In scarf and hat weather we roamed
To Wisbech, to the west
In search of points against the Lynn,
Another tricky test.
The Linnets started well, although
Chances we did create;
But keyless were us Shannocks and
Padlocked was their floodgate!
Jacko would make a decent save
But soon, again, we’d need,
To step it up another gear
As King’s Lynn took the lead.
An own goal put the hosts in front
(Which overall was fair),
And just after the hour we
Were in need of a prayer!
The Lynn went two up, but the Reds
Should have pulled one straight back,
Somehow Kerry, deep in the box
Gave netbusting the sack!
Boycey looked good when he came on
Goals would, though, still evade
Yet Cary (Shannocks goal machine)
To shoot – was unafraid.
The bar rattled – and then, at last
We scored with five to go,
Tim Cary adding to his list
But up the game would sew.
It’s three defeats now on the trot
But fear not, do not weep,
The Castlemen visit next week
And the faith we will keep!
