Seducer-in-chief 9:02pm on 06 Apr 2009 The risk of seduction is getting your moves wrong and getting the slap in the face. We wait and see.
Liverpool have 'the Big Mo' 11:29pm on 22 Mar 2009 It's too close to call, but at least Liverpool will make Utd worry. It's squeaky bum time again and LFC have got nothing to lose.
Benitez continues defiant approach 11:39am on 11 Jan 2009 Benitez didn't crack - he said what needed to be said. Unfortunately for him, if you are going talk the talk, your team needs to walk the walk. Yesterday, was terrible timing for a poor performance on the pitch and just when the general needed his soldiers to back him up they left him high and dry.

Typical Liverpool really.
London 2012 cuts its cloth 4:19pm on 07 Jan 2009 The olympics is a big party, a feel good factor and exposure that comes at a price.

The legacy to some people will be 6 months of eager jogging and sports facilities will be full - then it will tail off, like gym memberships in March after the January boom.

Be realistic, for something that happens once in a lifetime, I reckon £9 million is fine.

The Chancellor spent more than that by reducing VAT for a year, and look how useless that was to everyone.

The Olympics cannot be valued by a £ sign. It's much more than that, and we are lucky to have been granted temporary custody of it in 2012.
Azinger fashions US in Europe's image 7:21pm on 22 Sep 2008 Glad the US won.

It makes for a better tournament next time. The same winner each time was getting boring and lacked drama.

This Ryder Cup had everything.
Pietersen fails to complete rescue operation 10:54am on 02 Aug 2008 By the way, how anyone can criticise Pietersen for scoring 94 runs is beyond me.

It's like criticising John the Baptist for not being Jesus.
Pietersen fails to complete rescue operation 10:52am on 02 Aug 2008 Why is it that we laud players to the rafters who have been rubbish with the bat for week upon week when they come up with one good score?

One swallow doesn't make a summer. One good score doesn't make up for a summer of Colly's failures.

It was a gutsy performance, but his batting has been terrible up until yesterday. Perspective please!
The long road to Kiev 2:04pm on 08 Jul 2008 It's good that UEFA are giving these tournaments to lesser developed European nations. It's a great incentive for those governments to come up trumps and invest in infrastructure that will last for years and which would have been delayed for many more years had it not been for the pressure of hosting a Euro.

Not ideal maybe, yes there are concerns, but it is brave and UEFA could easily have taken the easy option and picked Italy.

You keep hearing about the "legacy" of the Olympics, well the Euro's have the opportunity to leave a legacy too. That's part of the package and part of what good "sport" can achieve in the widest sense.

It's over to you, Ukraine. Your move.
