T.O. just too risky
Posted on 4:22pm Thursday 11th March 2010
The Bengals looked at Terrell Owens to boost their receiving corps but seem to have chosen Antonio Bryant instead. It's the right move.

Farewell then, Five
Posted on 4:50pm Thursday 14th January 2010
Five has been the home of the NFL on terrestrial television for more than a decade but sadly it seems small hour touchdowns (and those Monday morning matchsticks) are a thing of the past.

Grown up Bengals ready for play-offs
Posted on 5:11pm Thursday 7th January 2010
Back at the start of September I predicted my team, the Cincinnati Bengals, would win only six or seven games at best this season. For once I'm happy to have been proven totally and utterly clueless. It's time for a blog....

New season, new predictions
Posted on 4:23pm Thursday 10th September 2009
As millions wait in excited anticipation of the new NFL campaign it's the perfect time for a pre-season preview and some "expert" predictions.

OH RICKY YOU’RE SO FINE.................................
Posted on 2:59pm Wednesday 5th August 2009
The game of Cricket is under going significant change, and not just on the field. The fall out from the welcome afforded to Australian Captain Ricky Ponting by certain sections of the Edgbaston crowd at the weekend has got some observers rather hot under the collar. Does the game have to accept the changing demographic of its audience or is it just not Cricket?

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
Posted on 2:11pm Wednesday 22nd July 2009
The trials and tribulations of Halesowen Town Football Club have been extensively documented by this newspaper and website, and I’m sure that I don’t stand alone in hoping for a speedy and satisfactory outcome leading to the continued existence of one of the most historic non-league clubs in the area. But the grave situation at the Grove has given rise to a most welcome response from the supporters and local community.

PULL SHOTS, POMMIES AND PORK PIES
Posted on 12:18pm Tuesday 14th July 2009
Despite a poor performance from the home side, the first Ashes test climaxed with tension and excitement that echoed the last meeting on these shores in 2005. With the ECB selling the TV rights to the highest bidder, it was back to the wireless for me and a re-acquaintance with the wonderful world of TMS.

DOUBLE JEOPARDY FOR SETANTA
Posted on 7:56pm Wednesday 24th June 2009
A couple of months have passed since my last entry on here. In that time the Football Season finished, the FA Cup was won, Jensen Button continued to dominate F1 and Tony Mowbray gave it the old “do as I say, not as I do” when leaving the Baggies. In amongst this a sad, slow death occurred, that of the UK wing of satellite broadcaster, Setanta. But is this surprising, or are TV companies underestimating the viewer?

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLAY WILL CONTINUE.
Posted on 9:39pm Sunday 26th April 2009
The All-England Tennis Club finally entered the 21st Century this week as the most significant part of the Wimbledon’s re-development was unveiled. Ushering in a new era at SW1, this latest addition will mean we wave goodbye to endless rain-delays and early stoppages on Centre Court. But on closer inspection, a vital part of what makes the Wimbledon Championships so special may be lost. And I don’t mean a sing-song with Cliff.

THE BIGGEST DERBY IN THE COUNTRY
Posted on 9:15am Sunday 12th April 2009
Well, the southern Black Country anyway. Easter Monday sees the renewal of rivalries between Stourbridge and Halesowen at Amblecote, as the Yeltz look to gain revenge over the Glassboys following the New Years Day defeat earlier in the season. But which is the biggest Derby in football? Is it just a question of scale?
