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!

we've been to Aberdeen, we hate the Hibs, they make us spew up, so make some noise,
the gorgie boys, for Hearts in Europe.
