THE cost of Football is becoming outrageous, writes PHIL BLUNDELL. I say ‘becoming’ but — if we’re being honest — we’re already past that point. I remember us refusing to take the full allocation at Chelsea in 2004 when it was announced they...
WE are all the same. I am you. You are me. We are all just sentient sacks of meat, strapped to a lump of rock by gravity, hurtling through the infinity of the cosmos, writes IAIN MACINTOSH on The Set Pieces. Ignore Nigel Farage. Ignore Katie Hopkins. Forget about...
