Time to lay the bogey
That Craven Cottage holds,
And to see if just once
It´s Cottagers who fold,
Psychological nonsense
Some probably would say,
But in sporting events
It has a part to play,
And since Worthy´s 0 - 6
And before, come to that,
When we grace their home ground
We´ve always fallen flat,
The last win we managed
When on their turf, we play,
Was in nineteen eighty-six
On a fine New Years´s Day,
So thirty years almost
Have gone since that one-nil,
A very lonely high spot
Since when it´s been uphill,
Surely now it´s our turn
To once more taste a win,
In that London borough
Where points have fallen thin,
This year in particular
Considering their start,
Chances can´t be better
To go take them apart,
And if we should triumph
That monkey then would be,
Removed, at least for a while
And would bring us much glee,
As well as points most useful
To help in this year´s quest,
Which, as we´re all hoping
Is to end as the best. OTBC
