Almost forty eight hours without the internet but I am surprisingly calm as I walked through the front door at exactly 11pm last night. There was no question that I was going to jump on the computer as soon as I could but I did not feel the same level of withdrawal symptoms as I […]

It is difficult to describe how I felt when I heard the news late into Monday evening on Five Live. While it was an end of an era in British television broadcasting, it was also the end of a part of my childhood. Some of the youngsters out there may be shocked to discover that […]

This may surprise you but I tend to prefer to watch football in two places. In the comfort of my own sofa, at home. Or at the ground (Highbury and soon Ashburton Grove). I have only ever watched one game in pub group environment. (While you recover from the shock, let me explain). It was […]
