I forget who it was but they were right when they said he could have written that book about any aspect of his life - films, music, theatre - with equal passion but they'd all been done before so sadly for us he chose football.

So he's basically a more literate Tim Lovejoy.  A tosser and a fraud.

With a wife who was high up at his publishers. However, unlike Lovejoy he jumped on the bandwagon when it had only just started.

I'd rather choke up a kidney than read another Nick Hornby book.

Aren't all the subsequent ones really just the same sort of theme dressed up slightly differently?

Thankfully have never had a subscription to Sky so missed out on the Saturday morning show others talk about.
I saw it once or twice when at friend's or relatives - if there is a bigger cock in the world than Tim Lovejoy then I know not whom.
I loved Taylor Parkes assassination of his auto.

I never like the fact that he lived in Reading and supported Arsenal.

Or when he chose to attend a literary awards dinner instead of Arsenal's Cup Final replay against Sheffield Wednesday.

To be fair, it was a bloody terrible game between two tedious sides.

Never pass up the opportunity to read this. I love the fact that on any given day it's invariably in WSC's 5 most-read articles.

Was that the review on WSC? I remember reading that years ago and then passing the link around to everyone I knew. Fantastic stuff.

Indeed - he did one about england's World Cup Exit in 2006. It was and still is uncanily accurate. English players are:

'....poorly coached from birth, encouraged to believe their own hype and ultimately not all that good....'

Lovejoy's opinion:

“Look across our national team” – he means England, by the way – “and there isn’t one player who wouldn’t walk into any side in Europe... why is it, before every tournament, we start believing we’re overrated?”

[Brend'Watkins]

Soccer am was worth it for the one episode where Mani of Stone Roses/Primal Scream fame put Lovejoy to task over his wearing of a Ramones T shirt. It epitomized the person Tim Lovejoy. It should give him sleepless nights but I doubt it does.

Wasn't it Martin Freeman who did that to Timbo? asked him to name his favourite Ramones album and Lovejoy looked as if he didn't even realise that the Ramones were a band

Either way, classic telly

You're right it was Freeman. Maybe Mani brought it up in a further episode which makes me think it was him.  I can still see Lovejoy squirming in his seat, that's what mattered.

It beggars belief considering e.g. England's GKs at the time of writing were Paul Robinson / David James whereas other countries had nobodies e.g. Spain had Casillias/Valdez/Reina and Germany had Kahn/Lehman and Italy Buffon. I'd argue Given was a much better than any England option during mid-00's.

Lovejoy is a prick, symptomatic of banal mediocrity much of the nation seems to settle for nowadays.
