When I first saw Jaygun, oops sorry, Jaysean Paige in practice after he arrived on these shores it confirmed what I thought, somehow, some way Dave F had found an absolute star. See, I follow NCAA basketball through the winter too and West Virginia’s Mountaineers were a team I’d remembered. Why? Mainly because of their…
On Friday 13th October when the London Lions visited Sport Central to take on our Eagles we had another group of visitors back for the first time this season, the Rickelton family. Mum of three, Sam is the award winning blogger behind North East Family Fun and along with husband Steve they brought the kids to…
Sometimes the timing of a blog can be all important. As I made my way home from last Friday’s wonderful night’s entertainment I had already formulated in this little brain of mine my feelings ready to outpour them for your consideration.

Okay then I guess you want my take and a little bit of inside insight on Sunday’s tournament. Once again, I thank Mr Blake, Mr Flournoy et al for allowing me my few words, not that it’s ever few, which are strictly my opinion. So, off we jolly well went and, there’s little to report…
Well that was a good weekend, now wasn’t it? The Rocks were well and truly rolled and Team Northumbria were blown away in the second half after a tight first half where they showed they have a really good squad. I interviewed TN Coach Marc Steutel after the game so won’t give too much away…
Mmmmm not sure about the title of this one? I mean I kept telling you all to be excited, very excited and then we came out Friday night and bombed the **** out of Team USA Select displaying a style of basketball that was, well…… exciting! But and with the greatest respect to Team USA…
