Harry Redknapp And The Tax Man

UK Sports BlogFootball

You’ve got to love Harry Redknapp, if there’s one manager in the Premier League that guarantees you an honest assessment of a game it’s honest Harry. If only he’d be so open about some of the other wheeler dealings in his footballing life then maybe Harry wouldn’t be up in front of the tax man.

A Sad Week For Motorsport?

UK Sports BlogMotorsport

I was never a big fan of Indy Car racing, I never saw the skill in it but if you have a lot of excellent drivers telling you how difficult it is then you have to take notice. The concentration required to run in close formation at speeds of over 220mph is apparantely enormous. Dan Wheldon was highly respected a long time before he made his way into Indycar, once there he gained many fans being one of the best drivers in recent years. His death has had a major impact on the sport and we’ll likely see all sorts of new regulations to make it safer but at the end of the day motorsport will always be dangerous.

UK Sports BlogFormula 1

Watching Live Football Online – The Future

UK Sports BlogFootball

About 5 years ago I was sat in the pub watching the football, it was a Saturday afternoon and as is tradition in certain parts of the world there are supposed to be no live Premier League matches broadcast. That was except for one pub which had gone to the trouble of picking up a feed from a foreign satellite, the pub was packed. Everybody was having a good time and taking full advantage of watching a game that they usually wouldn’t be able to see. However it did get me thinking, if the pub could watch live football from a foreign country would it not be possible for me to do the same from my home? After much searching with Google it was fairly obvious that there were plenty of people looking to solve the same problem.
