Sport News 24/7 By David de Winter - Sports Editor @davidjdewinter @TLE_Sport The fallout from Kevin Pietersen’s imminent autobiography is unlike anything I have previously experienced. The absolute childishness and pettiness of ex-England cricketer Pietersen, the ECB, Graeme Swann and other players connected to the controversy is staggering. Accusations, name-calling, bullying – it has all the hallmarks of an argument in the school playground. The situation has got wildly out of hand. All this airing of dirty laundry in public...
Sport News 24/7 This week, Sport Editor David de Winter and Sport Columnist Richard de Winter review Europe's Ryder Cup victory, Liverpool and Manchester City's performances in the Champions League, and discuss England's qualifiers against San Marino and Estonia.
Sport News 24/7 David de Winter - Sports Editor @TLE_Sport @davidjdewinter When I was growing up, I always looked at Newcastle United with fondness. A well-run club that played football the right way and had a sizeable and passionate support – it was the envy of almost every club in the land, a team destined to dine at football’s top table for years to come. With the likes of Peter Beardsley, Rob Lee, David Ginola, Alan Shearer, Les Ferdinand and...
Sport News 24/7 By David Binder @davidpaulbinder The day was 24 May, 2003, the venue was Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium and the occasion was the Division Three play-off final between AFC Bournemouth and my team, Lincoln City. The match itself ended in disappointment with Lincoln City (or the Imps as they're affectionately known) losing 5-2, but it was the beginning of an allegiance which lasts to this day, and what a journey it’s been. Allow me to explain. The collapse of...
Sport News 24/7 By Chris Ogle In no other country in the world does the casual Saturday punter embrace the football accumulator like the UK does. In a straw poll of the nearest 15 people in my office, 14 of them had done at least one accumulator in the past four weeks. The promise of nailing thousands of pounds for a few quid tempts even the most infrequent of punters. We Brits love them and they are going nowhere in a...
Sport News 24/7 By Adam Clark @AdamClarkers Villa fans can be forgiven for a little bit of gloating as they see the Lions in 3rd place in the Premier League table. They spent all summer enduring the amusement caused by their summer signings Philippe Senderos, Kieran Richardson, Joe Cole and Aly Cissokho. It was a list of Premier League rejects, journeyman and the perennially crocked. News that chairman Randy Lerner was (and still is) looking to sell the club hardly...
Sport News 24/7 By David de Winter - Sports Editor @TLE_Sport @davidjdewinter Liverpool v Everton A Merseyside derby which takes on added significance thanks to the poor starts to the season made by both teams. Everton have the worst defence in the league so far whilst Liverpool have already lost three times and are yet to find the attacking fluency of last season. Neither team convinced during the week in the League Cup. It could be a cagey match as...
Sport News 24/7 Sports Editor David de Winter and Sports Columnist Richard de Winter discuss The Ryder Cup, The Rugby World Cup and The Premier League in their weekly sports podcast for The London Economic
Sport News 24/7 By Mike Deverell @mikedeverellEQ This weekend’s Merseyside derby could be a make or break match for Everton’s season. After only two wins all season and just one in the league, conceding 17 goals in 7 games, this could be a match that defines Martinez era Everton. If we win it could turn things around and set us up nicely for the season. Suffer a heavy defeat and a wobble fast becomes a crisis. Perhaps this is too...
