I do enjoy a moral…
Blackburn and Tottenham must do better to deserve European football
Blackburn Rovers’ hopes of UEFA Cup football next season took a hit when they were held to a 1-1 draw by Tottenham.

Abbey Clancy wants you, and how to make some money this weekend
The inimitable (we’re running out of adjectives) betting expert Gerry McDonnell gives his take on this weekend’s FA Cup action, Premier League action and all the other action he loves watching on the telly.

David Bentley – not as good as David Beckham
“David Bentley is David Bentley, he ain’t bloody Maradona.” Those were the words of Reading’s Irish midfield player Stephen Hunt after the 0-0 draw with Blackburn on Saturday. “He plays for England and hype comes with England.

Premier League Predictions: Manchester United to beat Liverpool, Chelsea – Arsenal to draw, Newcastle United, Tottenham, Everton and Aston Villa to win
Gerry McDonnell returns with his weekly betting column on the English Premier League. Even though I was brought up as a Catholic, I have never followed a spiritual path.

Gerry McDonnell returns with his weekly betting column on the English Premier League. There’s life in the old dog…unfortunately Like Wayne Rooney, I’m a lover of the old. I’m never happier than when some wrinkled old seaside-bungalow hogger is regaling me with tales of a bygone age. If my old man is to be believed,…
Weekend Predictions: Liverpool to beat Newcastle, Tottenham to beat West Ham, Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Everton to win
Like Martin Luther King and Gandhi, I’m a fan of passive resistance; but there are some things in life that we have to fight for. For me, it’s a baby’s smile, the love of a mute woman or more affordable prices at the petrol pump. It’s to my deep and lasting regret that a serious…
