1454 - Losing my spurs

Today we went to the penultimate
Football team on our complete stadium tour
We started over ten years ago, mate
And today’s team was Tottenham Hotspur
Playing Wigan, and 0-1 was the score
A surprise win for the bottom-placed team
With only about thirty supporters
Yet those thirty must have thought it a dream
Their manager, Martinez, does now seem
Safe for now from the order of the boot
Yes, he was facing the sack if a poor
Result had happened, but this puts some sheen
On his coaching methods. There’ll be a spate
Of high-scoring games, I predict, this year
