I was saddened to read the recent news that the former Leeds United player, Liam Miller, is suffering from cancer.
He is only 36, so far too young to be battling the disease.
My fondest memory of Liam is his part in one of Leeds United’s great comebacks in the club’s history. Miller scored the winning goal in a 4-3 victory over The Saint, after Leeds trailed 3-0. I was lucky enough to be there.
Liam battled hard in that game. I am sure he’ll give his all in this latest battle.
Tonight, was the FA Cup draw, for the first round of the competition. As is tradition, it was broadcast, live on TV, from the home of one of the smallest remaining clubs in the cup – in this case, Hyde United.
While awaiting the draw, I noticed a familiar face in the crowd…
It looks like my tweet got a positive reaction. Mind you, Justin Bieber probably gets a million tweets, simply for saying he’s off to take a dump.
This is a great headline and news story…
Thieves who broke into a football stadium and stole giant TVs raided fridges to stage a food fight…
Made me think what the staff must have thought when they discovered the burglary…
“Where’s the telly?”
“It’s scone!”
I shouldn’t really take pleasure from the misfortunes of others, but when I saw that Wales had failed to qualify for the next World Cup, I laughed so hard, that a little bit of wee came out.
I’ve nothing against the Welsh, or their fine country. The reason their nation team’s failure gave me so much joy, is because of their mockery of England, last summer, when we were knocked out of Euro 2016.
Gareth Bale claimed no Englishmen would get into the Welsh national side (conveniently forgetting that a large number of his team were English-born). We’ll, who’s laughing now?
England are pretty useless. They will be lucky go make it through the group stage in Russia, next summer. I have little doubt that it’ll be 3 games of disappointment… but it’s 3 games more than Bale will be playing!
This is brilliant…
