About Me

KICboy - Kicked In (the) Cloisters. That is how I now feel about football. From Charterhouse to the Champions League, the game of the people needs to be returned to the people. Let's end this corporate scope creep! 80s YTS footballer turned Project Manager with a few roles in between whilst I changed my game. I am passionate about football at every level and want to encourage people to WAKE UP! There is no point even looking at the findings of the Government Select Committee Enquiry Into Football Report unless we are going to make a stand and bring about some of the changes recommended. I am offering an alternative vision; an independent candidate for change - Martin Bell in boots, if you like! Do you feel that football is increasingly kicking you in the cloisters? Then read KICboy and The Man(ifesto) - creating the mandate for change. (Illustrations by Gemma Hastilow.)

Do you participate in time travel?

Can you read the following passage and then answer the questions that follow, please?

‘…, but England’s poor performances in Brazil could at least in part be explained by the lack of importance England attached to the tournament, and to the consequent inadequacy of their preparation.’
(Jonathan Wilson, p.73).

1). The above statement is written about an event that will happen four years into the future. True or false?

2). The above statement is written about an event that happened sixty years ago.
True or false?

3). Will participation rates for football be higher or lower by 2014?

4). Seeing the picture: - what factors have influenced your answer to Q3?

5). Do you know the book that the passage was taken from? If so, did the England performance last night exceed your expectations, underwhelm you or follow Sergeant Wilson's predictions?
