Stormy's Knights

Hey all,

Well its been a while, a number of times i have started writing and it
just ended pear shaped so this time im making a determined effort to
start it again...

So quite a bit has been going on in my life since my worldwind travel
tour, and I have not actually been away much since, only really a 11 day
trip to the uk so nothing really exciting to report on that front...

My football team UN Knights have had a mixed season, we havent got the
best record when you hear it you will be like WTF? Basically we played
13 games won 4 drawn 1 lost 8 which sounds quite poor but if you put it
into perspective this is our first season and its been tough getting a
team together which is essentially a group of strangers and getting them
to commit to a team and play week in and week out and dedicate a large
amount of their time to this team, a number of the players have
committed and become good friends of mine as I admire their desire and
commitment whilst others I have lost respect for because I have seen a
side of them that I don't like or don't respect. Football on the surface
is so superficial a group of guys kicking a ball about but its so much
more than that...What people don't see is the off the ball running,
making space for your team mates by making runs, covering for your
teammates if they make a mistake, building up your team mates morale
when it is down, there is a lot more to football than meets the eye and
when you get sucked in its so hard to pull out...
Man Utd are currently going thru a disastrous time in the league and
inshallah things will pick up but it's a truly testing time with our
arch-rivals Liverpool excelling its putting a lot of pressure on the
team and fans to excel, inshallah they will, but its really nervous
times ahead and im sure ill be commenting a lot more bout it inshallah
as the season reaches that infamous squeaky bum time~!

I also recently met someone that im getting to know and will see where
that leads but as usual with me there are a few complications but
masallah im really happy and she makes me really happy at least for the
time being...so will c how that goes...i will elaborate more again as
inshallah the blogs restart..

Aneway that's enough for now inshallah you will hear from me sooon...
