Long overdue I think, better than bundling all sorts into the Leeds and non league thread. I see, after all the speculation, Graham Potter has just left Swansea to join Brighton, signing a 4 year deal. I know everyone wants to progress in their career / life and the lure of the Premier League would be big...

This pretty topical and fortunately getting lots of press because of the plight of Dulwich Hamlet FC, there are lots of great things about Hamlet, they get massive support for step 3 (the 7th tier of English Football) gates often North of 1500 generally a good gate at that level is 300-450. It is a genui...

Mo Farah
(Preview)
Just wondering if anyone else watched the documentary about Mo Farah this evening. A truly remarkable story about how he was trafficked into the UK as a child, held captive in domestic servitude, forced to use a different name - his real name is Hussein Abdi Kahin - and how he eventually forged a life f...

Gutted to see squash lose out on getting into the Olympics, and to breakdancing of all crazy things. For anyone interested, the PSA World Championships are being played this week, with the Grand Central Station at Chicago hosting the main matches and final stages. http://worldsquashchamps.com...

Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano

Congrats to Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano on selling out Madison Square Garden (still for me the iconic tennis venue!) and producing a classic. Looks like they will go again at Croke Park Dublin. Seminal moment for womens boxing and possibly in womens sport.

Well, after a couple of weeks action, we have a medal now as the GB mens curling team get to the final of the team curling event. It is a very moorish sport to watch, I enjoyed the tactics immensely today. And GB women are in the semis, after winning a last ditch match today and then having all the results fa...

French media and ( significant numbers of ) crowds - BOO to you back ! Put up anything, just anything, with some credibility or shut up. Sky's sheer professionalism ( not meant as any sort of euphemism ) is not a crime. Guess Chris Froome just doesn't ride for such an err renowned team as Astana, the team o...

This is now becoming very real with the announcement of almost all the squads yesterday, with THREE home nations involved out of four it seemed entirely appropriate to start a separate thread.

Bit of a taboo subject, and I was looking to bump an old thread rather than create a new one, but couldn't even find a horse racing thread of any sorts, so perhaps not, but is anyone having any punts / much interest in Cheltenham this year? SkyBet are doing their £10 refunded as cash on the first race tomorr...

Vuelta Espana

Another great grand tour event , Hugh Carthy of Britain won today's stage and is 3rd with a week left. Probably wont win but on the back of Geoghegan Hart winning in Italy, britain still has some talented cyclists in the post Froome and Thomas era.

Anyone been watching this? Unfortunately the great man Dennis Ovens was just knocked out. The upside of this is the draw is now wide open for an unknown to come through the draw. The young prospect Phillip Taylor has had some success in recent years and might fancy his chances now Ovens is gone, whilst t...
