Crossing the north-south divide: Preston 2 Coventry 1

Posted by on Mar 22, 2011 in Uncategorized | 2 Comments

Being called love by the barmaid was a sign I was in the north; having to wait several minutes to be served was proof that she’d clocked a southerner. It was my fault for being under thirty and dressed in a cardigan. This scene took place on Saturday when, as I previewed last week, I made the journey up to Preston from London to meet a friend from Glasgow …

Cut-price entry is obviously an easy way for a club seeking strong support for a particular fixture to get more people than usual through the turnstiles and, with promotional deals likely to be a feature of West Ham’s …

Distance is relative for London’s neighbouring clubs

Posted by on Feb 4, 2011 in Uncategorized | 3 Comments
Following his recent signing from Saha From The Madding Crowd, a navigation error on the way to watch Crystal Palace unexpectedly turned William Abbs’ thoughts to the future of Leyton Orient.

“Depending on if you’re coming from Thornton Heath or Norwood Junction,” my friend’s text to me read, “you’ll approach a Sainsbury’s or a stand that I thought was a supermarket.” It was then that I realised my mistake.
