Poems by the man ridiculed as "the world's worst poet" are expected to fetch up to £6,500 at auction. Thirty-five of William McGonagall's works - many of them autographed - are going under the hammer on Friday.

The ditties by "The Tayside Tragedian" have been valued in the same league as Harry Potter first editions signed by JK Rowling [and] are expected to fetch more than rare first editions of James Bond novels, a Mickey Mouse book from 1931 and a first edition of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Go William!!!
