This is the football Season it is that time of year <br />When men in the pub talk football as they enjoy their beer <br />And look forward to September when one club will fly the winner's flag <br />The team that wins the Premiership gives their fans the right to brag. <br /> <br />Their wives nicknamed the footy widows their husbands at the football club <br />Or after work talking football with their mates down at the local pub <br />They take football so seriously 'tis their passion in life <br />The footy fan loves his football club as much as his children or his wife. <br /> <br />And if their team lose at the weekend they feel and look so sad <br />What's known as football addiction they seem to have it bad <br />They feel sad for their football team and the chance of four premiership points gone <br />But they cheer up and look forward to next weekend's game as the working week wears on. <br /> <br />This is the football Season football has gone to their head <br />And their football scarves and beanies they even wear to bed <br />About their team they feel so passionate as if to them it did belong <br />And 'tis with delight and pride in victory that they sing the club song.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-is-the-football-season/
