Gather ye Rosebuds while ye may

Recommended Posts

GATHER ye rosebuds while ye may, 
  Old Time is still a-flying: 
And this same flower that smiles to-day 
  To-morrow will be dying.

Not my words of course, oh no.  These are the words of the mighty poet Robert Herrick (d 1674) but much of what he says still rings true in the helter skelter cutthroat world of Premier League football.  If we delay bringing in fresh new blood for too long then we risk coming up empty handed as the transfer boat has sailed.  If we rush in without full and proper planning then we risk being left with egg on our faces.  Remember, the early bird may catch the worm, but sometimes the worm turns and then you''re in a sea of trouble without a pot to piss into.

 

What will Lambert do?  Sign early, or wait patiently?  Nobody loves a wallflower.  On this I can give you my word - I didn''t have sex until I was 43 and that was only after a day trip to Cuba.  Will Lambert deliver the goods, or will we be sold a pig in a poke called "Premiership"?

 

One thing is certain - the world and his wife will be listening.

 

Be good to one another. [Y]
