Part one of our final world cup podcast is now up Please have a look over in the football section of the webpage
A Cup Like No Other
The cup has a new home in the depth of the German Football Association’s headquarters, and the great prediction of Gary Lineker were just as valid in 2014 as when he made it in 1990, though in this case it was a 120mins of football before the Germans won. The Germans were good throughout the …
After the end
So we find ourselves after a magnificent tournament. But while things were happening on the hallowed grounds of the Maracana, things were happening.

Brazil 1 – Germany 7 Yes. I …
The Final Showdown
So it comes down to two (or still four really), and this time I get to make a fool of myself, or at least even more so than usual. My erstwhile colleague has his review of the semi-finals where he looks back over those two games, but I am looking forward to two great games; …
The Fab Four
Despite my various failures last week, when it came to decision time for this article, I decided I very much so wanted to fail again. So far the knock rounds of the tournament have gone as we would expect, the group winners go through to the quarters, and the higher seeded team of each Quarter …
