The House of Elliott

The top deck.

The chariot of the 127

to Dewsbury.

Rain scores the windows,

to reveal a view of Ingfield.

A raging red fort

that simmers, waits

for new battles.

Oh Ossett Town!

Bring your mighty heart

to this house of Elliott.

Let us

cheer goals,

tackles,

saves.

Clutch

sausage rolls

and tea

in the seething

rain.

Let us

send love to

the Juniors,

the turnstile lads,

the programme seller,

the floodlights.

Let us

be the victors

against

Ramsbottom,

Padiham,

Clitheroe,

and

Albion.

For this is our season.

Our team.

Our town.

Perchance to dream.
