Jesus Loses Red Card Appeal

Dependable Defender Jésus Christ of Nazareth Football Club

This morning lost His appeal for the red card He received

During His side game with the highly rated Pharisees

He’ll  be unavailable for their match against the Sadducees


He was sent off by no-nonsense referee Pontius Pilate

For defeating a host of Principalities and Powers

The Club failed to have the decision overturned by the Jurisdiction

He will therefore be sentenced to death by crucifixion


The ‘Special One’ is to make no comment on the decision

After Herod Disciplinary Committee dismissed the club’s appeal

Jésus offered Himself as a *Sacrificial Lamb* for a collective guilt

On the football club’s recent sloppiness and wilt


The Stalwart Defender's Penalty

Will begin with a physical torture

Followed by carrying a heavy rugged cross

Is the Disciplinary Committee right? Make your gloss

We talking football politics. He didn't tackle too hard
