thorpie the sinner Posted 23 February, 2017 Share Posted 23 February, 2017 The Victor by C. W. Longenecker If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you don't. If you like to win but think you can't, It's almost a cinch you won't. If you think you'll lose, you're lost. For out in the world we find Success begins with a fellow's will. It's all in the state of mind. If you think you are out classed, you are. You've got to think high to rise. You've got to be sure of your-self before You can ever win the prize. Life's battles don't always go To the stronger or faster man. But sooner or later, the man who wins Is the man who thinks he can. Think Claude should read this to the boys just before they walk onto the pitch! Sunday is our day of destiny and we need to believe..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 23 February, 2017 Share Posted 23 February, 2017 If it's a good sporting poem you're after, I prefer "American Football" by Harold Pinter: Hallelullah! It works. We blew the **** out of them. We blew the **** right back up their own ass And out their ****ing ears. It works. We blew the **** out of them. They suffocated in their own ****! Hallelujah. Praise the Lord for all good things. We blew them into ****ing ****. They are eating it. Praise the Lord for all good things. We blew their balls into shards of dust, Into shards of ****ing dust. We did it. Now I want you to come over here and kiss me on the mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
