Title: Ode to a Swindon Town supporter Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, December 16, 2005, 13:09:03 Just found this framed ode that my uncle gave me ages ago. Anyone else have this?
Oh there's a place, a barren place Where you love to hang around Since your the one, the only one That lurks at Swindon's ground Well OK, that isn't right Thats why we ought to tell That there is another soul That suffers there as well! So the two of you have such great taste Since you support the best As you cheer on those "Robins" Playing in their little nest! Because they certainly are a mega(?!?) side And they have some fame They've occasionally played some football And even won some games! Like in the year of '25 They were brilliant then Thrashing poor old Farnham By a massive ten! And when they won the league cuo They knew just what to do And they were a top-class side Winning the Anglo-Italian too! But in the year of 1930 It was such a pity They were bashed, really thrashed By old Manchester City! And they've oodles of fine players too That have made the grade Remember Mr Trollope 770 times he played! And now with their current side What is there to say They probably aren't amazing But they'll do anyway! With their wondrous manager He's got tactics that confuse They don't always work as planned But they do amuse! So hopefully in the future They'll really, really try And you'll be happy once again No more you'll have to cry! They will win promotion They will be in great demand When they show they certainly are The bestest in the land! But if that doesn't happen yet You'll just have to cope And keep all of your doings crossed And never give up hope!
