My uncle Jim once told me "If you can leave your home town, your friends and your family it will open your eyes and make you a man."
Tbf I was speaking to my uncle Ben on Saturday and said that Aaron Ramsey was almost certain to be the unanimous choice for footballer of the year.
He took the glass of champagne out of my hand and said "You mean Wayne Rooney, don't you?"
I told him that he had made a very good point and promptly went home.
