barnie41 29 #1 Posted September 23, 2017 (edited) Ayup - I used to write a bit and decided to do something for this weekend. See what you think - lets enjoy it whatever side you're following (so long as the Blades win! :thumbsup:) Sheffield Derby Day I hear there's talk of a Manchester derby Of Liverpool and Everton too Celtic and Rangers - forget it And the Villa when playing the Blues What about Southampton and Portsmouth? Newcastle and Sunderland - No! And the 'mighty' Ipswich and Norwich - No way! Or Roma against Lazio Argentina v England is small fry Scunthorpe and Hull's just a game We all know the true derby is Sheffield's The only one that's befitting the name It's the one in the real home of football The one where this great sport began There's nothing quite like it anywhere else One true game for the real football fan Pepe and Wenger - who are you? Conte and Jose - get real You're all on the back of the home of the game United and Wednesday - the real deal They'll feel the earth moving on Sunday When the Blades and the Owls clash again It's no earthquake this time I can tell you Just a clash between real Sheffield men The Owls and the Blades are preparing To lock swords in battle once more Nails will be bitten, and throats will be hoarse They'll be desperate to settle old scores The noise level - well it'll be deafening And tension will thicken the air When the Blades and the Owls both take to the pitch And serve up some real football fare Liverpool and Manchester get watching To the true football city you'll bend That's why it's the best, the real derby game SHEFFIELD - THE HOME OF FOOTBALL THE END! © Barnie41 23.9.17.
