I have unearthed this collector's piece which you might find funny!

As with the Sagas, all characters within these stories were ficticious and hence any association is in the mind of the beholder!

Please Note! This item was written back in the Autumn of 1983 when certain words meant something entirely different to today.

If anyone should know who the author is perhaps they could let me know. Thanks.

THE YORK ROAD SONG CONTEST 'THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND'

(To be sung to the tune of the Nottingham Forest record of the same name)


CHORUS:

We've got the best team in the land
We've got the best team in the land
We've got the best team in the land
We've got the best team in the land

We've Ronnie the Wriggly
We know him as 'Puff'
And Beresford Stevens
Whose outlook is 'bluff'
And Bobby the Franklin
Who can't get enough

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


We've Phelpsy and Salty
And Meadowfoot Field
And Gill the hardhearted
She'll never yield
And Tony 'Red' Ebden
(and HE even kneeled)

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


There's Neil A Cooper
He's cheerful and gay
In Contracts there is
A Greenfield far away
And grey Stevie Hill
Is harmless so they say

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


We've Dennis the Menace
On factory tour
And Peter the Skinner
Who knows what's in store
And Debbie Ann Taylor
With aims for the poor

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


We've got PED Sue
She's small but she's keen
And the girl with the doorbell
Oft heard but not seen
And Alan the Wiseman
The Test Section King

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


There's Bobby the Brochure
To mangle the truth
And Michael Joby
With his digital youth
And Tony the Cheshire
To hold up the roof

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!

We've Ricky the Stanley
It's all in the wrist
Phil Cotton who carries
A wireman's list
And Paul Tunafish
When he's not on the piste

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


There' CJ from Software
To prom up a track
And CJ from Digits
To polish the rack
And men from Goods Inwards
To send it all back

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


We've Simon Le Turvey
He's bright as a pin
Mohammed the Profit
But he'll never win
And Brian the Fireman
Who lets us all in

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


We've Big Bobby Davies
The management star
And Peter the Lance
Who we hope will go far
And William Doleman
To prop up the bar

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


There's wee Derek Hancock
As sly as a fox
We've Sister in Sickbay
To cure us of pox
Or Stevie the Nailer
To screw up the box

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!


There's Biggles O'Cockbill
Who's always on call
And Anthony Mole
Who for apples did fall
And Tony the Plantman
And that says it all

Chorus - We've got the best team in the land!
