Pantomime season is upon us- so this seemed an appropriate tribute.
(Enter Fairy Wiggy- Stage Left.)
"Enter King Peters- just in time,
To change the Shrewsbury Pantomime.
He comes to break the Quillan's power-
Transform our poor lacklustre shower.
"GRANT us our wish!" the fans all say-
And Grant's transformed within a day.
And he will play the fool no more-
He's quick, he's neat and he can score!
And from the Preston Lands afar-
He summons up a rising star-
Young Langmead puts them all to flight-
And soon becomes the fans delight.
Young Edwards Chances looked so slim-
The Quillan sought to banish him.
But Peter's faith is so much surer-
Edward becomes an ace goal-scorer.
Even the Flying Hairdo swings,
The ball into the net on wings!
Darlo and Gasmen made to bow-
What is the future for us now?
The only way is up-
AND HOW!!!
(Anyone think of a title for the Pantomime? I couldn't think of one!)
