Stuart GrayDecember 1973January 2024Stuart Edward Gray (18 December 1973 – January 2024) was an English-born Scottish footballer. He played as a full-back for Celtic and Reading. Born in England, he won seven Scotland under-21 international caps. He hailed from a footballing family; his father Eddie, uncle Frank and cousin Andy all represented Scotland. Gray was signed to Celtic as a schoolboy S-former in 1989 and followed the route of many on to the groundstaff at 16 in 1990. He played youth and reserve team football, and was released to play for Giffnock Park North AFC. He ended the 1991–92 season close to a first team call up and won a new two-year contract. The next season marked his debut with one appearance against Aberdeen in 1992–93 but a groin strain in October curtailed his 1992–93 season. In the 1993–94 season he asked for a loan move south of the border. He spent some time on loan with AFC Bournemouth in February before returning to more reserve team action. At the end of the season he went to Canada on the post-season tournament with the senior team. Out of contract at the start of the 1994–95 season, he was wanted by Sunderland and Blackburn Rovers and signing month-to-month deals. He eventually signed a new deal on 27 January 1995 with the stated intention of leaving if he did not get more first-team football. He had a reasonable run of games and was on the verge of the full-time first-team inclusion.[citation needed] In the 1995–96 season, he won starting appearances in the latter part of the season but an ankle ligament injury proved troubling and curtailed full involvement. The 1996–97 season was troubled by a knee injury, and he ended playing most of the season with the reserves. Out of contract again, his future looked uncertain. A deal to take him to Lille fell through in the close season and he began the 1997–98 season on month-to-month deals. In October he was loaned to Greenock Morton until January 1998, being recalled from Greenock to play against them in the Scottish Cup tie on 24 January. He played a few more reserve games before being sold to Tommy Burns at Reading on 26 March 1998. Gray was loaned to Rushden & Diamonds and joined them full-time in January 2001 and released at the end of the 2004–05 season. He joined Oxford United making 10 appearances with them. He was thereafter associated with non-league side Guiseley and he coached[when?] the reserve team there, along with Vince Brockie.

David Bowie8 January 194710 January 2016David Robert Jones, better known as David Bowie, was a British musician, actor, and cultural icon whose innovative and chameleon-like artistic career spanned over five decades. Born on January 8, 1947, in Brixton, London, Bowie's impact on music, fashion, and popular culture is immeasurable. Bowie's early career in the 1960s was marked by a series of musical transformations, characterized by his distinctive voice and avant-garde approach. He achieved his first major success with the 1969 single "Space Oddity," which coincided with the Apollo 11 moon landing and established him as an artist with a unique vision. Throughout the 1970s, David Bowie continued to push boundaries and challenge conventions with a series of groundbreaking albums. His alter ego, Ziggy Stardust, became an iconic figure in the glam rock movement, and the album "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" (1972) is considered one of his greatest works. Bowie's ability to reinvent himself and explore various musical genres, from soul to funk to electronic, showcased his versatility as an artist. One of his most iconic albums, "Heroes" (1977), is celebrated not only for its music but also for its role in the history of the Berlin Wall.

He appeared in various films and theater productions, earning critical acclaim for his role in "The Man Who Fell to Earth" (1976) and his stage performance in "The Elephant Man" (1980). David Bowie's influence extended far beyond the realms of music and film. He was a trailblazer in the realm of fashion, challenging conventional notions of gender and style. His personas, from Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke, left an indelible mark on the fashion world. Bowie's career continued to evolve in the 1980s and 1990s, producing hit albums like "Let's Dance" (1983) and "Black Tie White Noise" (1993). His ability to adapt to changing musical landscapes and remain relevant was a testament to his enduring creativity. David Bowie's passing on January 10, 2016, came as a shock to the world. His final album, "Blackstar," released just two days before his death, was hailed as a poignant and innovative work.
