Cold Comfort At The Impact…
If there is a deity
Controlling who should be cold
Then the recipients sat
Bereft,
Bedevilled
And beguiled
At the Impact Stadium were the ones,
If the truth be told…
If there is a god
Controlling what comfort is allowed
Then the spectators sitting
Bereft,
Bedraggled
And bemused
At the Alfreton stadium were the ones,
Overlooked in the crowd…
Pete Ray…
Gods.
Alfreton. Cold.
November 2008…
Alfreton Town beat Stalybridge Celtic, managed by Steve Burr, who is ‘family’ by 2-1…
Despite looking the brighter of the two teams for much of this hard fought contest, Celtic failed to increase a tenuous lead, were caught on the counter-attack and conceded a penalty, which resulted in a sending-off for both Celtic’s Keeling and their generally subdued manager Steve Burr.
Still Stalybridge pushed forward, making light of being a player short but Alfreton held on to claim a tough victory…
The away dugout was unfortunately positioned just down from the bar, which resulted in home ‘fans’ beating on the roof of the construction, in between swigs of beer, which I maintain is why Steve got himself dismissed, so that he could watch the proceedings in peace…
But who knows, eh?
