The 71 year old was respected by everyone. People say he was the only one you wanted to please and be on the good side of – was the last person you wanted to make angry. I know I wouldn’t want to be in that dressing room at halftime if you’re having a terrible game.
The front-runner to succeed Sir Alex is heavily linked to fellow Scot and friend, Everton Manager David Moyes. This move could also see Roberto Martinez heading to Goodison Park. Whoever takes this huge challenge, even if it was the special one, would have an awful lot to handle.
Thank you for the service and what you did for the game. Sir Alex I salute you
As some of you have read previous, I am also a big movie fanatic. One movie that I am extremely excited about is coming out this summer, Superman; Man of Steel
Here is the trailer that will make the hairs on your neck stand up – Only if you are a superhero nerd like some of us out there. This is set to be Epic. Superman Returns was such a huge disappointment, especially after the Christopher Reeve legacy – can you really beat that?
The cast Includes: Henry Cavill, Russell Crowe, Amy Adams, Micheal Shannon, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishbourne and Kevin Costner.
With the end of the season drawing to a close, a lot of football fans worldwide talk about one thing… Transfers. Weather it is online in gossip columns, a discussion in the pub or reading it in the newspaper – players will be linked everywhere.
Few possible players being linked across Europe this summer
Chelsea move for Falcao
Xabi Alonso back to Liverpool
Cesc returning to the Emirates
United swoop for Marchisio
Robert Lewandowski to German rivals Bayern
City 20 million for Fernandinho
What are your thoughts, also do you have any other players being linked to other clubs?
Social media plays its part in the world in so many different ways its un heard of.
I must say that I have taken a huge interest in how it plays a part in our everyday life. Where ever you go, some how social media is around us. You see it when you go to the supermarket. When your watching your favourite TV show. It’s everywhere, Fashion industry, Sports, TV, News and Politics. It’s all about the Facebook page or more importantly Twitter account. A certain subject might be trending worldwide, so members of the social media world use Hash tags so their point can be clearly stated and identified.
Top politicians, athletes, actors, celebrities and general members of the public are all tweeting right now!
It’s interesting to hear people’s views on certain matters. I happen to Tweet regularly about everyday life, sports, football, coaching, TV and film. Id love some feedback on what you think

Titans started their High school indoor season over the weekend. We have entered two teams into XL World Soccer, Orlando.
This is a great facility which introduces quick techniques into the game. We suggested the boys sign up for this knowing it would be awesome fitness and conditioning for them on the off-season. Keeping them playing and keeping their level of fitness up. Games are split up into split 25 mins, with constant subbing. Indoor soccer is very similar to Ice hockey. – It was different, but I liked it.
Team A won there match 10-7
Team B started their game around 5 – getting used to the rules and keeping up with the tempo was a key. Winning the game 10-5
Was happy that both Titan teams scored 10 goals – good day. On to next week.
The world is in shock, Whitney Houston is dead at the tender age of 48.
Her music rocked so many people global – When we think of Micheal Jackson being the king of pop – Whitney Houston was the Queen of the night, Queen of pop. - This is such a tragedy, such a loss- a talent wasted. We all know she has had a rough couple of years, however, there were reports that she was on the mend. She was making a comeback.
We all remember the movie, The Bodyguard. All the classic hits. ” I have nothing” , “I will always love you” “I wanna run to you” and so many more..Not to mention all the Grammies she received. Last night, for the first time I watched her performance of the Star spangled banner at the Superbowl – chills ran through my body.
She graced us with, the worlds ‘voice’. No one could touch her. Whitney, was the greatest of all time. People all over the world are now listening to her music, paying their respects to such a talent and a remarkable music legend.
After a long meeting with the FA Chairman, David Bernstein at Wembley. The FA today have announced the resignation of Fabio Capello as England Head Coach.
Capello had a good campaign with the England national team. He was appointed in 2008 on a 4 year campaign. Fabio had a win rate of 67%- which is actually was the best of all time – hard to believe.
His record: 42 games, won 28, drew 8 and lost 6.
We wish him all the best for the future and thank you for his services…
The next question is, who will be appointed before the Holland game. Will we see Stuart Pearce act as interim coach until they appoint a new coach? Will Harry Redknapp come straight in? There is even talk about the Special one.
