European Golden Boot
-- The honours keep piling in for superstar Paul Moses, as he is awarded European Golden Boot winner! Juventus striker Julio comes in second and Man United’s Yaya Sanogo comes in third. What an honour for young Moses!
Preseason Friendlies
- We accept a lucrative offer from France’s Olympique Lyonnais to play a friendly in their stadium so we’ll choose France as our destination for this year’s preseason foreign tour. We started this practice of conducting a two-game foreign preseason tour in 2018/19 and in past years, we’ve visited Brazil (three times), Scotland, Italy, Germany and Holland.
Transfer Talk
-- A few teams come calling for Shanon Andrea and I accept offers from Sevilla and Evian TG FC. Andrea is unhappy that I decline a bid from Espanyol but it was two million pounds less than I wanted. Too bad.
—In the “You’ve GOT to be Kidding Me” files, the young American striker I was chasing decides to go to Sunderland and rejects our contract offer. Damn. This throws a wrench into the proceedings.
