Has a column in the Observer. Say what you like about the guy you'll always get entertainment.

 

Jordan

He's bloody brilliant.

[Zoob]

LOL - love the bit at the end;

 

"The next time a referee performs woefully in a Palace match, I won't write a constructive column on refereeing standards, Fifa's refereeing structure and the use of technology, I'll take the new FA endorsed route, find the bloke at half time, threaten him with a beating and swear my face off. "

[Atticus Finch]

I've never taken to him as a person, but I have to admit that his columns are a must-read. I love the hypocrisy he exposes within the game - Lowe's poaching of other youth players is a prime example.

[Earl Hafler]

Love his column.

 

David Dein is another you have to admire - I love him for his total Arsenalness. He's one of those people who'll always come up to you, shake your hand, ask how things are going and then stiff you in the nicest possible way. He offered us Matthew Upson on loan in 2001 for a salary of £10,000 a week - we took him for two months, then later found out his Arsenal salary was half that.

Doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Crackin' bit of business

[Stevie H]

i'd never particularly warmed to him in the past but his column is a refreshingly honest read.

[Leo No.8]

That really is good - I'll have to make a point of catching his articles in future...

see if there's an archive of his on the observer site leo, his previous columns have been both better and funnier than that one.

[Bailo]

He's an absolute w***** in real life, but he talks sense in his columns and is a breath of fresh air in the asinine world of football opinions.

Will do mate - cheers!

[Guest Gaz_J]

The article re-telling his 'trial' by the FA discipinary body reads like a true Ealing farce. You couldn't make it up.

There are usually links to the previous 5/6 columns on the left hand side of the page.
