Eye, eye, eye, it's initiation time for important issues infuriating and informing our inhabitants.
Inform us of inherent injustices and insolvable inquests with impressive insight, inordinate inspiration or even insufferable insults.
Guess what - we have reached Week I already. Gazza will decide who takes on the Mantle of Brilliance this week.
all yours.

collection of 'Suits' we've had over recent years.

Ian James Muir.
Record goalscorer for Tranmere Rovers during the late 80s and early 90's. Probably the most naturally talented football I ever came across whilst teaching and coaching the game. Tell him anything once and that was all he needed.
He went to the secondary school I taught at in Coventry, signing for QPR as a 14 year old, playing for Coventry Boys, West Midlands Schools and England Schools U15, netting a memorable goal at Wembley. In school games we had to play him in defence to allow the opposition to keep the goals-against down. He would still take the ball the length of the pitch beating 20-30 tackles and then laying it off unselfishly for a team-mate to score.
His dad was going to stop him going for England Schools trials as he thought it might dis-bar him from ever playing for Scotland as a full international !! It was quickly pointed out that would not be the case. Never made much of life at QPR or later at Birmingham and Brighton. Frank Worthington (player-manager)then signed him as a strike partner to do all the running for him at Tranmere. John King then developed him into the all-round player that Tranmere fans promoted to hero status.
Injury and the signing of some upstart called John Aldridge marginalised his appearances after 10 years of valuable service. 180 goals in all competitions, two promotions and 5 Wembley appearances to his name.
He never forgave me for making a guest turn-out in the lads vs staff game the year after I had left the school and saving his penalty kick giving us a 4-3 win.

The winner for me, and regardless of the sparsity of entrants by no means any less of a worthy victory than any other so far, is Lennie. Excellent piece, matey!  Cheers to Rog and Eps for their entries too.  |

Cheers Gazza.
I nearly didn't post that (was going to wait for Week M !!!).
However, a win is a win.
"I" will be a very thin chapter if we ever publish.

"I" will be a very thin chapter if we ever publish. Hopefully there will be more added before it ever got to that. Let's not forget any unused ones from the original CHAOS thread though, matey! countyheaven.freeforums.net/thread/114/week |
