20 years ago today my brother died suddenly at age of 48. He introduced me to Palace and every time we win a trophy (of which there have been a few recently) I think of how much he would have savoured that moment. My granddaughter Stevie is named after him RIP Teamie 🔴🔵🦅

Pleasure to chat to @markpougatch on @wearetrackradio earlier about flow of British players to Italy - theguardian.com/football/202… 1/2

Why are so many British footballers playing in Serie A?

The 1990s felt like a golden age, but there are 22 British players in Serie A this season – more than ever before

So @5liveSport why is Padel so expensive in UK. Around here, NW London, it can cost £90 per hour. In Spain it costs c. €10 per hour. That’s not growing the sport.
