Paul Halliwell

A die-hard Green Bay Packers, Boston Celtics, Boston Red Sox, Boston Bruins, Notre Dame, MUFC, Cloud 9 e-Sports fan, and just all-around sports nut. If I can watch it while drinking a beer and shouting at the TV, count me in. Bit of a cycling enthusiast, whose second love after sports, may or may not be the bike, just don’t tell the missus. It’s mostly shade and bias masquerading as “journalism”, but at least it’s well written, probably.

Tom Ali

An obsessive supporter of Man United who grew up watching United’s glory under Fergie and sadly Pep’s Barcelona, so I can appreciate good football when I see it. Also a Formula 1 fanatic who has been lucky enough to attend two British Grand Prix. Can’t resist sticking the darts on during the World Champions either so an all-around sports aficionado.
