Don't Panic Mad Massimo....

No it's not Monk's time to go
He's not been given a chance you know
Lots of signings here and there
Painfully aware
That it'll take a while to gel
Get your mitts off the alarm bell
Defensive disasters nothing new
All we can do
Is keep the faith flying high
As other teams buy
Big marquee signings
There are silver linings
Some quality youngsters again
Cynicism set in before they put down the pen
Wednesday win masked frailties
Corner calmities brings frustrated fans too their knees
Praying for a new owner and more
At times we can be pretty poor
Yet despite big spenders
Mega money lenders
There's some dark horses emerging
As Chinese and A.Nother allegedly are converging
We stick to the day job
No time to sit and sob
Over boyhood heroes
That's how it goes
A fickle game
Fans still fanning the flame
Of infighting eating us raw
Let's not go on a several divisions tour
Be brave
Behave
It's not a quick fix
Though some gave up before a ball was kicked
Too many cooks
Dodgy Italian crooks
Whatever
Let's keep marching on together
Are we good enough?
A few diamonds in the rough...
Old habits die hard
Let's not give the manager the red card
Too early to call
One day we'll just concentrate on the football
Not the stuff off pitch
Let's hope the other day was just a glitch.

Losers Leeds.....

Will Garry Monk ever tweet again?
Schoolboy caught out with an opportunistic pen
Be careful what you wish for
We've seen this all before
Silvestri or Green
We're very keen
To character assassinate
But next game's a clean slate
It won't happen overnight
Protest some of us might
Yet midfield meltdowns
Defensive clowns
Are nothing new here
Let us be clear
Ok Monk's maybe not the messiah
But we never tire
Of getting the knives out
Giving the keyboard some clout
Cellino hasn't the clout of QPR, Newcastle or Villa
I know it's an ambition killer
The kids are alright
But will they sit tight?
History says we are just keeping them warm
I know that path's so well worn
Antonsson looks to have promise
Naivety aside
Viera has talent that can't be denied
No quick fix as always
Just got to hope this was one of those days
Birmingham no fools
We are short of a few tools
To tighten the screws in the wall
Of a misfit side
Let's just buckle up and 'enjoy' the ride.....
