04/05/2006 25/05/2006 THE tennis world has always loved its rivalries. In the early 1980s, it was John McEnroe slowly stealing Jimmy Connors' crown via a series of games that were played amid a backdrop of mutual dislike. 18/05/2006 LAST SUNDAY, thousands of Bari fans flocked to their home ground to get a close-up glimpse of Juventus. Adventurous spirit THERE is a fine line between bravery and stupidity and, in the eyes of most footballing experts, Sven-Goran Eriksson crossed it on Monday. 27/04/2006 According to BBC researchers, a majority of television viewers associate the BBC Sport brand with cutting-edge technology, such as red-button interactive services, rather than flagship shows such as Grandstand. Therefore, the flagship has been sunk. 20/04/2006 MAY 1986 was a landmark month for Middlesbrough. Relegated to Division Three for the first time in their history, the club was placed into liquidation with spiralling debts approaching the £2m mark. 13/04/2006 Transcript of Steve McClaren's interview with the FA's nominations panel. 06/04/2006 Magnolia Lane, the meandering driveway that leads to the clubhouse at Augusta, sounds so authentically American, it should be the setting for an episode of Desperate Housewives. This week, it has provided the backdrop for some Desperate Golfers. 30/03/2006 DESPITE the trauma of his previous flirtation with Tottenham Hotspur, perhaps Alan Sugar should turn to football in the search for his next apprentice. 23/03/2006 IN the end then, not a vintage Six Nations but an intriguing one nonetheless. There were the usual winners and losers although, bizarrely, the losers proved to be one of the biggest winners and the eventual champions still finished the tournament with serious questions to answer. 16/03/2006 WHILE Arsene Wenger was understandably wounded by Alan Pardew's assertion that Arsenal's failure to field a single English player in last week's Champions League victory was detrimental to the future of English football, the Frenchman was undeniably wrong to label his managerial rival "racist". 09/03/2006 IF possession is nine-tenths of the law, then a caretaker-manager role cannot be too far away from a permanent position. 16/02/2006 INDIAN summers are supposed to be the highlight of a career but, as England's cricketers are about to discover, Indian springs can be rather less enjoyable. 02/03/2006 AMIDST all the chaos that has engulfed England's already ill-fated tour of India, it was easy to miss Michael Vaughan skulking back home on Monday morning. 16/02/2006 INDIAN summers are supposed to be the highlight of a career but, as England's cricketers are about to discover, Indian springs can be rather less enjoyable. 02/02/2006 AFTER being rightly berated for his impetuous handling of Mathew Tait last spring, it seems strange that England coach Andy Robinson is now being accused of undue conservatism ahead of this weekend's Six Nations opener against Wales. 26/01/2006 WHILE Brian Barwick claims he is willing to leave "no stone unturned" in his search for Sven Goran Eriksson's successor, the Football Association's chief executive had better not be banking on adding to his air miles in the next six months. 19/01/2006 IT seems that winning the Champions League is not all it's cracked up to be. Not content with watching his players stage one of the greatest comebacks of all time to be crowned kings of Europe last May, Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry has criticised the British establishment for overlooking them in the New Year's Honours List. 12/01/2006 IT is incredibly rare to witness sporting perfection. Talented displays are all around us, but the sight of a genuine great performing at the peak of his or her powers remains an elusive phenomenon. 05/01/2006 RARELY can fans of the NorthEast's three biggest football clubs have entered a New Year with such feelings of doom and despair.
