I wish I could equate my own with their achievements,,,but I can't in any minute sense at all.Nevertheless I am grateful for my lot However I feel we are all lifted up because of their accomplishments . My son also has a theatric bent and ,to his credit raised Johnathon Millers exceptionalism with me which I was pleased to discuss with him Its amazing that some people like Miller can overachieve in two seemingly unrelated disciplines..it speaks to an incredible mind .I met a very few of similar ability in Uni and held them in awe,it all seemed so effortless to them.

Gutted Amazing cricketer, but what a man. As a commentator said everything that Neville and Carragher, had neither the courage nor the integrity to do so. Hard as the message was to give , never afraid to call out an ex-player. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteregg Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Ron Saunders basically built the Aston Villa European Cup winning team but resigned from the Villa when they were at the quarter final stage. Tony (forger his surname) went on to win the European Cup.Saunders was a Midland football legend. He managed Villa, Birmingham City and West Brom. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
