Happy December

It’s that time of the year, and once again, I have absolutely no idea how Christmas crept up so quickly. Anybody who knows me will be fully aware of how excited I get about this time of year… and this time around is no different. … However… Before all that jolliness, I would like to…

All Eyes On Moyes

Today is the big day. West Ham face Watford away and we need to make a statement and start distancing ourselves from the relegation zone. While in the ideal world you wouldn't hire the guy who came 20th last season to save West Ham from a potential relegation battle, Sunderland are now at the bottom…

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…

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…

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…

Premier League Preview

As the week draws to an end, all eyes are on this weekend’s Premier League fixtures. Amongst the excitement of a Merseyside derby, the stakes are high for managers, teams and players. Both Slaven Bilic and Arsene Wenger look to secure their future at their respective clubs this weekend. With the pair facing criticism, the…

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…

My internet story

The internet is a funny thing, but I think I’m just about getting my head around it. From being picked on at school to hitting 50k followers on Twitter, I’ve had my ups and downs with using the internet, but wouldn’t change a thing. As a kid with a mother who hated technology, I was…
