so Magnusson,  
the mastermind that's a joke 
of West Hamateurs 
has sacked Pardew 
 
a scholarly note here 
pardew is old norman French 
for by God, as might appear 
in some Shakespeare play,  
'pardew, wench, thou hast a pair 
of foaming jugs, I warrant...' 
 
or in a later century of faith 
by God comes victory to the worthy 
 
or on the terraces,  
by God it's time he was sacked 
 
while Curbishley sounds 
more like a 19th century novel:  
'why sack the manager 
when it's the millionaire players 
who are at fault..',  
he answered curbishly 
 
well there you are,  
at the end of the day 
it's a game of two halves 
and creating chances 
if you'll excuse 
the oxymoron 
 
and talking of morons 
the after-match interview 
'how sorry are you to have lost today? ' 
 
pardew, a curbish lout of an interviewer, i'faith..
Michael Shepherd
