The Busby Babes were sublime
The best by far in
their time
And when eight of
their number
Went to their eternal
slumber
They went straight to
heaven
To join St Peters
first XI

THE BUSBY BABES REPLAYED
THE SURVING BABES OF MUNICH
Morgans and Blanchflower
Never played again
Some played to soon
Some could never play
the same
Some were cast aside
Some fullfilled there
destiny
But none were
unscathed
After the tradgedy
Those who remained
Of the team Busby
built
All survived the
horror
But lived with the
guilt

I WAS JUST SITTING IN THE STAND
I was just sitting in the stand
And wondered why
absentmindedly
The football was
getting bigger
And bigger and then it
hit me
WHEN I GO AND PLAY GOLF
When I go and play Golf, there
Is something I’ve always done
I take a second pair of Trousers
Just in case I get a hole in one
WHY CAN'T ORPHANS PLAY BASEBALL?
Why can't orphans play baseball?
At the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome?
Well they say it’s nothing personal
It’s just that they can't find home
IT WAS DURING A CHESS GAME
It was during a Chess game
That I remember him saying
“Let’s make this more interesting”
So we agreed to stop playing
BATSMEN WEAR A PROTECTIVE BOX
Batsmen wear a protective box
In order to ensure
That the bowler cannot
Rearrange his furniture
THE FIRST TESTICULAR PROTECTION
The first testicular protection
Known as a "box" was introduced
In 1874
Whereas the first cranial protection
Known as a “helmet” was introduced
In 1974
So it only took a hundred years
For Cricketers to figure out the score
That balls shouldn’t be more
Important than brains anymore
COACH JOSÉ MOURINHO
Coach José Mourinho
Likes to strut and preen
But doesn’t like to lose
And likes to cause a scene
He’s always crying foul
As he’s a real drama queen
AT THIS YEAR’S INSECT SUPER BOWL
At this year’s insect Super Bowl
The quarterback played
dismally
Rimsky-Korsakov dropped the ball
It was the plight of the fumble Bee
AS A MULTI SPORTS CLUB GRASSHOPPER
As a multi sports club Grasshopper
Club Zürich are just the ticket
They play a large number of sports
Though funnily enough Not Cricket
