  on Dec 24, 2015
  Happy Christmas Christians! And to the other 67%of the UK population - and the rest of the world - I hope you're busy being merry in the best way you know how.Traditionally I like to play Santa at this time of year, bestowing my largesse on the great...
• Just say MO to Fury
  on Dec 10, 2015
  Well it's nearly Christmas time and that must mean one thing: it's time for the old 'Sports Personality! That's a contradiction in terms!' joke. Done.Except this year there's one candidate who, for reasons best known to himself, is very much a 'perso...
• Vive La France, Vive Jonah
  on Nov 20, 2015
  There's no such thing as a friendly international. It used to be the case. Nowadays they are always 'feeling out' exercises that by and large leave England supporters disarmed by futile optimism. Tuesday night at Wembley had none of that, unless...
• Spurs On The Up!
  on Nov 9, 2015
  Confession time. This might come as something of a shock to many of few. It certainly shocks me. Here it is: I’ve always had something of a soft spot for Tottenham Hotspur. What, the laughably unsuccessful neighbour of the not quite so laughingly u...

• Blue Days At The Bridge
  on Sep 16, 2015
  What a pretty Premier League picture the table paints this morning. First up, all hail Signor Ranieri and his fearless foxes. The quiet dismissal of Nigel Pearson was a bold move. Not least because Big Nige always has the bearing of a night-club boun...
• Well Done Wazza!
  on Sep 10, 2015
  Congratulations to the Pie-Faced Wonder. Wayne Rooney crashed home another penalty to see him become England's record scorer. Glenn Hoddle purred that the keeper got nowhere near it. The keeper touched it on its way in actually, Glenn, but then, with...
• Precious Stones Bound To Go
  on Aug 26, 2015
