  Summary

  "The last thing Grandad had said to him was: you’re going to be a real footballer, a real star, Roy, and he’d never given him instructions beyond that. Never told him what to be when he couldn’t be the only thing he’d ever dreamt of being.

  Maybe he knew now. But he hadn’t, then."

  OR: In which Roy Kent stops resenting the aches of aging and starts embracing the wisdom of it--and also, in a very real way, does the same with Jamie Fucking Tartt. A companion piece to "doesn't it go on for a long time?" by LadyCharity.
