Where it all began

As September ends it has dawned on me that I've been writing this blog now for almost 5 months (I know, right?) and whilst the mega-fame and 5-book deal is yet to materialise, I have been enjoying it and thanks to you lovely people have received some decent feedback.

You might be thinking that this is the first time I have ever tried anything like this. Well friends, think again. My first foray into writing about football came over 12 years ago (only 2 days out from the date I started this blog, coincidentally) and rather than tell you all about it, I thought the best thing would be simply to show you.

Reading the letter it seems clear that this has always been my destined path, mainly because I'm happy to spend far too long in my spare time (of which I now have a lot, any employers in Sydney, gissajob) writing about football.

So below, in all it's glory, is my strongly worded letter to Glenn Hoddle, England Manager.
