The US PGA

Brooks Koepka won his third PGA trophy – known as the Wanamaker – and therefore became the first LIV Player to win a Major. There are some, like Colin Mongomerie and Lee Westwood, that have never won a Major and others who are unlikely to win a further one (Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and [...]

Bliss: Sussex v Glamorgan (3rd day)

Sometimes in life you are exactly where you want to be and yesterday it was at the County Ground Hove. In the week I had two tiring and trying trips to London and just wanted a relaxing day at the cricket in the sun with a pint of Harvey’s. It mattered not that Glamorgan fought back – with [...]

Sussex v Glamorgan (1st day)

With the sun out and the icy wintry wind of late turning into a cooler breeze where better to be than at Hove for the first day of the county championship?

Brighton 1 Everton 5

It does not often happen that a side has 78% of the possession and a corner count of 15 to 1 but finishes up at the wrong end of a 5 goal thrashing but that was the fate of Brighton last night. In fairness Everton played extremely well – from keeper Jordan Pickford who defied a potential [...]

Brighton & Sussex Update

When Alexis Mac Alister converted a penalty in the 98th minute to win against Manchester United last Thursday I suspect the reaction was one of sweet revenge as a penalty shoot out in the semi-final of the FA Cup on April 24th cost Brighton the chance of a final. Few would then thought and – [...]

The Tanner Report: Liverpool 1 Fulham 0

Fulham have now lost 7 of their last 9 games but this does not tell the whole story as the performances have been competent and the results tight. Last night it took a penalty awarded by the feckless Stuart Attwell – a weak referee – which would not have been awarded outside Anfield to [...]
