Jack 92
My people are from the community of football both local and national
My people include varied characters from over 50 years in the game
My people include comrades of shared successes and disappointments
My people talk of times from decades ago as if they happened last week
All reflected in rose tinted glasses and a barbed changing room humour
My people are linked forever by moments of significance
My people also include those I know of, rather than who I know
The Gods and Villains of the professional game.
They don’t know me, but they are my people
My people live in a tribal world of fierce loyalty, regardless of sense or fact
My people are from the glorious game
