‘Will Scotland keep the pound, or that old lady that appears on it?’ ‘Will the Scots have to empty their sporrans at the border when they head South?’ ‘Will Irn Bru be moved to the exotic foods part of the supermarket?’ As the independence debate enters the final furlong, an important question has been largely […]

Written by Roberto Kusabbi, @RKTweets Vines are here to say. No matter what News International want. The Premier League issued a diktat on sharing Vines from Premier League footage this weekend. This particular iron has been in the fire for awhile. Even sharing links of Vines would be in breach. Apparently. Yet the first weekend […]

With all the attention this summer focused on the World Cup, which league Luis Suarez would sink his teeth into next, and Southampton selling anything that breathes, you may have overlooked another non-entity of a pre-season at Villa Park. You’d be forgiven for missing the news that owner Randy Lerner, long-rumoured throughout last season to be […]

Five years. A PR gesture, or a change of tact? Hopefully the latter. In my opinion we’ve picked the best man for the job, considering the options. LVG would have been an interesting choice, but did he ever want it? It’s easy to see why Spurs have gone for Poch. He managed the media well […]

Pleasure to watch or […]

With Brendan Rodgers’s spell as David Brent in Being Liverpool a distant memory following the progress made across the previous season, expectations at Anfield were already high last August. We asked Nick Moss (@dnsandnick) for his take on their eventful season. Pleasure to watch or utter disaster? This barely needs to be covered! Watching Liverpool stream […]

Jose Mourinho’s first season back with Chelsea certainly frustrated a lot of neutrals, but what’s the fans’ perspective? We asked Dan Northcote-Smith (@dnsandnick) for his views on the season. Pleasure to watch or utter disaster? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder – victories at Anfield and the Etihad, plus not losing to any […]

In the first of our end-of-season reviews, 1FITG Co-Editor and Founder Roberto digests 2013/14 at White Hart Lane. The fact it can be written before the season officially finishes perhaps sums it up. Pleasure to watch or utter disaster? Mostly very difficult to watch. Apparently we sold Elvis and bought the Beatles. But it turns […]

There have been several managers that deserve praise for Herculean efforts this season. Sean Dyche’s remarkable season with Burnley, Russell Slade making Leyton Orient genuine automatic contenders, and Tony Pulis turning a doomed Palace side overnight into a viable Premiership survivor to mention but a few. But what of those that have perhaps had less […]

It’s astonishing to compare what is possible in the 21st century compared to how it used to be. For instance, the way we view television is remarkable. The advent of interactive digital technology means the home viewer can select, augment and interact with what they watch in an entirely new way, and not just at […]
