I know Daniel Sturridge's uncle Dave very well. He has always told me Daniel was more interested in playing football as a youngster than actively following any team. Through Dave I have also met Daniel's uncle Derek who is a teacher and Dean who played for Derby, Leicester and Wolves. The other two brothers are Simon who played for Small Heath and Daniel's dad who had a spell at Small Heath as a youngster. The Sturridge brothers also have a sister who is a head teacher who has won awards for turning round problem schools. They are quite a small family but Daniel and his dad seem to be bigger built than the others.

Dean Sturridge Junior scoring for our U13s.

Let's hope that this Sturridge doesn't get away  :)

I regularly watch the U-13s. He is pretty good for his age, but he is not the best there.

Which player was it who blanked Doug at the press conference when Doug wanted to shake hands?

Wasn't it Baros and it was more of a not realising who it was than a blanking.

Is this from a different planet and different gravitational pull to ours?

Those are the ones that got away. Not before they brainwashed Randy into signing TSM.

Looks like it was taken on a mobile phone from quite a distance!

That keeper should be ashamed of himself. I hope there were no treats for him in the car on the way home.
