The athletic are American based I believe and seemed to have hoovered up lots of journalists in this country in order to establish themselves over here. I’ve always thought Evans was terrible so how he got the gig I’ll never know.

They’ve signed up some quality writers Stateside, such as Ken Rosenthal, Jayson Stark, David Aldridge and especially Peter Gammons

How on earth did Greggggg get in with them? They do some excellent writing in the US.

I was going along with his "I was there when..." list of Villa momentous events until he said how he felt Jack's pain after being punched in the back of the head. There's ingratiating yourself enthusiastically (fair enough) and there's being a bit creepy/cringey.

It probably says a lot about the dearth in quality of the local journalists who cover us.
