In football these days, everyone HAS to have their opinion, and no one would stop that. After all, its very much part and parcel of football. Problem is, so many opinions are founded on a profound ignorance, that of exactly what the Laws of the game actually say. Premier League managers, players, coaches, whom you […]
First seen in that excellent football fanzine, ‘View from the Allotment End’ produced by the fine chaps at North Ferriby FC 100 years ago, the Scottish Football League decided, after reforming and expanding their division 2, that the time was right for a further expansion. How wrong they were… Back in the early years of […]
Back in the old days at Hull City, at the height of the Allam saga, many supporters chose to boycott the club in protest, vowing to return when the club was being run in a better manner, and under the new regime, this has happened. Then there were those who acknowledged the owners failings but […]
There are times in everyone’s life when hard decisions have to be made. When there are made because of love, they’re even harder.

Well now, today sees Shota Arveladze take his first game in charge of the Tigers, being appointed by new owner Acun Ilicali, on Thursday. This was possibly the worst kept secret in the whole of Hull, and yet there’s ‘media’ experts who were still surprised by the decision, probably based on the fact that under […]
(General sports content) And this is why there’s not as much Olympics coverage this time as in the past. The IOC have followed the example of many sports governing bodies, letting the Games hide behind what’s effectively a paywall… None of them seem to realise, that although the money is needed, wider exposure will make it more […]
