http://nickygervais.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 29 November 2009. BBC Sports Personality of the Year. Although we still have another month of jam packed sporting action to come its already that time of the year where one of the most prestigious award ceremonies begins to come to the forefront of our minds. It is of course the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award and yet again our country has been blessed with dozens of high-class performances spanning a high number of sports. Most comprehensive sporting awards event in this country at least.

Hitting the Fans: March 2010
http://nickygervais.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 28 March 2010. Lampard's Professionalism Going Unnoticed. In sport consistency is key to any success, and in Frank Lampard, Chelsea have a player whose reliability is as undeniable as it is astonishing. Lampard reached 20 club goals for the 5. Season in a row, after scoring four goals, two of which were penalties, against Aston Villa on Saturday. Gone are the days that saw England fans use Lamaprd as the scapegoat for their inability to qualify for the European Championships in 2008. While at Wes...

Hitting the Fans: Race for fourth could set precedent
http://nickygervais.blogspot.com/2010/05/race-for-fourth-could-set-precedent.html
Wednesday, 5 May 2010. Race for fourth could set precedent. While this evening’s battle for fourth place in the Premiership and that final elusive Champions League spot intrinsically surrounds Manchester City and Tottenham Hotsphur, in truth the result could well affect the remainder of the division just as much. Blackburn Rovers and more recently Chelsea have seen daft amounts of money thrown at them in a quest to topple the best domestically and abroad and the success has since been littered. It speaks...

Hitting the Fans: February 2010
http://nickygervais.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, 26 February 2010. Bridge's Announcement Disguising Deeper Issues. Wayne Bridge’s declaration that he will effectively end his international career may have pulled the personal issue between himself and John Terry to the forefront of our minds again, but in truth its contributed to cover up a greater problem in the selection of England’s world cup squad. However the progression of James Milner this season has been nothing short of fabulous. When everyone is fit at the Emirates Arsene Wenger uses W...

Hitting the Fans: June 2009
http://nickygervais.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, 20 June 2009. Lions Set To Rue Missed Chances. After 65 minutes of the opening test in this years Lions tour you could have been forgiven for thinking South Africa were cruising as they drew nearer to a 1-0 lead in the series. The Spring Boc’s were beginning to pound the weak Lions attack, and having just taken off fly half Ruan Pienaar an air of invincibility and arrogance crept into the World Champions spirit. With that single score the home side saw their opportunity to claw back the initiat...

Hitting the Fans: npower Championship prediction
http://nickygervais.blogspot.com/2010/08/npower-championship-prediction.html
Wednesday, 4 August 2010. After the mass signings from north of the border Gordon Strachan appears confident he’s found the right mix for a promotion tilt. Kris Boyd is the biggest of those new names, along with Nicky Bailey, the tricky midfielder from Charlton. Have at last got the right man at the helm in Neil Warnock. The no nonsense manager is still looking to bring in Darren Ambrose from Crystal Palace, while the return of Adel Taarabt is still not yet assured. Expect a more resolute Rangers...Worke...

Transfer Watch: Downing A Villan; Young Going Nowhere
http://transferwatch.blogspot.com/2009/07/downing-villan-young-going-nowhere.html
It's that time of year again. Thursday, 16 July 2009. Downing A Villan; Young Going Nowhere. Tottenham Hotspur fans were breathing a collective sigh of relief today as Aston Villa announced the signing of Stewart Downing. Spurs have been linked with the England international for seemingly as long as they've been tipped to break the 'Big Four' but neither have become a reality, though the former will have few of the White Hart Lane faithful dreaming of what could have been. MON is of the firm belief there...
