Hi Ed002, I see there have been some changes at clubs behind the scenes, with Paul Mitchell joining NUFC as Sporting Director. I always remember you speaking highly of him so will be interesting to see how that goes.
Secondly, it seems the two Academy Directors at Chelsea are leaving somewhat unexpectedly. They seem to have extremely good reputations and since LFC only seems to go for ex Chelsea academy, I wonder if you had heard if there was interest in Bath and Fraser from Liverpool?
{Ed002's Note - Yes Paul will be moving to Newcastle now the Ashford situation has been resolved - he really should have been first pick at Manchester United. Neil Bath and Jim Fraser are not leaving suddenly - they informed Chelsea of their decisions after the season finished on May 11.}

Ok thanks Ed, the info I read made it their leaving was a 'shock'.
{Ed002's Note - Well the club have made every effort to have them stay. Perhaps a surprise rather than a shock.}

Huge step up from selling cars and running pubs on Albert Square, Walford.
