Rod Liddle

A lazy, largely inaccurate piece by Rod Liddle - who should know the importance of research after the Gilligan affair - in this morning's Times, though he manages to work in an impressive number of religious references. I did spot one salient point: taking out Chelsea, the success of Premier League clubs can be measured in almost exact proportion to the size of their attendances. The glaring exception is, of course, Newcastle United, currently trailing far behing the likes of Bolton, Reading and Portsmouth thanks to the comical ineptitude of Freddie Shepherd.

Comical?

Tragic!
