Hello, Thank You and Happy New Year!

Hi everyone,

So far I have readers from UK, USA, Singapore, Denmark, Malaysia, Netherlands, Canada, Australia, Slovenia, Germany, India, Croatia, Bulgaria, Mexico, France, Iran and Botswana. Wow!

I want to send a big Thanks and Happy New Year to every last one of you. Every view gives me confidence to keep writing and more so to improve my skills.

I hope you have enjoyed reading and sometime laughing as much as I have enjoyed writing it. I love football and I hope you love the way I present it to you.

Best wishes,

Method to the Madness.

A lot of people seemed surprised that Sir Alex recalled youngsters Ritchie de Laet and Joshua King from Preston after the club sacked his son Darren Ferguson. I'm not. Not one little bit. Most loan agreements are about who the manager of the club is rather than the team.

Jack Wilshere was originally going to be loaned to Burnley in January but when Owen Coyle took over at Bolton, that's where the midfielder went. I saw this as a clear sign that Mr Wenger was interested in his player being looked after by a man he believed, shared his ethos and would look after the player in the way he deemed necessary.

Premier League Review - Match Day 20

Many fans and the clubs they support can't wait to see the back of 2010 in the hope certain managers New Years resolutions are 'to win more games'. Either way it's been a sterling first half to the season and here's my last round-up of this years last Match Day, that I decided to entitle:

BIRMINGHAM CITY 1 - 1 MANCHESTER UNITED

Apparently women and children were leaving the stadium first to miss the aftermath of Sir Alex spontaneously combusting. Or maybe, that was a dream!

Lee Bowyer netted his 55th PL goal to maintain the home sides record of one loss at home. Kudos has to go to Brum who played to their strengths to frustrate the Red Devils and their travelling fans. Birmingham took the game to the visitors before the 20th minute, when Ryan Giggs has Ben Foster showing why Sir Alex rated him so highly.
