Going back on my roots
My Northern English heritage has always been a source of personal pride
I’ve always believed that I was born the right side of the North/South divide
An industrial revolutionary raised from the stock of the working classes
A staunch belief in equal rights, human rights and justice for the masses
So as a man of principal, it’s hard to ditch my northern sisters and brothers
To head south of the border and stand side by side with Southern others
But the thought of shrill scouse voices rattling round my head
Singing you will never walk alone fills my heart with dread
Therefore on the first of June, this Mancunian son won’t give two hoots
About his Northern English Heritage or his Northern English Roots
I’ll be cheering on Pottechino’s boys, resplendent all in white
As they take on and overcome Jurgen Klops red shite
Fingers crossed that Tottenham Hotspur are crowned European masters
As the mickeys cry into their scarfs to the tune of …
You Scouse Bastards!
You Scouse Bastards!
You Scouse Bastards!
You Scouse Bastards!

I recall locating a very disturbing video online of a match between
Liverpool and Man. Utd following the tragedy suffered by the
latter in the Munich air-disaster. The chanting of the Liverpool
supporters made a vile mockery of that tragedy. I've never
had much time for that club or its supporters.
