Brian Clough: 'People go to Brighton for various reasons. For a holiday, for a day-trip, to retire, for a Tory Party conference... You don't go there for the football. Brighton is not a big club and is never likely to be.' You could have Mourinho in his pomp down at Brighton, and he wouldn't do...

£600! I don't think I'm ever going to buy a new driver again.

The main reason I would put McIlroy above the others is the grand slam. And other than a couple of months in 2021, he's also been in the top 10 (OWGR) consistently now for over 15 years.

Yep. Loads of players have had purple patches where they look like the best in the world, but it often only lasts a few months. Dustin Johnson, Koepka, Rahm, De Chambeau, Thomas, etc. And all of these in fairness have dominant spells that seem to come back, but they don't seem to be able...

I'm always surprised when spinners in cricket retire so early. Warne got to 37 when he retired from test cricket, but he was still an absolute menace. I honestly think that he could have gone on for another 4 or 5 years at the top, and would still be taking wickets. He never had a run up, but...

Obviously this is a few years ago, but I take it you have heard of a chap called George Foreman?

The difference of course is that the fitness isn't as important in golf. If he can walk around for 4 days and swing the club approximately 280 times, then he's fit enough. And of course, it just so happens that Singh is a bit of a fitness freak anyway. And a practice freak too. It is one of the...

PS I think it is a fantastic pod but I think I would prefer if it was Cotter and Carter as the hosts, with a different pro each week. That won't happen of course but there we go.

He has to put aside about 1-2hr each week for a telephone call. If he is on the road, this will be from a hotel room. If he's at home, it will be a from a spare room. He doesn't do any research beforehand and he doesn't do any editing afterwards. As an aside, I find him quite annoying at...

It is most definitely cheating. I think that every single player that partakes in this should be DQ'd and have their winnings redirected straight to my bank account.

I'm aware of sales and outlet stores. Adidas Originals so far at least, seemingly have some sort of price controls on them. I think the lowest I've seen a polo for is £48, which is still too much imo.

On the price of polo shirts... I would love one of those Adidas Originals polos, as they look great. But they're also £60... I just can't see that a polo shirt can ever be worth that much. Of course, lots of people disagree and they will happily pay that much. It just seems a bit mad to me...

Black Friday is a massive lie these days. It's a real shame as when it first started up in this country (approx 15ish years ago), you could find some really good offers.

I get the argument that winning away is hard, so those captains should be given a pass... But... Again, Faldo. If you read up on that week, Faldo didn't appear to really take the job too seriously and as mentioned, many of that Euro team have subsequently come and criticised his management...

Harsh to include James and Watson, imo. James very nearly got an unexpected win. He should have definitely given one or two players a rest and tried out the rookies, but virtually no one was saying that on Saturday night with the lead that they had. Fun fact - George W. Bush (future US...
