The Don of Elland Road
I enjoyed researching the statistics for my Don Revie print. It shows every player to represent Leeds United while he was the manager from 1961 to 1974. Information on appearances and goals is included for every player. In 13 years, he picked only 75 players. If you are interested in buying a print, visit my On A Six Pence website.
Each image is a high quality giclée print, on a luxurious heavy weight Hahnemühle fine art paper. The print size of the image is 30*40cm.

The Chemical Answer
Just in case, you could not guess yesterday's riddle, below is a large clue! The image is my visual tribute to Arsene Wenger showing every player to represent Arsenal in his 15 full seasons at the club. Appearance and goal information is included for each player. Each image is a high quality giclée print, on a luxurious heavy weight Hahnemühle fine art paper. I am printing a Limited Edition of 60 standard prints of Wenger 15.
One of my prints is displayed at the Arsenal’s Media and Education Centre! The prints are available at www.onasixpence.bigcartel.com

The Professor of Philosophy - Part I
This is a lovely story told by a top Premier manager. Guess the manager.
A promising piano player attends a performance of a great virtuoso. Afterwards the novice approaches the concert pianist and says "I would give my life to play like you." To which the pianist replies, "That's what I have done."
