Men meeting up for football not always on time
The goals have been set up and nets are on
The manager talking to players one by one
But the talking and discussion starts days before
A player text to say his knee is still sore
A text is sent out to the rest of the squad
Hoping everyone ok the manager prays to God
The day of the game and the kit given out
Holes in the socks, a new kit is the shout
The manager names his starting team
Some players walk off unhappy they seem
The game is played on a muddy, wet pitch
An hour gone, a player complains of a stitch
Three subs made to try and change the game
Nothing much changes all exactly the same
The referee has a big decision to be made
The goalkeeper should really have stayed
A penalty given and the striker takes the kick
The goalkeeper saves he moves so quick
A draw a fair result on the windy wet day
One thing left £5 subs still to pay
The car journey home the inquest begins
The striker takes responsibility for his penalty sins
The pub after and the discussion is on hold
Chip butties and a sausage that is uncooked and cold
A few more pints and the finger is pointed
Blaming the midfield that looked disjointed
This is much better than shopping with the wife
Although coming home injured could land in strife
Just think next week we do exactly the same
All because we love this beautiful game
