THE more we find ourselves holed up in homes and lassoed by lockdown, the more the idea that football is inconsequential looks ever more daft. When placed side by side with living or dying, then of course there are no comparisons. Everything is on hold now with very...
STATUS and standing can often be seen as dirty words in the day-to-day business of life. If you’re talking about yourself in relation to either you’re likely teetering perilously close to a “don’t you know who I am” situation. And who would want that? In football...

WRITE about your favourite player. That should be easy enough, right? And yet, it’s not. Not for me, anyway. Because there have been ages and stages. Go all the way back, to way back when, and the kid with a big barnet and short trousers was starry-eyed about Kenny...
