SPHINX DRIVE BLACK HOLE...

Sphinx Drive Black Hole…

Surroundings dismal and dark as black inks
Make goalkeeping tough at Coventry Sphinx;
Goalies peer through the gloom at a ball’s dim flight,
As ill-placed flood-lamps wrestle with the night…

Exposed and open, the Sphinx Drive chill
Unleashes cold wind and discomfort at will,
Which rattles the rear of the sole enclosure
To leave spectators suffering from acute exposure…

Sphinx Drive, where Coventry United play now, can be a most desolate and dark place to watch soccer, or more especially to be a goalkeeper…
