The Guardian Championship Preview

[JohnMcGreal]

'Burnley have lost their manager Vincent Kompany to Bayern Munich but with Scott Parker at the helm they should be well placed to return to the Premier League at the first attempt. If Parker’s experience of winning promotion from the second tier with Bournemouth and Fulham can only help, the signing of the Belgium winger Mike Trésor and the France Under-21 defender Maxime Estève after successful loans last season suggest those parachute payments are being invested sensibly.'

Good grief

Started to listen to their football weekly championship review earlier… but it was so bad I turned it off after about 8 minutes.

Just a genuine lack of research and knowledge.

If you want a well researched Championship 1-24 preview then check out NotTheTop20’s, I really enjoyed it (video or Spotify):

Don't forget the dangerous Wout Weghorst who goes into another Championship season in good form after the Euros.

The guardian. Enough said. A failing RAG

The guardian. Enough said. A failing RAG

It's been on the verge of 'failing' since before I was born. As a non right-wing, non tabloid newspaper it obviously is aiming at a small market of politically open minded business people. Which is why it gets slagged off so much!

Normally good quality journalism in the Guardian, provided you recognise and calibrate from its political starting point (just as you have to with all other papers). However that preview article really is as poor as they come - you’d get better on click bait nonsense sites.
