The Indian Open and Northern Trust

I can hardly wait for Steve Palmer’s column next Sunday as he predicted the winner of the Indian Open (Arabant Lahiri) and his pick on the USPGA. Dustin Johnson lost in the play off to James Hahn. Johnson just needed to sink a 10 foot putt to win, no doubt costing Steve many bags (thousands). [...]

Albion assessed: Brighton 4 Birmingham 3

After grinding out two away goalless draws at Cardiff and Sheffield Wednesday the last thing we expected at the Amex was a seven goal thriller. It would have been nice if one of the four goals came from a striker but it was Teixeira and Calderon, two midfielders, who scored. Inigo Calderon is a [...]

A la Colthard/the restaurants of Lewes

The last and only time I was in Lewes must have been 15 years ago en route to Glyndebourne. Olly and I were going to the opera with some clients of his and Daffers was on her best behaviour as we boarded a routemaster bus the men in black tie and us ladies in our finery which took us to the famous [...]

Spurs 1 Fiorentina 1

I was happy to be back in London on a cold windy night warmed by a pleasing performance bŷ the Viola at White Hart Lane. My father used to speak of the Spurs double team at a time when Fiorentina were Serie A second or champions for 5 seasons and also one of the best teams in Europe. Indeed [...]

Travelling in Brighton

Yesterday I took the number 7 bus into the centre of Brighton. Every bus in Brighton is named after a famous resident of the city. One is named after the deceased painter and sculptor Eric Gill who is the grand uncle of Polly. There was some controversy as it is said that Eric Gill allegedly had [...]

Brian Glanville

After reading Alan Tanner’s report on Fulham’s defeat by Ipswich I perused that of Brian Glanville in The Sunday Times on that game. It made much the same points as Alan: players picked put of place, poor defending, lack of width. I then turned to another Sunday sports section and all [...]

The weekend’s golf

One of the features of the European Golf so far this year has been the inability of players to defend their lead in the final day. Much to the chagrin of Steve Palmer (and therefore me at 10% of his stake) it happened yesterday as his pick the Thai Thongchai Jaidee looked certain to take the title [...]

The Tanner Report

Without a win a month and a defeat once again to a top six team we are creeping ever closer to the relegation zone. Next week’s visit to Millwall is going to be crucial. Our real problem is one of defensive organisation. Both goals conceded in the first half were soft and Mick McCarthy knew [...]

Arsenal 2 Leicester City 1

Yesterday I journeyed up from Brighton on the train with my neighbour at the Amex Jack to see Arsenal play Leicester City. Leicester did have a Brighton connection as our two best players last season Ulloa and Upson now wear their blue colours. Jack, despite following Brighton for 62 years and [...]
