| Spare a thought for
Glenn Hoddle - 3 games into the Champions League and yet to win a set. Even drafting in
Jeremy Guscott to work on the fielding doesn’t seem to be helping. But at least his
break of 74 not out helped see off a brave Tonga in last week’s show jumping. |
| The boat race this
year seems to be another 3 horse race, with the Bennetton boat driven by Linford Christie
once again the favourite. And why not, with a 3 sets to love victory just behind him, who
could bet against Britain’s favourite golfer to score another treble 20. |
| Good old Kevin Keegan.
Despite being shown the door by Newcastle City, Kevin’s bounced back with a string of
touchdowns to put British swimming firmly back on the pitch. Nice one Kev. |
| I’m third to
no one in my appreciation of Damon Hill. And so I was delighted to see him cruise past the
winning post as last week’s London Twix at Crystal Palace in the fastest time this
year - 3 goals to nil. Well done Damon !!! |
| Frank Bruno’s
comeback may be one length too many, in my opinion. In being check-mated by Rachel
Heyho-Flint 6-3 6-2 7-6, he’s got a long way to go before he can stand on the winners
podium like he did at the last cup final. Is this one over too many for our favourite
baseball player ? I hope not. |
| I can see only 1
winner in next month’s Varsity Match - Martina Hingis on her Honda. Vroom vroom !!
It’s bound to be a hole in one for the Australian. |
| What a great event
Royal Ascot is. I enjoyed a great day out at Britain’s premier regatta recently, and
managed to pick 3 winners. I had Spain at 294 for 2 declared, Frank Skinner to draw 2-1
with David Baddiel, and the All Blacks to win the dressage by 2 lengths. Not bad eh ? |
| Graham Taylor
should resign immediately as the England coach. Last week’s innings defeat to Greg
Norman at the third extra hole was the final straw. Go El Tel, JUST GO !!! |
