Funny Old Game

Sam Allardice gets the sack, Kevin Keegan resigns or gets the boot, Joe Kinnear comes in from the cold and then has to have heart bypass surgery, and now Colin Calderwood the man recently sacked by Notts Forest finds himself at the helm along with Chris Hughton. Who said "It was a funny old game" ?. It certainly is for Newcastle fan's!. Hopefully for Colin he can turn it around, I worked with him at Northampton and he is very passionate about the game and a decent fella.

Talking about it being 'a funny old game' did anyone happen to watch 'Piers Morgan On' last night?. If so you may be familiar with the format, Piers Morgan the controversial ex editor of the Daily Mirrow, turned TV host and critic, has been visiting some of the most glamorous, most money driven places on Earth. We are talking Monte Carlo, Dubai and Hollywood. While out there he has interviewed countless millionaires, ex-pats, TV stars and singers about their experiences and views on money and stardom.
Last nights offering was in Hollywood and after visiting Sharon Osbourne (Pad!!!!) and Mel B, among others, he then asked Vinny Jones how life was treating him. If you don't know who Vinny is, a quick summary - former Hod carrier, turned footballer, turned actor. In fact, turned actor who now commands a million pounds a film and lives next door to Hollywood's A-Lister's.
After being asked the question "Hows it going?" Vinnie answered "I was riding down Mulholland drive yesterday on my Harley thinking where did it all go wrong" !!!!!!.
Now that is 'A funny old game' !!!!!!!.


As far as we are concerned at the club, it is back to business tomorrow. I can't predict results and I don't want to talk about ifs and buts. All I want to do is go to work and give it 110%, as do the rest of the lads.
