Old Trafford, Manchester, 14th August 2021
They’d been preparing for this for weeks
Olympics – a mere distraction
to what lay ahead
The match – early saturday
the vendors – out with their home made goods – were there on Friday
the banner stretched across the entrance gate window
a statement of intent
red carpet laid out for the opposition fans
hoping they’d enjoy the spectacle – if not the scoreline
The Inkwell
