Sorry, sent off before I finished.
This is what I found.

"Of all the matches played for years,
This fairly put the tin hat on:
Aw'msure those fooak fra Accrington
will feel reet deawn an'sat on.
For every mon sent deawn to bat,
An thowt thad ball he'd thump,
Seemed to come wi'th toothwarch
Then Winyard drew his stumps.

Win-yerd 'em talk on th' cricket game
Us lads as comes from Church,
But we allus find a good un to,
To fotch em off their perch"

Sister Mary Catherine(Paddock House) used to tap us on the head with a long ruler, if she heard even just a hint of ossie dialect, so unfortunately I'm losing out.
I suggest Cashman does some on-line lessons.
