A gloomy Tuesday evening saw
Us travel in the cup,
And just before kick off the rain
Heavy – would not let up.
The match was even, the ball zipped
But chances: very few,
And right before half-time The Ghosts
Began to turn the screw.
A penalty was hammered home
And then – after the break,
A long free kick caught Birdy out
And chances, more, they’d take.
At four nil Crosby pulled one back,
A very well placed shot,
The hosts scored number five but then
Big Nelly took a pot!
A thirty-five yard free kick flew
Past Gammon in their goal,
But in defence we need to lift
Ourselves out of this hole.
It’s Downham Town on Saturday
A tough game it will be,
A point at home would be a boost
But we shall aim for three!
