Everyone in the room was in awe ‘Bill, would you mind...

Dave boy Green v Sugar Ray Leonard..fxck me what a mid match

That kind of model will only work if you start small.(Lower division club.Or smaller League.) You can't do that at this end of the stick. Unless your'e happy wasting hundreds of millions. And Tony Bloom ain't in that business. The strategy seems simple. You rent an office, employ 20 actuaries to si...

5 points clear seem to have broken the 2 horse stranglehold on Jock fitbaw  The days of dodgy old scouts roaming parks looking for talent is long gone.  The Tony Bloom model of stats and facts is deffo the way forward, successful at Brighton and now with the Jambos. His team in Camden have info on p...

I well remember the unfancied John H Stracey going to Mexico City and, much to everyone’s surprise, putting one over Jose Napolese to win his world title.

I was in Dublin for Minnesota Vikings v Pittsburgh Steelers 2 Sundays ago.
Never had any interest in NFL but went as I’d never been to Croke Park. (And it was corporate)
Fantastic 4 hours of entertainment, great atmosphere with 40,000 yanks there. Actually enjoyed the game and may even go again

I nominate my Liverpool supporting cab driver in Belfast

he laughed when I told him my team, then typical mid 20’s asked if I supported a 2nd team near the top of the table
