End of the Season, but still busy busy.

Hi Guys

Sorry I haven’t been in touch for a while, but since the season finished most of us have been busy with different things, I have been doing some appearances in schools and clubs talking about my career as a footballer and how important it is to keep fit and healthy. I even went to our centre of excellence and spoke to the girls about nutrition and healthy eating and how important it was to have a snack after training like a cereal bar, milkshake etc, when I asked who had snacks most of the girls raised their hands which was pleasing but then said it was to put them on for the Mac Donald’s on the way home (think I have a little bit of work to do there) I have also done a little bit of TV work hopefully most of you watched the continental cup final which was Arsenal against Birmingham, Arsenal were worthy winners and without a doubt they have been the best team that we played last season. My other TV work is a programme called, “world have your say” were people from around the world can call, email and Skype in and give their views on different topics in men’s football at that time. It is good for me as it makes me research the game in more depth and find out how football is across the world, my research obviously hasn’t been the best as when I was talking about Spain and how dominate they are in the game I mentioned some players the best one being Messi (for those as daft as me he plays in Spain but his country is Argentina) Hopefully they will ask me back!!!

Now to the interesting part our end of season night out. It was quite a sophisticated affair (well at the start of the night) We met in a nice bar before walking to a lovely restaurant in the centre of Lincoln, everyone attended and after our meal the awards were presented. Sophie Bradley won players player of the year, Leandra little won managers player of the year and the best prize went to Jess Clarke who won wolly of the year, this was during Rods team talk when he said “remi anchoring” and Jess thought we had signed a new player called Corrine, and turned to me and said, “who’s Corrine” brilliant!! All the awards were well and truly deserved, it has been a good season for us but we know there is much more to come and this is just a building block, we want to win things and that’s exactly what the entire club will be working towards. We are all very professional and you would never see any of the girls getting in at 5am on the sat morning after going to a strip club being the only place open that was serving alcohol not realising what bar they were in..Mentioning no names!!!!

I would also like to take this opportunityto thank Ray True who not only treated us all to a lovely meal and drinks but has supported us through the season. Without his help we wouldn’t be where we are today and hopefully we can win something for him next season to say thanks for all his support.
