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
