Please Never Go Jonjo
We love that way/ You pass the ball
In the Championship/ You’re the best of all
A well taken corner/ Or a bending free kick
Or that rocket against QPR/ That was sick
We’re glad you’re back/ We missed you so
Without you friend/ Our chances are low

Love’s The Cost For The Boss
Our fearless manager/ I must discuss
Could’ve went to any club/ But you chose us
We got sent down/ But you said you’ll bring us back
And just like that/ We’re ahead of the pack
Please never leave/ Or we’ll be sad
Rafa Benitez/ What a lad!

The Keeper of Our Hearts
Life in goal/ Must make you feel alone
But after your life in the Forest/ We get to call you our own

We Fall for Jamaal
O captain O captain/ You lead all our boys
Executing any gameplan/ That Rafa deploys
An unknown guy/ When you arrived at our door
Now you’re our skipper/ And a man we adore
Keep shouting the orders/ You know our lads will listen
Get us back to the Prem League/ That’s always the mission

Love Mail for Gayle
20 goals this year/ You can’t be stopped
The EFL record/ Still could be topped
Murphy is good/ Mitro is wild
We needed a striker/ Glad it was your number they dialed
Hope your hamstring is fine/ And we’ll see you tonight
The only question remaining/ Is will you score with your left or your right
