"Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character."
T Alan Armstrong (born 22 February 1975 in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear) was an English professional footballer.Armstrong's first club was Newcastle United, where in October 1993 he came up from their youth team. He left in June 1994 having not played for them, and signed to Stockport County for £50,000. In 200 games for them, he scored 62 goals. In February 1998 he joined Middlesbrough for £1.6m. He stayed until 2000, when in March he joined Huddersfield Town for three months on loan. In December 2000 he joined Ipswich Town for £500,000. In the three years he was at Ipswich he scored 19 goals in 94 appearances, including a header in Ipswich's 1–0 win over Inter Milan in the 2001–02 UEFA Cup.
Kids, winning is one thing and its good but being a champion takes more than just winning tournaments. True champions always show good and proper discipline, attitude, positive and optimistic thinking, diligent and hard working, confident and courages but humble enough to inspire and be a worthy idol for their up and coming juniors.
