Anyway.
You might not get much out of this, but I really quite loved it.
Within two years, Alex Ferguson has secured the F.A.
Manchester United eventually named a stand after him.
Steve Bruce, as Racey suggested, was indeed an England-class defender, and pivotal to Uniteds resurgence.
He never actually played for England in the end, though.
As for Stuart Reid of Hamilton, I feel his pain.

Karl Bradshaw was clearly having whatever Chris OConnor of N17 had been drinking.
Cariba, or Panda Cola.
Or that blue pop from the greengrocers you could get in the 80s.
I cant recommend that book enough.
As for Manchester City?
It would take a billionaire, rather than youth talent, to bring the glory days back.
At the time of writing, they sit atop the English Premier League table.
In this particular issue ofRoy Of The Rovers, that prize goes to Ron Newton of Tyne & Wear.
And this was some 17 years beforeX-Men: The Last Stand.
Ive been disgusted by the behaviour of Wimbledons Vinny Jones, Ron raged.
It cant do the Football Leagues image much good when hes allowed to get away with such conduct.
Vinny Jones won the F.A.
Cup with Wimbledon in the time between Ron sending his letter, andRoy Of The Roversprinting it.
Mr Jones now lives in Los Angeles, and has over 60 movies to his name.
I need to caveat this a little, by saying I cant draw, and never could.
But: poor Malcolm.
I think what really makes this is the accompanying text, though.
Again, poor Malcolm.
See if you might spot which is which…
Well, it amused the life out of me.
