    An Evening with Sir Bob Murray (foundationoflight.co.uk)

    The talk-in event takes place on Wednesday 11th October, 6.30pm at the Stadium of Light.


    Got 3 tickets for this event tonight - can't go due to a mixture of illness and work commitments. Anyone want 1, or all of these? Should be a good night.....

    Xmas present?
    But Margaret Thatcher takes a kicking in his new book as Murray describes her as ‘cold’, ‘calculating’ and ‘inhumane’. Chuckling, he says: ‘I think that’s understated. I had it cut down by the lawyers. I put much worse in originally!

    ‘I’m really proud to come from the North East. And I’m proud of my working-class background. I saw her close the mines, close the shipyards, close the ironworks. That was her hat-trick. I saw the crumbs off the table the North East got to compensate.’

    Great little read that.

    We're lucky to have the owners we have now. And we were very lucky to have had Bob all those years ago. He saved the club, and built something worth taking on.

    Book will be bought .

    Just listened to it and some of the things he mentioned, playing at Roker Park, Denis Smith, Reidy, building the SOL - the memories just came flooding back
