I should have done this last week maybe, but with the dawn of the new football year there’s been plenty of great stuff to read:
‘Tipperary teen sensation’ Kevin Coleman has started a really impressive website called Back Page Football. This year I’ll not be embarrassed in my Fantasy Football leagues thanks, largely, to this article.
The spirit of David Peace is channelled for this inspired Premier League preview at Sport is a TV Show.
Darren Norris loves Arsenal so much, he wears Perry Groves pyjamas to bed. On the Examiner sportsdesk blog he reflects on the Gunners’ spanking of Everton this weekend.
While south London’s Andy Fifield went west to peer through the gates at Stamford Bridge before posting this blog by standing outside a fashionable Fulham Road cafe to steal the wi-fi. Probably.
ESPN ‘Sports Guy’ Bill Simmons has his view of the world game redefined by a trip south of the border for the Mexico-USA game last week. Check it out here.
And in other news, Eoin Butler meets Traveller bareknuckle boxing champion, turned Evangelical Christian preacher Dan Rooney.
Dog fighting enthusiast Michael Vick is out of the Big House and now playing for the Philadelphia Eagles. Plenty of Sports Illustrated coverage here.
Finally, how does Usain Bolt compare with other 100m legends, you ask? Have a look at this then.
