Shame this great song can't be adapted..."he had everything a man could want, power, grace style".
A song influenced from this poem:
Richard Cory
BY EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON Whenever Richard Cory went down town, We people on the pavement looked at him: He was a gentleman from sole to crown, Clean favored, and imperially slim.
And he was always quietly arrayed, And he was always human when he talked; But still he fluttered pulses when he said, "Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.
And he was rich—yes, richer than a king— And admirably schooled in every grace: In fine, we thought that he was everything To make us wish that we were in his place.
So on we worked, and waited for the light, And went without the meat, and cursed the bread; And Richard Cory, one calm summer night, Went home and put a bullet through his head.
Great match report as always, was looking forward to that one.
Some have been wondering where Kolli fits in with the group of players we have. With this formation of two up front, could that be where he is best used if Burrell isn't playing and Kone is?
Fair enough Grove R. I actually think it was a good first touch as the pace and spin of it really worked for him. Whether that was the intention or not, not sure. Yes, keeper should have come out and would have probably got there.
In a world where life is becoming less "real" and authentic, people are craving real and authentic things. Like your vinyl example, books are the same, for many. See the massive YouTube views people get by just filming their lives living in a house in the forests of northern Sweden. Most viewers probably watching from their city flats.
If you think about it, going to QPR is no different to watching them in the 1990s. The stadium is pretty much exactly the same. I personally absolutely love it. When a goal goes in is there much in life that makes you feel more alive and in the moment than that?One of the few things left that's not sanitised.
Heard a West Ham fan the other day absolutely slating the London stadium (the walk there through Westfield, the distance from the pitch, the lack of atmosphere). Think what West Ham have lost by leaving Upton Park.
Not to say a new ground can't be done well, like Everton's.
I know what you mean, obviously nasty and unacceptable behaviour. Although, I have thought with Suarez, depends which way you look at it.
Always gave 100%, scored amazing goals, was committed and unplayable. That in itself shows some sort of character and conscience to do well and earn his money.
At the time he was at Liverpool we had complete wasters here to pick up vast amounts of money and put no effort in, showing serious flaws in character.
I know what type I'd rather have at QPR, given the choice.
Thanks for your reply and recommendations. The Japan series sounds great.
Another coincidence because the other brilliant book I read this year was 1000 Autumns Of Jacob de Zoet by David Mitchell. That's set in Japan at exactly the same period and for the same reasons.
That Zweig book was absolutely brilliant. I really like the era and setting too, having recently been to Vienna.
I'm sure we've all had our QPR players over the years that we back because of pity and hope that they'll come good. In fact, probably most of them!
I can recommend so many books on the Vietnam war that I've read over the years, random I know.
Were there always this many injuries at the beginning of a season? When I was a kid in the Wegerle / Sinton days the opening day always seemed a time when every player was guaranteed to be available.
Some people meaning "you have no idea". You're right, I don't. But he does look shit, you got to admit. Of course that doesn't mean he IS shit. Hope to be proved wrong.
