Coming, Going And Staying Put

Steve Coppell announced yesterday he is staying at Reading FC for next season. Bit of a no-brainer really that one. There aren't many clubs that get relegated but the owner, team and most of the fans want the manager to stay on. He's done some really good work at Reading: taking them from a middle ranked team in the Chamionship to 8th in the Premiership in the 06/07 season. Not a bad record in my book. Let's hope the new season will be a good one.

Also yesterday Russell T Davis has announced he is to step down as Executive Producer of Doctor Who from next year. Davis is widely acknowleged for being responsible for the success of the new series but has said he is now looking forward to being once again a fan and viewer.


Award winning writer Steven Moffat will take over for series 5, set to be screened in 2010. Moffat already has a number of acclaimed Doctor Who scripts under his belt, including The Empty Child and The Girl in the Fireplace (Hugo awards for each) and Blink (Bafta award 2008).
