It is 45 years since Mossley AFC played Dagenham & Redbridge at Wembley in the final of the FA Trophy and I was lucky to be there early in my journalistic career. I have just been given this, something I will treasure. I watched Daggers win 5-0 at Stalybridge Celtic in an earlier round

Only when working on a tribute to former Manchester City striker Barney Daniels, who has died aged 74, that I discovered I watched his debut for Stockport County away to Workington AFC in 1976 #ManCity #ManchesterCity #MCFC #stockportcounty

How sad Headingley was barely one quarter full - even with ticket prices slashed to £20 - for day five of the Test as England Cricket produced their second highest run chase in a fourth innings against IndiaCricket It deserved a full house #englandcricket #weareenglandcricket

Can't believe why it took so long to return to Queen's Park, Chesterfield, surely one of the most picturesque cricket grounds, to see Derbyshire CC against Lancashire Cricket I last visited in the late 1970s to watch the great South African Eddie Barlow playing for Derbyshire.

Quite a surprise to meet Roland Butcher, the first black cricketer to play for England, who was today signing copies of his autobiography 'Breaking Barriers' at Derbyshire CC against Lancashire Cricket He was unaware that we are both working on the same cricketing documentary.

Loved the humour of James Anderson after Lancashire Cricket match at Derbyshire CC Asked to pose with a family for a group shot, the Burnley FC football fan spotted a young child wearing a shirt of bitter rivals Blackburn Rovers and joked everyone but him was welcome on the photo.

Was a delight working with Robbie Savage in the last couple of seasons at Macclesfield FC (C) while covering games for the The Non-League Paper Surprised he is leaving the exciting project he and Rob Smethurst created at this point in time to join Dale Vince at Forest Green Rovers

Tragic news about the death of Liverpool FC star Diogo Jota and his brother Andre in a car crash and only two weeks after the father-of-three married his partner. He was a footballer with a phenomenal instinct in front of goal #RestInPeaceDiogoJota #diogojota

When Barney Daniels signed for Manchester City for £1,000 and an additonal £3,000 after he played six first-team matches, they also sent their first team to Ashton United FC as part of the deal. Lovely touch by Michael Bennett to reproduce that programme and hand it out to mourners.
