Farewell Bilic

I've stayed relatively quiet on the whole Bilic 'in or out' argument, but thought I'd take the opportunity to comment, given today's announcement. I don't think I've wanted anybody to succeed as much as I have with Bilic, but over the last month, I began to realise he had to go if we were going…

The week that didn’t

Some weeks go to plan. This was the week that didn’t. I have been struck down in the prime of life (or the pribe ob libe for any Friends fans reading this). Last week ended well, I had the Friday feeling but suddenly caught something more than the Friday feeling… a chest infection. Feeling horrific…

RideLondon

First I'd like to say a huge thank you to all who've supported me on my cycles for the British Heart Foundation! So far, we've raised £335 with the London to Brighton and the 50 mile off-roader. However, we've hit a little hurdle and I've had to defer my RideLondon place until next year. Having…

HarryPotter20

Harry Potter turns 20 years old, which makes me feel very old. I’ve grown up reading and watching Harry Potter, genuinely believing at one point I was had been selected to attend Hogwarts. How exactly did this happen? Let me explain. My Auntie used to work for Warner Brothers and told me of this book…

Healthy Mindset

There’s been a lot of talk about mental health recently, and something I think is enormously important is to have people to speak to about how you feel, whether you’re having a great or a terrible day. We live in an age where most things are instant. If we want something, we can get it…

The Premier League Hokey Cokey

This season, more than ever, there has been an outcry for the sacking of managers. From Bilic to Wenger, fans aren’t happy and are making it increasingly clear across social media. Always interested in hearing what everyone has to say, I conducted some very official research in the form of two Twitter polls, taken a…

Mexico’s influence on European football

Javier Hernandez, more commonly known as “Chicharito”, secured his status as one of Mexico’s greats having scored against Costa Rica in the World Cup qualifiers on Friday. But while the 28-year-old levelled Jared Borgetti’s record of 46 goals for his country, it was not only fans’ love for Hernandez which shone out, but Mexico’s passion…

Lincoln City… FA Cup Heroes

9,000 lucky Lincoln City fans will make the 3-hour trip down south to support their club in the first FA Cup Quarter-Final they have reached since the club was founded. Lincoln City are living a fairy-tale after beating the likes of Oldham, Ipswich, Brighton and even Burnley to get where they are. The club have…

New Year, New Venture

What a year it has been! 2016 has certainly been eventful, and 2017 brings the excitement of having absolutely no idea what will happen. Fingers crossed it’ll have a few less horrific surprises than the last 12 months though! This time last year, I had no job after travelling and was desperately looking to get…

Why I love/hate media

Media is incredible. We have the ability to access information within seconds from anywhere in the world. Promoting, educating and sharing are just a few of the great things media brings. With the click of a button, we’re posting a thought, idea or replying to somebody else’s comment, and it’s as easy as that. Unfortunately,…
