I was in Manchester yesterday for what is generally considered the biggest fixture in our season, the match against Liverpool. They’re the two most successful clubs in England and the rivalry runs deep. To be honest, I haven’t experienced an atmosphere like it at Old Trafford before.
United went ahead with a Van Persie goal inside 20 minutes and should have added more before the break. Vidic bundled home a header after the break but Liverpool looked resilient and grabbed one back almost straight away. United seemed to be pegged back for the remainder of the game and Howard Webb didn’t do us any favours in bottling a few decisions. We got the result though (2-1) and the gap is still as it was to Man City. Thanks to Helen, a Liverpool fan, and great friend for coming along.
2012
Yes, it’s a retrospective blog post for the year ending. In fairness, I rarely do these things and wanted to acknowledge the amazing friends and family I have. I’m tremendously lucky to like what I do and I’m handed opportunities to do fantastic other stuff in my free time too. Here’s a few personal highlights from 2012:
A trip to Rathbeggan Lakes with Peter Donegan’s Garden Group (February 18th):
Spring Break 80s tribute band at the Button Factory (March 17th):
Visit my friend Cait in Athens (May 3rd to 8th):
My first trip to Greece and it was a particular highlight of the year.
Cheese rolling in the Cotswolds (3rd – 5th June):
I don’t appear to have written anything up on this, which I’m surprised by. Myself, Darragh, Steph and Blots spent three days in the Cotswolds to witness cheese rolling on a really steep incline. Great craic.
