“I was always intrigued by management and I wish I could turn the clock...” — Jimmy Bullard Quote

I was always intrigued by management and I wish I could turn the clock back and pick the brains of each of my managers.

But in football my main aim was to become a pro. I became one and played in the first division. But then I reached the Premier League and before I knew it I was in the England squad.

I was still playing for Gravesend at 18 and it seemed that every other kid had been snapped up except me.

I know how far a fiver can go in non-League, let alone 100,000! So it is a lot of money. That money can be spread across the country to grassroots football which is fantastic. It can help them with things like electricity bills, new kits, new footballs and lawnmowers.

All I need is my brains, my eyes and my personality, for better or for worse.

In order to sharpen its prediction skills, our brains constantly build models, or 'templates,' of the world. The better the template, the better the performance. And now we know playing action video game actually fosters better templates.

We have about 100 million cells interconnected in our brains. They communicate with one another through electrical signals.

What can you conceive more silly and extravagant than to suppose a man racking his brains, and studying night and day how to fly?

I'm really interested in the new nonfiction. I think the hyper-digital culture has changed our brains in ways we cannot begin to fathom.
