I was never a prisoner to my footballing status.

Some games you win, some you lose, and some you draw.

For me, football is just a game, not a drama.

Consequently, I won just about everything I set out to win, everything bar the World Cup, of course. But even now, I don't regret that, because I was part of a team which twice reached the semi-finals.

At Euro '92 itself, we bowed out to the eventual winners, Denmark, in our final group match.

You know, my role as Vice Chairman is a lot less tiring than playing matches every three days.

I was the classic midfield organiser who could also score goals.
