Arrowsmith, Alf Alf was one of my favourite players
He gave his all for our team seen him on arkles lane he was
And he was on a bike going to the match just before a game
That was part of his fitness training
Crowd was cheering as he was getting to the ground
A massive grin on his face
Packed a fantastic shot
Always remember him
RIP alf
