"If you want some accessible but informative insight into football then I suggest you couldn't do better than the Political Economy of Football website, which is not only intelligible but comes with the added bonus of being written by Addicks fan Wyn Grant."

Queen of the South has been hit very hard by the winter weather in Scotland.   A number of key home fixtures were postponed, particularly over the festive season.   The club now has cash flow problems and may have to go part-time, although the chairman insists that there is no danger of them going into administration.   Fans have rallied round with a Facebook campaign and are looking into ways of raising funds.


One of the best inventive comments directed at a lino I have ever heard came from Palmerston Park: 'Hey you, assistant referee, get yer mither ship tae beam ye back up fir laser eye surgery.'    (This comes from David Bennie's odyessy round Scottish football grounds, A Season in Hell).
