1283 - Football and work, in that order

Two great nights in Europe for English teams
Last night Arsenal beat Porto four nil
And that score’s become a recurrent theme
Man United beating Milan four nil
Tonight at Old Trafford, only a mile
Away from me, back home from Southampton
Where the meeting passed off today in style
A cold sea wind blew, fluttering flags on
Flagpoles, bending bushes. Conversation
Continued with coats worn by some. Canteen
Break, pork chop eaten, stomach nicely filled
A lift to Southampton Central Station
Then the long train ride home. Flying now seems
A quicker way; no need for a hotel
