    Well, well, I was wrong about Farke
    The fella has made quite a mark,
    But what do I know
    Getting old and slow
    A candidate soon for the Ark

    What I never thought I would see
    Again, seems as if it will be,
    Premiership mirth
    On Carrow Road turf
    While Town slipped away quietly

    So tell me, just how have they played
    As I´ve missed this season´s parade,
    But points ninety-four
    Is quite a good score
    So much must have been up to grade

    No doubt you all thought, ´twas the last
    You´d heard of me, but gasp <yikes>, aghast,
    In Canary gown
    It´s hard to keep down
    A conversing ghost from the past

    I´m delighted for Delia S
    Carrow Road´s loyal mistress,
    Promotion she´s seen
    In yellow and green
    Once more, so enjoy the success.

    A voice from the past indeed, RBF. Farke fooled us all (and all the pundits as well) but I hoped the attractive playing style would produce points as well and so it proved to be. Who could have predicted that a free transfer like Pukki would turn out to win the golden boot, or the Buendia bargain, or the transformation of Stiepermann - I could go on and on.

    Thank you gandy, and yes, season turned out very well, apparently. And, I know we shouldn´t mix sport and politics, but very nice to see the Euro flag fluttering. ;)

    Indeed RBF. I've probably shown my cards, but so be it! :grin:

    Morning Rick. I think Pukki came from Danish football, Brøndby wasn´t it?, and if I remember, he wasn´t anything to write home about there - so ´new pastures´ and all that. Whether he´ll find another level is perhaps debatable.

    Since 2014 I’ve not posted
    Turned off by Hughton being roasted
    Just lost count of the times
    I’ve missed RBF’s rhymes
    Now he's back -- and deservedly toasted!

    In his last 3 years at Brøndby he scored 31 goals in 81 starts and 12 sub appearances, including 20 in his final season there. He's also done well for Finland in recent years. The step up this year has also been due to his fit with and the service he's received from Buendia, Hernandez and Stiepermann (28 assists between them). Pukki also has 9 assists himself. I could see him scoring around 15-20 goals next season with only 38 games rather than 46.

    robbieBB just what can I say
    I felt very much the same way,
    But Hughton´s done well
    Since his City spell
    To offset those sour final days

    And thanks for your words, so kind
    It´s that sort that stick in the mind,
    I too, took a break
    For sanity´s sake
    Which I hope will soon be realigned. :emoticon-0102-bigsm
