G. Rex waxes poetic about the Ginger haired Pele of Romford…
Some folks like the fact you’re a Brit,
But I really do not give a whit,
From start or the bench,
And though you’re not French,
You have got the old Arsenal grit!
Not afraid to run through a bustle,
And always face up to a tussle,
Well, I do suppose,
Though you don’t know “Pete Rose,”
Over here, you’d be called “Charlie Hustle.”
All your cautions I’d like to expunge,
Every clumsy challenge and lunge,
Though to me you’re the guy,
I would ask you, “Please why
Not quit combing your hair with a sponge?”
Opponents think you are quite devious,
But there ain’t been nothing egregious,
And I do like the way,
Your bio does say,
Prior club: sorry, no, nothing previous.
-G. Rex

Sorry mate, for some stupid reason Fox Sports World/Sky Sports have decided to show the gloryhunting northern manure scum’s game against Wolves instead of ours.

Oh, it is only Ray Parlour…
Great stuff recently G. Rex - apparently something has reinvigorated your “creative juices”… I’m guessing it is the digitalis…

Nice ode to Ray… I’m one of those who thinks he sometimes doesn’t get the appreciation he deserves.
