But Clarke Carlisle&#8217;s appearance soon became of far more interest to me than his previous residence in Abbots Langley. The former Watford, now Burnley defender had been asked to appear in his position as the new Chairman of the Professional [...]

One of my peers was FIFA World Cup official Phil Sharp, although I stayed largely on the local parks. I might not have kept [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Whilst the nation celebrated Europe’s triumph and the champagne flowed at Celtic Manor, few people will have realised that the Ryder Cup was introduced by a Liberal politician. Sam Ryder was an entrepreneur and golfing enthusiast, who built his fortune by selling garden seeds in small ‘penny packets’ to ordinary households. A keen amateur golfer, [...]

		<description><![CDATA[So it&#8217;s Spurs 1 Arsenal 4 in tonight&#8217;s Carling Cup match at White Hart Lane. A brilliant debut goal from Henri Lansbury and an all-round performance from everyone except Mr Flappihandski. Had the linesman done his job properly, it would have been 0-5. But hey&#8230; The match stats are quite telling. The Gunners had more [...]

		<description><![CDATA[So Stoke manager Tony Pulis doesn&#8217;t likewhat Arsene Wenger has said about his team&#8217;s style of play and has reported the Arsenal manager to the FA. Stoke are also planning to take legal action against the Frenchman. Wenger was clearly thinking of Blackburn&#8217;s &#8216;aggressive&#8217; style of play yesterday when he criticised Stoke&#8217;s similar tactics against Spurs last week. [...]

The English have a certain affinity with the Netherlands and us football fans still think of the Dutch as the total footballers of Cruyff, the power of van Basten and, for those of use who are Gunners, the sublime silkiness of Dennis Bergkamp. But this wasn&#8217;t anything resembling [...]

It seems clear to me that most Tories were not educated at Eton and that very few Labour voters are sons of coal miners. So it&#8217;s irritating and amusing in equal measures when supporters of either party play their stereotyped role. [...]

Infidelity has become the new metatarsal, a major threat to England&#8217;s World Cup success. Now whatever your moral feelings about infidelity, it&#8217;s neither illegal, nor unusual. Not that that makes it OK. [...]

I felt as sad about Paddy&#8217;s move to Juventus as I had when Liam Brady [...]
