The song this week is a tribute to Johnny King\u2026the most successful manager of Tranmere Rovers\u2026who sadly died this week. wrote the song in the late seventies when he was manager\u2026with the idea of getting the players to record it\u2026however there weren\u2019t many of the lads who could sing in tune so my version\u2026which was originally the demo\u2026was put out and it was played over the speakers at the home games and on the coaches for the away game\u2026\u2026I had the pleasure of visiting Johnny at his home\u2026up until then I had sampled the odd whisky\u2026when I left his house I had sampled a lot more\u2026great guy..sad loss\u2026.there is a statue of him outside the ground.\n\nOn the football front Leicester City are still top of the league and virtually everyone is supporting them\u2026.even inJapan\u2026they had a programme on TV where they had sold out of Leicester football shirts in some town in the Far East\u2026..it\u2019s always nice to see the underdog coming through\u2026I hope they win the premiership\u2026.and England are in the final of the 20/20 cricket world cup\u2026the slogging one\u2026much better than the drawn out 5\u2013 dayers\u2026here we go\u2026here we go\u2026here we go.\n\nOn the entertainment front Jeremy Kyle has replaced Piers Morgan on the morning breakfast news show\u2026.and I hate to admit it but he is very good\u2026much better than Piers\u2026which isn\u2019t hard\u2026.I\u2019m amazed Ant and Dec aren\u2019t on there\u2026.\n\nAnd we have had the sad news of the passing away of the great Ronnie Corbett\u2026to me he was a comedy genius and together with Ronnie Barker produced some of the best comedy ever\u2026those were the years when comedy was FUNNY unlike today\u2026they have been showing some of his classic sketches which never date.\n\nAnd also Brian Conley is back in the afternoon with special guests who recall their favourite TV\u2026.I am a big fan o fBrian Conley..he is a huge talent which seems to go un-noticed.\n\nThere has been a programme about our Queen at 90\u2026.it wasn\u2019t very exciting as it was basically clips we\u2019ve seen before\u2026it simply displays the ridiculous pomp and ceremony surrounding various events\u2026even the making sure that knives and forks are EXACTLY in the right place at Palace functions\u2026and how much does all this nonsense cost?\u2026.I\u2019m sure the homeless are delighted for them.\n\n.And finally\u2026.our southern shores have been battered by storms of late\u2026100 mph gales\u2026caused by \u201cStorm Katie\u201d\u2026.but it is a strange situation as we in the North West got away scot free\u2026missed us completely which makes a change\u2026.no doubt the blame will rest firmly on global warming or diesel cars\u2026.as SOMETHING has to be blamed.
