I haven't ever read anything that represents a WAG with so much warmth, so much compassion, takes into account how much a footballer might want and love his girlfriend even though to the world she might be just a version of opportunistic gold-digging whore. You bring that in and I have so much respect for you. Also, Peter is stark and honest and real and unsure and so human...the fact that he wants Abi, (on a different level than he wants Stevie and that too comes across beautifully...the complete fucked-up-ness of the situation), wants her enough to fight for her and against Stvie, the sheer simple human superstition of the good-luck-charm, and the ending ws so so beautiful...h finally stands tall, without folding in on himself,and Abi gives him that, the ending...she loves him and all of him, Peter the human being and Peter the footballer, but all of him, the tendernes is real, and Peter knows. This was absolutely beautiful and poignant in a way I've never read before.

Thank you so much! Well, I have to be one of the few people in the world who actually likes Abigail Clancy, and one of the only ones who likes Peter besides, so I wanted to convey that. This really is Abi as I saw her on Britain's Next Model, as best as I could represent her. This really is kind of like my love song to both of them, so it makes me very happy you liked it so much. Woot for Camp Crouchaldinho!!!!!! :-)

BTW love your header thing, the 'tread softly...'. That's one of my favorite Yeats poems, too... :-)
