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 at school with son of one of Terry Lawless trainers, Frank Black, about a week after Stracey won that title he brought Stracey over the Le...

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

Nice to see Diouf outpace that shithouse Tarkoski for the cross at the Dick of the Dock

We fought on the wrong team.

I met him in the LA Marriott, Fury was staying there for the 1st Wilder fight.

As it is I'll park letting Kudas go and the thousands of micro-fuck ups our idiot chairman has committed to make us a laughing stock. Fuck Sullivan, fuck Nayef, fuck Kudas (we've got Summerville) until at least Tuesday.   Kudus had an explosive 1st 2 games then yesterday went back to being the play...

Only 4 pts from the top

Swiss

Djurgården FC (were Swedish Champions in 2004 when I arrived) - As I worked and lived in Stockholm for 3 years. 

September 1986 I took my Swedish colleagues to the Rasunda stadium, Sweden v England and one Tony Cottee made his debut for the national team

I can go back to Moore and best but the one that stands out is Tevez. He’d signed with Macherano and it was a slow start , we played Brighton in the cup, they were championship but he was outstanding 

Highlight of the evening was seeing the idiot getting a slap and kicked out for jumping up when they equalised

I stayed after the final whistle in 111 and the amount of Tourists rushing down to the corner was just fucking depressing

20 year old kid is the real deal, Whyte is washed up but the rest of the top heavyweights won’t fancy taking him on

Heard that it Was Fullkrug going radio rental, fists flying and Potter getting the fxck out to do his post match presser
