He is such a joyful winner but he does not like to lose <br />His favourite team won at the weekend so he went on the booze <br />He could not go to work today he feels fuzzy in the head <br />And nursing his hangover he lay at home in bed. <br /> <br />A football mad young person he surely loves the game <br />To be the Club's best barracker is his great claim to fame <br />At every goal his team kicks he whoops aloud in joy <br />The man in his late twenties at heart remains a boy. <br /> <br />His beanie in his Club Football colours to bed he even wear <br />His Club as important to him as his wife and children his type no longer rare <br />In the pub with his drinking mates their main topic is football <br />The great players and the winners and the losers of the weekend games they recall. <br /> <br />His team won at the weekend but he is in bed today <br />For too much celebrating his price he has to pay <br />He proudly wears the Club colours of his favourite football team <br />And every victory that they have good for his self esteem.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/he-is-such-a-joyful-winner/
