England's twelfth man - now playing for the opposition
VOF 30/03/07
"Not for a long, long time have the England management and players needed their twelfth man more than they will do over the coming months, and if they are going to make Euro 2008 they will have to show the same sort of teamwork off the pitch that they also need to show on it"

Lucas’ lucre
VOF 26/01/07
"If Neill’s ego needed massaging as he chose which club to leave Blackburn for, his bank balance must have required significant augmentation before he felt appreciated enough to join West Ham"
+
A parting of the ways?
VOF 19/01/07
"Even from the beginning of this owner-manager relationship, critics pointed to the pitfalls of their union and then just waited for the day when the cracks began to appear between these two big personalities"
