Two Halves |
| Bellowing instructions from the touchline, that’s my dad |
| Purple in the face‚ getting really mad |
| Man on! |
| Man on! |
| An empty stadium yells «man on» |
| Come on! |
| Come on! |
| The cross goes sailing wildly over the heads of everyone |
| «Stop fannying around! |
| Keep it nice and simple!» |
| «You're not Lionel Messi‚ just pass the bloody ball!» |
| Man on! |
| Man on! |
| An empty stadium yells «man on» |
| Come on! |
| Come on! |
| The cross goes sailing wildly over the heads of everyone |
| Perhaps we were expecting this to be a walk in the park |
| But these bastards from King’s Priory |
| Are kicking lumps out of us |
| Man on! |
| Man on! |
| An empty stadium yells «man on» |
| Come on! |
| Come on! |
| The cross goes sailing wildly over the heads |
| Their left back slips taking a free kick |
| It trickles over the mud straight to me |
| In desperation he scrambles and slides |
| I leap his flailing leg and dink it |
| Over the sprawled body of the goalie |
| The net is gaping |
| The ball takes a bobble and I slice wide of the mark |
| Everything goes quiet |
| Staring into the red dark of my palms |
| They launch a long ball into our box |
| Suddenly we find ourselves with a corner to defend |
| I am on the near-post |
| Somehow it gets bundled underneath my feet |
| At the final whistle I am inconsolable |
| Man on! |
| Man on! |
| I reckon dad is really disappointed with me |
| Come on! |
| Come on! |
| He tries his best to not show how he really feels |
| In the car home‚ he says «dust yourself down |
| Move on to next week’s game |
| Shall we pick up a Chinese or would you rather fish and chips?» |
