Recently, I re-entered existence. By which I mean I have returned from Belgium – I don’t mean this to be offensive to any Belgians who happen to be reading this, it’s just something that might, hopefully, raise a smile from one person, a hardcore Belgium existence denier and kazoo player extraordinaire,… 
The Beatles once sang that money can’t buy you love. That may well be true, but there are plenty of things that money can buy you – a castle or an island, for example. Or a luxury yacht. Or, indeed, a whole host of international footballers. But, then again they… 
With the arrival of my fellow Blue Moon Podcaster (the mention of which deserves this completely shameless plug because there’s a brand new series coming very soon), Howard Hockin on Football FanCast shores, my usual fallback of ranting about how everybody seems to think Manchester City are ruining football… 
Excuses have been made since the dawn of time for all sorts of things. “I’m late because my sundial didn’t go off” or “The bus was late because the wheel hasn’t been invented yet” or even “A Stegosaurus ate my homework.” Of course, I’m being silly – dinosaurs and man never…

As the world turns towards England’s fortnight in the World Cup, the Premier League has taken a backseat in the papers, on the radio and on tellybox news reports. And, in a world where transfer fees are high, footballers’ wages are skyrocketing and, for some reason, the well known cutting… 
In 1973, Pink Floyd accidentally stumbled upon a trend that would become prevalent in football 37 years down the line. “Money, get away, Get a good job with more pay, And you’re okay; Money, it's a gas, Grab that cash with both hands, And make a stash; New car, caviar, four… 
With an inevitable World Cup quarter final penalty shoot-out defeat to look forward to, the end of the football season announced itself with a one-sided FA Cup final – notably where Frank Lampard proved to be at the top of England penalty taking form – and the usual damp squib of…
