A Football Blog For Girls?
A strangely mesmerising football blog has been captivating me this week: Kickette.com seems squarely interested in sexy footballers, their WAGS and, er Girls Aloud. It’s like a blog written by your girlfriend, for Jordan

LA Player Beckerman gets the Kickette treatment
Oh, and is it safe to show a picture of a sex symbol and write: “Would you?” It is?

I Need Your Football Disaster Stories!
I’m helping a friend who works on a woman’s magazine to find some men who will talk about their football disaster stories….she says:

If you’ve got a cracking story you don’t mind recounting in a magazine, or know someone that does, drop me an email to postmaster@jeffmaysh.co.uk
