Not a blog report as such, but more of a way of me keeping my own movements in some kind of diary like chronological order for future reference.
'Twas an evenly balanced encounter, that was narrowly edge by the Blades, with a goal late in the game.
I spent the afternoon in the company of some ambitious 'younger' people who are hoping to take on coaching roles within the professional game.
But I must stress; I'm personally way too old (an unfit) for all of that kind of caper, but occasionally need to tick boxes to keep some (non-coaching) FA qualifications I hold up to date.
Y'never know... this kind of thing might stand me in good stead for keeping my hand in when the time comes for me to retire (or find myself pensioned off) from my gainful employment outside of football. Not that I'm in any particular hurry to get more hands on experience to that end... not for a good few years yet anyway.
You're never too old to learn and the more often that I attend these kind of events, the less I realise that I actually ever knew.
For the record, it was good to see Blue striker Isaac Vassell getting another hour or so under his belt on his road to recovery this afternoon. I wonder if he is aware that my homework assignment for tonight is writing an essay about him.
