All's well that ends well

That's that done until August then.
The Premier League was wrapped up this weekend and, to say the least, it didn't really capture my imagination. Kevin Keegan spoke this week of finding it impossible for his club to break into the top four of the league (Everton are the only side to have done this in the last six years) but I think the Premiership is all about two clubs. Chelsea have been given enough money to mount a challenge whilst Man Utd have earned enough money to win the title. Soon enough, these two will get bored of their English counterparts and form a new league consisting of the top clubs in Europe. I think the 'Euro Super League' is a nice name Seb Blatter.
The most interesting and competitive part of the top flight is the relegation dog fight. Derby were relegated in about December (on another matter - why did Paul Jewell go there?) but the tussle that was left proved fascinating to observe.
Fulham showed great determination to avoid the drop and Danny Murphy is a bald legend who was a favourite of mine at Liverpool but he does good deeds for the lesser clubs now.

Racing at Chester was competitive but with respect to the classic trials, I don't think there will be any winners to come from them.
Channel 4's racing coverage is top notch and their piece with Michael Owen was fascinating. The footballer really has put in a lot of time, money and effort to build one of the best training centres in Britain. However, I think many people are misled into thinking that Nicky Vaughn is a private trainer for Owen but the Toon striker was keen to suggest that this is not the case and the facilities which he has built for owners reinterates this sentiment.
