This blog won’t be about anything in particular, other than subjects which interest me.

Things I’m passionate about, professionally interested in or moved by.

I guess the first represents all three of those.

This is actually a replication of a post which I wrote initially for LinkedIn.

It received just shy of 50,000 views, so I figured it may as well run here too.

“I’ve been match day stadium announcer at Pittodrie for Aberdeen Football Club since the 2005/2006 season.

I’ve witnessed 5 managers take the reins full time. Jim Goodwin makes 6, and today I also got to introduce once more to Pittodrie, our greatest boss ever.

If you know me at all, even a little bit, you’ll know how honoured and privileged I am to be the current custodian of that position.

As Sir Alex stepped out, the crowd erupted and the RDS display came to life.

I cannot begin to articulate how magnificent it looked. I felt like I was 6 years old again.

Football TEAMS have ups and downs. Football CLUBS are like family.

There for you forever.

I’ve had many great jobs in my life.

None beat this.

Thank you for giving me that opportunity 🙏🏻❤️

Thanks for coming home Fergie. ” #SAFhomecoming #OADAAD #COYR
