When I worked in New York, I led the Bravo account. I worked on Real Housewives, Vanderpump Rules, and Below Deck. As a red-blooded man of sport, I went into the job pretending I was taking one for the team. ‘This nonsense isn’t for me’ Then I started watching the shows. The storylines started to… Read more »

Let’s be honest here, that was quite the weekend, right? Liverpool played Chelsea in a leggy League Cup semi-final that went into extra time.

You can’t sugarcoat this one; we didn’t perform to the level of post-Dubai 2024. We didn’t… Read more »

Mikel Arteta delivered a pretty sober press conference before our first Champions League last 16 in 7 years. He paid respect to Porto as a team, as a historic club, and as a competitor. It was pretty clear that he is very much aware this young team could take the game lightly and find themselves… Read more »
