Almost 1,000 FIRST TIME junior school season ticket holders

Goodison is a hive of activity in the close season and the pace of all those jobs and ‘things to do’ accelerates as we approach our opening game.

It’s now starting to move very fast! Our maintenance team, our groundsmen, our electricians, our builders, our decorators, our caterers, all have their ‘feet to...

The long queues at check-in gave it away. That ‘crack of dawn’ alarm call and the taxi across Bangkok were in vain. The in-bound flight had been re-routed for a passenger ‘taken-ill’ and my trip home was in tatters. Changing airlines and the last flight home isn’t what I wanted but with a few hours spare in Bangkok airport, there’s...

The Christmas holiday period is always a good time to reflect on the past 12 months and an opportunity to look forward to the year ahead.
