SheGulls Christmas Shenanigans – feat. The Brighton Bard

A Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all the Brighton Women’s Team fans out there! As a festive treat I’ve put together some jokes, limericks, and all-round silliness for SheGulls readers to enjoy over the winter break…

Poem for Progress

Elevate the womens’ game
Is the aim
SheGulls has been created
Clever name.

They do great work
I have to say
And already an associate member
Of the FSA.

Brighton womens’ team
Held in high esteem
And a stadium in Brighton
Is now the dream

That would be such a sight
For the blue and white.
For the womens’ team
The future’s bright.

Jolly Jokes & Japes

Two Seagulls are perched on the Palace Pier in the middle of the night…

Gully: “I’m hungry, I’m going to try and find a fish to eat.”

Sally: “You sure? It’s pretty dark out there.”

Gully: “No harm in trying.”

Sally: “Okay well, good luck!”

Gully flies off into the darkness. Some time passes and the sun begins to rise. Sally sees her friend flying back with a juicy beakful of blood…

Sally: “Wow! Where did you find a feast like that?”

Gully 1: “You see that wind turbine over there?”

Sally: “Yeah…”

Gully: “Well I didn’t.”

Jolly Jokes & Japes

I keep telling a joke about a Seagull that’s always flying.
Unfortunately it never lands.

An Ode to Sophie

Baggers is a brick wall in goal,
On opponents it takes a real Toll.
Exceptionally brave,
She’ll pull off a save,
And the rest of the box she’ll patrol.

The ton of feathers because you have to live with the weight of what you did to those poor Seagulls.

Jolly Jokes & Japes

A maths teacher is explaining to her class about subtraction…

Teacher: “Billy if there are five Seagulls on a roof and you shoot one, how many birds are left?”

Billy: “None Miss, the others would fly away at the sound of the gun.”

Teacher: “Well the answer is four Billy, but I like the way you think.”

Billy: “I have a question then Miss. There are three people eating ice cream cones on Brighton beach, one licking, one biting and one sucking. Which one is married?”

Teacher (blushing): “Ermmm, I don’t know. The one sucking?”

Billy: “The answer is the one wearing the wedding ring Miss, but I like the way you think.”

Flight of the Seagulls

In sunlit fields, where dreams take flight,
There lies a team, a beacon bright.
With wings outstretched, they seize the day,
Brighton’s women, the Seagulls play.

Like seafaring birds, they grace the pitch,
Each movement swift, each pass, a twitch.
Their fervor kindled by the salty air,
They leave an imprint everywhere.

Bound by unity, their spirits soar,
In hues of blue and white they roar.
Their footsteps echo, harmonize,
In perfect rhythm, they mesmerize.

With nimble feet and fearless gaze,
They tread upon the crowded maze.
Through battles fought, they never slow,
Their passion fuels the final blow.

Strong as waves, they crash and surge,
Their gentle grace, a potent urge.
Their courage shines through every stride,
Defying odds, their fears they hide.

In cheers that echo, joy takes flight,
As Seagulls soar towards the light.
Their victories ripple through the crowd,
Their prowess praised, their story loud.

So let us sing a song for them,
For those who fly beyond the hem.
Brighton’s women, with hearts afire,
Forever Seagulls, live to inspire.

Hopefully this has brought a bit of cheer into your day and maybe armed you with one or two tidbits of mirth to regale the family with over the holidays! Feel free to share it with fellow supporters of Brighton & Hove Albion Women and indeed the entire club.

This will be the last post before Christmas so I hope everyone has a great time regardless of how you celebrate the occasion, and I’ll see you all afterwards to swap stories about the worst Albion-related gift you received – yes?

Much love, Duncan
