A footballer's regret

I was jumped on and hugged by my team,

We were into the final,I'd fulfilled my dream.

But  due to the ball going into the net,

The hugs  of celebration I do regret.

 

I caught the virus and passed it on,

Sadly too heaven my gran has gone.

Poignant stuff. Thanks, Hugh and Julie. There's a lot of backslapping going on in cricket matches, where there's much less excuse for it. High fives, anyone?

Hugging others is banned
for the likes of you and me
Hugging goes unpunished
when playing football on TV
