My best tracks of 2008

The best tracks of 2008 is hard to choose really. Fish Go Deep's show Go Deep has selected their favourites but up until recently i always that José James (Moodymann Remix) Desire was a good track it still is but Matthew Mulholland's It aint that deep is proberly my favourite 2008 house track fantastic stuff and it was released in April last year just in time for the summer hits. 

Summer 2009

If summer 2008 is anything to go by i have to say summer 2009 will be a treat. 

2008: My summer holidays began on June 16th last year but really for me they started end of May. The weather was good in May and June and i was off to Sweden on June 28th. I had to watch the Final of Euro 2008 in a B&B in Dover which Spain won 1-0 against Germany. But up in Sweden i had a good time really. On July 28th almost a month after the euro 2008 final i went to the Behrn Arena to see Orebro SK v Hammarby. I can tell you that was a cracker of a match and Orebro took the lead early but in the 2nd half Hammarby scored but what a game it was. 

But on 82 minutes Orebro took off Nordin Geric and replaced him with Robert Walker. Robert is a Swedish-Irish player and qualifies as Irish through no other than Patrick Walker his father and former Bohemians man. He kept Hammarby at bay for his 10 minutes on the pitch and afterwards after saluting the fans he actaully came over to me and my father and really i chuffed about that. A player coming over after a fantastic match and my first in Sweden was not bad at all. 

Basically i hope to meet him again in 2009 but what will make next year special is that i plan to see Orebro host AIK. AIK also has Robert's brother on their books. Kevin Walker from what i see is a good player and has played for Sweden's underage sides as has Robert. 5th July 2009 i hope to be there. 

Deep House 2009

2008 was a special year for Deep House with very good tracks being released but i have to say that 2009 promises to be even better. 

Matthew Mulholland release a very good track last April called "It ain't that deep" but the title is misleading this track is very deep and fantastic. I will try and put it up on the blog soon beecause it deserves to be there. 

Moodymann will we see him on the scene in 2009? Kerri Chandler? Nikola Gala? looking forward to it and FishGoDeep will be on the scene in 2009. 

Half-way Leeds

It is just gone past the half-way mark in League 1 with my Leeds United having lets say a different start to the season. 

It started well we were picking up good wins and keeping pace with your Leicester City, MK Dons and Peterborough. But in November the wheels fell off. 

We had collected a good 34 points until November despite a couple of defeats and dogdy draws here and there but November was really the turning point. 

It is fair to say that all Leeds fans love Jermaine Beckford and he has been our weapon this season and last season as well not to forget. But when he suffered that Hamstring injury in December our form went to a dire state. Luciano Becchio was suffering from the loss of Becks and we had a miserable December. 

The 2nd week of December was really embarresing to the club. Knocked out of the F.A Cup 2nd Round by Histon!!! Histon with all due respect and i am not getting at Histon i think they are a talented side but really that was a game we should've won. We didn't and it cost us money. 

Then just before Christmas came the news that some were loving and others not. Gary McAllister was sacked. The former great of United was out and then we could dream of getting in someone with experience. 

Personally Gus Poyet would've been my choise of manager. He knew Leeds United during his time with us back in 2007-08. Aidy Boothroyd wouldn't have been a bad choise either. But to be honest i was surprised that Simon Grayson was a surprise appointment. He did well at Blackpool. 

We got our draw with Leicester and beat Stockport i was encouraged but then same old stuff again we lost we drew and lost again but in fairness we did beat Brighton 2-0 last Saturday and i know that Brighton's stadium is difficult to play on. 

But much more is needed if we are to be pushing for what we Leeds fans want. Promotion anything less in a failure.
