud - 'say, father, say
If my Operation Conference task is done?'
He knew not that the chieftain lay
Unconscious of his son

There came a thunderous burst of legal sound
Oh boy, what could that be?
Twas VB all around
And the Os were left in fragments, all at sea!
