This is one from my old site, that I wasn't going to republish here. In view of the latest round of Muslims shouting about being victimised whilst attempting to victimise, and also the disgusting treatment of schoolchildren Rhys Morgan and Jessica Ahlquist, I decided to repost it. On re-reading it looks like rather bad poetry, I know, but the repeated refrain was used for emphasis purposes, not as an intentional poetical device. I also thought of adding more lines, but nah; I'll let it stand as-is.
It's originally dated July 2010.

Not really surprised no-one was listening, I reckon they’ll be relegated this year.
And so it came to pass that The Wolves did find themselves in the wilderness.
Relegated. I bloody knew it.

I’d take the piss, but I know sod all about footy. I like your memory for trivial old comments though. I thought I was the only one who did that.
