Searching For The Soul Of Football

About Me

The picture is me with Kevin Doyle after we stuffed Burnley 3-0So here we are, I'm finally updating my myspace profile. Maiden Erlegh isn't going to bad, need to knuckle down a bit and start working properly. Been a good couple of years and hopefully that will continue. People are really starting to realise that I'm actually not a fucking twat and I'm game for a laugh.This year should be a good year. However, I will always look back on 2006 on the year which dreams were made of as I made some really good friends in people like Craig, Becki, Weasel, Kev etc who I often have a good laugh with in the evenings when I'm not working.[IF]If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you But make allowance for their doubting too, If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:If you can dream--and not make dreams your master, If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breath a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much, If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!--Rudyard Kipling

My Interests

My main interest is football as I am a passionate supporter of Reading Football Club. I am also a member of a number of supporters' groups. I also like music.Musically 2006 was a laugh, saw some brilliant bands like Muse and Feeder at the festival. Topped off with Red Hot Chilli Peppers and We are Scientists in single, separate events. 2007 will be better!Confirmed Gigs: Reading Festival 2007 Bloc Party NME Indie Rock Tour 2007 (The Automatic, The View, Mumm-Ra and the Horrors) Jet

I'd like to meet:

Sir Steve Coppell, David Conn, John Lennon2006 , in the words of Steve Coppell "As we say goodbye to 2006, I would like to give a huge thankyou to everyone who has played a role in the past 12 months-and especially to the supporters who have enjoyed the ride with us. I trust 2007 will be as equally exciting." It will take a lot to beat the footballing success of last year, however, fingers crossed it will be beaten.

Music:

Wolfmother, Muse, Audioslave, Arctic Monkeys, Iron Madien, Hard Fi, Meat Loaf, Maximo Park, Manic Street Preachers, Pink Floyd, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Verve, Richard Ashcroft, Bloc Party, Babyshambles, David Gray, Stereophonics
