Sunday smile

Good to see the Southampton revival ended by local rivals Brighton at St Mary's this afternoon. My Sunday smile has just widened a fraction.

Thought you might like to know that I past a Charlton player whilst out running along the river this morning. As he bounded towards me in a tracksuit and a fleecy deerstaker with his hood up, my first instinct was a boxer - his stature and the chiselled chin. The second we passed and our eyes locked I realised my mistake. Miguel Angel Llera. He must have turned around by the Cutty Sark because he overtook me later on around the outside of the Dome - I had already done five miles so it was to be expected. Good to know he keeps himself fit and doesn't rely on training sessions.

  1. Perhaps he was trying out his new head gear. How cool would a fleecy deerstalker look?

  2. It looked pretty good under an over-sized tracksuit hoot. Every inch the serious athlete. Typical that I wasn't running in any Charlton gear...
