Some criticism of GB for only 14 golds (65 in total). I remember 1996 Olympics (one gold and just 15 medals in total!). British sport now in a pretty good state I’d say. #olympics

Annual request for good sports books to read on holiday? Any suggestions please?

Very much enjoyed covering the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

Early season observation: why are average clubs continuing to play the ball directly out from their goalkeeper? It is inviting immediate pressure. Who is telling teams to do this? Outside the elite it simply does not work.

Emotional tribute to Craig Shakespeare and Kevin Campbell at The Hawthorns. Fans break out into "The Lord is My Shepherd" during minute's applause.

Leeds fans booing passing the ball back before chanting “attack, attack, attack.”

RIP Sven. A fine, fine man.

Oasis, Ticketmaster et al are making a big song and dance about how touts are wrong. But doing exactly the same thing themselves by selling £140 tickets at £358 a time. This surely can’t be legal?

Can’t believe how poor Jack Draper’s serve has been today. All-round game has been very good but the serve - his main weapon - misfiring in biggest match of his life.

My first live England test match was v Sri Lanka at The Oval in 1998. England threw it away then and have done very similar this time.

Fulham v West Ham for me today. A London derby with both sides desperate for a victory.
