ENGLAND AND THE WORLD CUP

Centuries ago England invented a sporting game
They called it football and things would never be the same
The passion of the people is plain to see
The nation expects when the World Cup is on TV
The World Cup comes around every four years
Thirty two countries providing blood sweat and tears
1966 was the last time of England's glory
Geoff Hurst and extra time a remarkable story
In 2018 the country hopes it will happen again
It started well last night thanks to Harry Kane
Who knows what the next month has in store
The drama will be there for this I'm sure

i watch that game and was very happy England won since USA is not in this year England is my team
Hi Greg
I am an Englishman but will be cheering on the French..
Thanks for your read and review
Great poem mate, wish I could say the same for the game. The word lacklustre springs to mind. We really need to dig deeper for some fluidity as a team. Still, much better than watching Corrie.
Great write and unusually devoid of pessimism, nice one Kieran.
Nigel.
I actually backed Tunisia...if England ever win the cup I will eat my hat...glam players..not football players..
