    Hey Tim

    As football fans , many of us dream of being footballers like Pele and Maradona (the legends), thats okay, but I think its time we learn a few lessons from those little kids on the street in India , with their goalposts made of sticks and bricks and their old white shirts with 'Beckham' written on it with Felt Tip Pens.

    thanks for reading & hope you feel the same way about football as I do

    Hi Tim,

    Yes most of the dubai sports city is done. Its brilliant isn't it? I've applied for a few jobs over there, if i can't get an internship. Its opened up i think. Can't wait to see the big games there, Our sheikh is very interested in Liverpool , and in buying them. I think the team was here once, hopefully we'll see them pretty soon.

    Thanks alot btw,

    The Underestimated Importance of Football Agents

    For some the roles of agents keep football the billion pound industry it is across the world today.

    For others agents are unnecessary commodities that suck millions of pounds out of the game each year at the expense of the sport. Which Side do you sit on?

    Be sure to leave your opinion Tim!

    Hey Tim

    I know I have always stood firmly in my belief that Cristiano is highly over rated, and very immature. Recently , I've seen alot of change in him.
    Here's an attempt at convincing MYSELF, that he's not such a bad person after all...
    The more he matures , the less I will hate him...
    So here's a peace offering for the last four years , for all the mean things I've said about him, I might still not like him a lot, but I hate him much less after writing this article

    Hey Tim,

    I'd be absolutely delighted if you could do the Arsenal in South Africa article.. you can do it whenever you want.. even next - there's really no order in which these things are going to be published.

    Looking forward to reading it!
