I loved the story last week about Chelsea starting to use Twitter to communicate directly with fans. Basically, Chelsea FC has begun Twittering (under its mascot’s name) following a huge growth in fake Chelsea FC accounts. I can imagine there are quite a few people out there who would love to hear the ins and [...]
Mike Tyson Vs Evander Holyfield all those years ago was an exciting flight albeit slightly alarming. Two of the world’s hardest heavyweights battling it out, made for interesting late night viewing. However, that was twelve years ago and this is now. Today’s Metro is reporting that they plan to do it again with these two [...]
Here is a recording of the press conference that was given by the new Newcastle FC football manager yesterday. Joe Kinnear was a surprise choice to nearly everyone, including himself as far as I can tell. In this truly shocking interview he manages to swear a whopping 52 times and asks the journalists to ‘mind [...]
Last week I noticed a couple of articles in PR Week on one of my favourite subjects – football. It has been well documented that more and more owners of Premier League clubs are now coming from foreign countries and that is bringing its own set of problems. Many of these new owners don’t understand [...]
Here is a quick story which might interest you. Hartlepool FC has decided (for commercial reasons apparently) to ban all photographers and reporters from its local paper the Hartlepool Mail. In response to this the Northern Echo, which covers most of the North East of England, thought it would help its local friend out by [...]
As a keen football fan, I was interested to read an article on Brand Republic reporting that Chelsea FC has made its website much more social. Supporters can now download widgets relating to fixtures, Chelsea TV and player feeds. There is also a new forum where fans can discuss the latest rumours etc. All of [...]
Sir Alex piped up this morning saying he isn’t worried about Chelsea as most of the team are over 30 – a typical Fergie mind game tactic. Did it work? I sincerely doubt it but I bet it made him feel a whole lot better at the press conference. He is a master of PR, [...]
Apologies to all of you who aren’t football fans but as I love football I thought I should do a quick post on what I think of the latest European championships. I have watched all the games so far and I am quite happy as I placed a £5 bet on Portugal to win the [...]
I don’t blog that regularly on football but I thought this was worth a quick post. I am a keen Liverpool fan but I love all football and enjoy watching most teams – no matter what level. Usually I have to take the regular journey out to the local pub to watch the best games [...]
I have just received the attached video by email, which Seb and I thought was very cool. A big thanks goes to Mr Justin McKeown for supplying it and brightening up my day. I always like to see football being played well – probably because I play like Bambi on ice. None of us can [...]
