That’s Entertainment (And Everton plan stadium move)
This Saturday, before the Blackburn game, we will hear a watershed announcement for Everton Football Club.
Last Saturday, whilst the table toppers were losing at Reading, I was sat watching a fantastic musical about the Wicked Witch of the West from the Wizard of Oz. ...Read More
A Tale Of Two City’s
Many of us are still pinching ourselves as we reflect on what can only be described as an unthinkable end to the opening week of the season. Everything imaginable has happened with dreams realised and extinguished in one swift week in English football. What agony. What...Read More
First Day Blues (Plus Ça Change)
And so it went… Saddened and shocked by the premature death of Anthony H Wilson, who was probably more responsible than Morrissey for putting the M in Manchester, a bad night’s sleep on Friday led me to the first day of the season.
Optimism, sunshine, Sky Sports N...Read More
The Baby’s Not Yours (Stevie G)
I was recently awoken by a text from the esteemed editor of the English Football Post asking for my all-time XI from the English league. It was the first day of the summer holidays (being a teacher does have its benefits) and I’d had a really great weekend so maybe was...Read More
Pre-seasonal Tension
After what has seemed like an eternity, with no World Cup or Euro’s to numb the pain, the football season is finally upon us once again. Having survived purely on frenzied transfer speculation and meaningless pre-season friendlies or competitions such as The Emirates...Read More
Bloody hell, football (In the Northwest)!
It’s been a funny old Summer.
Teams up and down the West Coast Mainline are in the main quite content, some ecstatic, and would you believe Liverpool were one of only two of our teams to end the season with relative disappointment. Naturally, I didn’t enjoy that m...Read More
Fergie to make amends at United?
In the uncharacteristic warmth of last April, I crammed into a smoky Manchester boozer and watched on in fascination as Ferguson’s latest assault on Europe came to yet another premature end. As Milan substitute Gillardino raced clear to score the decisive third goal,...Read More
Ahhhhh Leeds!
It’s now 15 years since Leeds won the Championship. Much has happened since 1992 - just ask John Major. Fashions come and go, tastes change (look at Shakespeare’s Sister: improbably, they spent eight weeks at No 1 in the early part of that year) and Leeds United co...Read More
Is Roy Keane the President of Iran?
A year is certainly a long time in football. 12 months ago Sunderland sank to ever-greater depths than what they achieved in the 2005-06 season when they beat their own dismal record to become the worst team in Premiership history for the second time. New owner & s...Read More

Our Friends In The North
It’s been a sh** summer here in Newcastle …… Primarily because the long drawn out close season hasn’t been buoyed by a World Cup or European Championship but also because the months of June & July mean The Toon becomes infested by Stag & Hen Parties…

The White Rose
Intriguing times for Yorkshire football. And when I say intriguing, I mean grim. No club in the top-flight again, two clubs (Rotherham and Leeds) within a whisker of going bust this summer, and Sheffield United so desperate to get back into the Premier League they’re...Read More

Heart Of The Nation
The Midlands is a region steeped in history; yet one still struggling to redefine itself after the carnage left by a decline in industry; & a region recuperating from a footballing depression.
Fans of Wolves, Forest & Villa are still scratching their heads in ...Read More
Capital Punishment
A London blog started by Luke Bryson.
So the season is finally here and a typically dramatic opening weekend saw a number of eye-opening results involving the capitals teams. As usual more questions were raised and probably more problems exposed than solved.
