Michael
Owen joins the greats (Picture from BBC SPORT FOOTBALL Owen joins British greats) Well done to Michael Owen, who has become the first English footballer to win the covetted European Footballer of the Year title since Kevin Keegan in the 70's. Michael was the clear winner by 36 points over Raul of Real Madrid. The competition is run by France Football. See what 'World of Soccer Stars' players Sir Bobby Charlton and Pelé have to say about Michael.

Front Cover 10 December Next Generation Goals Another week another goals update ...
See Forest Green Online Front Covers Three next generation stars made magazine covers recently Jamie Redknapp - Harry Redknapp's son - was on the front of 8 December 2001 edition of 'Match', with the heading 'Red or Dead ! Redknapp's back for Liverpool'. Frank Lampard - Frank Lampard's son - in extreme close up covered 'The Times' Football Handbook', 8 December 2001 edition, with the heading 'Blue Lamp. What really happened that day in that hotel.' And what did happen ? Well Frank and his Chelsea mates got a bit loud in the same room as a television was showing the 11 September news. So Frank denies any real wrong doing, but accepts others may have found their behaviour insensitive. He then goes on to bemoan the down side of being a young man who has got it all, like all young footballers who don't know any different do. The article is most notable for an excellent picture of Frank by Paul Trevillion. Callum Best - George Best's son - was on the front cover of 'The Times Magazine' for 10 November 2001 (that was last month, I know ...) giving his best 'Blue Steel' look. Callum is the perfect male model with a gene pool that combines Angie Best's beauty and George's abilty to dribble, er, that's not right. Anyway, six pages of the fashion section of the supplement were given over to an interview and photo-shoot of the ruggedly handsome 20 year old. Jamie has been signed up with Marks and Spencer to do the 'Autograph' range for men. Callum sounds just a little bit whiny about his Dad's inabilty to communicate or say 'I love you' over the years. Though he did have a 45 minute conversation over the phone, recently - the longest ever. Things must have improved, as I notice he's got the same employer as his Dad and step-Mum, who are currently appearing in Marks and Spencer's Xmas advert. Callum is a big fan of football and it seems that he did have a chance to join Portsmouth when he was 18, but decided that he might just be in his father's shadow. Callum does claim to be his father's son, as he has a bad-boy image, but says he avoids being a bit of a tart with the women, by being his mother's son too, and having a 'caring' side. Ahhh... Incidentally,
the article's photographs were taken by Mike Owen ! Jamie's wife, Louise - Harry Redknapp's daughter -in-law - according to her official site, is appearing on SMTV every Saturday, through December, whatever SMTV happens to be. She's on with 'Cat', though I don't think this is Peter Bonetti... Her last single, 'Stuck in the Middle With You' is getting renewed play in Bob 70-71 Villas as it is included on Now That's What I Call Music 50. So far it's been No 1 of the UK's compilation chart for the 3 weeks of it's release, doing a tad better that Louise's own greatest hits compilation, which ducked out of the regular album charts after just 5 weeks. The single of 'Stuck in the Middle...' hung around for a very respectable 9 weeks. 5 December Next Generation Update Lots of Next Generation Goals to catch up on ...
