Russell Martin, we want to thank you for all that you have done,
Those very special moments where we were all as one.

That wonderful day at Wembley that no one will ever forget,
Those 25 games without losing, a record we could never expect.

We loved seeing you at the away games, when you came over to talk to our fans.
We all miss that thoughtful gesture; it meant a lot to us there in the stands.

For the people behind the goal at your last game, we apologize,
With their silly banners and chanting; that behavior our true fans despised!

Some people in this world are heartless, we all saw them in the Northam Stand.
Even Match of the Day said that they were harsh — they must think what ungrateful fans!

They did all of that to Ralph, causing us relegation then.
Now they've gone and done it to you, sending us spiralling down once again!

No one will save us this time, as you are no longer here.
We'll end up in the lower leagues below Pompey — oh, how they will cheer!

Once again, the loudest people have won.
We are sorry that minority let you down.
If our real fans could have had their own way, it would be them we would boot out of town!

Any club that you go to, Russell, it will be their lucky day.
We appreciate all that you did for us, and we just wish that you could have stayed!
