Speaking during a forum with Scandinavian supporters' club, United-Supporteren, Solskjaer said he had known the staff through the years since he was a player and now found it a little odd to be addressed by who he was.

"[Carrington receptionist] Kath was the first person I saw when I came here," he said.
"Then I met the staff who've been here since I was a player. They started calling me 'boss.' I told them: 'Stop that. My name is Ole. Call me Ole'. We've worked together and known each other for so many years. I didn't want them to call me boss," he added.

Since his arrival at the club, the Norwegian tactician has created a relaxed mood, away from the tension that was building up during Jose Mourinho's days at the club.

Upon his return as manager in December, the United legend gifted the club's receptionist of 50 years Kath Phipps a bar of Norwegian chocolate.

His relatively polite approach at Old Trafford has seen the dressing room emerge more united and happy.

The former Molde manager has not lost a single match since taking over from Mourinho and is said to be in line to replace the permanently in the summer.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism.

The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
