Poetic football

Filed under: diary,poems — Trefor Davies @ 8:26 am

Poetic football played today

Man Utd v Man City
Barnsley v Blackpool
Luton v Lincoln
Peterborough v Plymouth 
Swindon v Salford 
Braintree v Borehamwood 
Truro v Tamworth 
Wealdstone v Woking 

There are others but none that hold any real interest. It could have been even better had Burnley been playing Brentford, Chelsea v Crystal Palace and Liverpool versus Leeds. Sunderland v Spurs and Forest v Fulham requires poetic license.

Arsenal could have played Aston Villa and West Ham v Wolves. Also Newcastle could play Notts Forest were it not for the fact that the latter is already playing Fulham. Everton will have to wait for a cup match to play Exeter but it is doable albeit unlikely.

I leave the lower leagues to the reader to compile their own poetic fixtures. If I did it all for you it would take the fun out of the game.
