It’s a testament to David’s impact that his exit is trending over Hollywood stars in the stands. Football loses its true narrative when reporting is restricted; we need the edge only independent journalism provides. The industry has changed, but David’s kindness to newbies never did. Thanks Trouble!


🚨🚨🚨Some personal news 🚨🚨🚨 After 25 years, 24 of them covering @ManUtd and @ManCity, I’m leaving @DailyMirror and @MirrorFootball I’ve been privileged to cover more than 1,000 games in @premierleague, @ChampionsLeague @EuropaLeague @EmiratesFACup and @Carabao_Cup as well as reporting on six @FIFAWorldCup and three @UEFAEURO tournaments, not to mention earning at least half a dozen bans from Sir Alex Ferguson! It’s been an honour to work with so many talented and loyal colleagues, past and present, many of whom have become great friends. As one door closes, another one opens, and I’m excited to explore new professional opportunities. Thanks to everyone who has supported me and read my work over the past quarter of a century - even the haters and the trolls! Below is my final column for @MirrorFootball Cheers everyone - it’s been a blast! mirror.co.uk/sport/football…
