        He was my hero when I was at school. I even had a pair of white football boots. Very sad day.

              Were they the ones with the disk on the bottom to help you "turn like Alan"?

              He was a smashing player and a gent to boot



              Did you see what I did there eh?
              I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                True, he was a crap manager, a serial relegator. Who can forget the Man City debacle.

                But he was a very good player and a great character. I saw him play for the opposition in my first ever trip to Chelsea.

                    I often wonder about this, the guy must have spent most of his life at quite high fitness levels so what chance do us ordinary folk stand?
                    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
