It goes without saying that the devastation from the Haitian Earthquake is unlike anything we have seen in this region in recent times. Not even Hurricane Kartina comes close.

It’s probably not often that Manchester City and Prince get mentioned in the same sentence. I doubt the little funky fella spends much time pondering events at Eastlands or writing songs inspired by Micah Richards.

Last Thursday, I was away from the television set so I decided to follow the Blackburn Rovers against Aston Villa Carling Cup tie via the radio for a change. Listening to the Tunin.FM radio app on my iPhone, I was immediately captivated by the commentary for a few different reasons. First, radio commentary sounds more […]
