My name is Martin Hines, and I’m about to start a two year course in Sports Journalism at the London College Of Communication, in London. This blog is intended to charter my journey through the seedy underbelly of both the course, and of London life in general – both of which have their ups and downs. Hopefully two years from today I’ll have a plethora of posts, loads of whimsical quips, and a thousand strong following, although a lot more likely, this will be the only post I make.
A little about me. My favourite sports are football, cricket, boxing and tennis, although I have an embarrassingly large interest in professional wrestling which gets scorn poured upon me on a regular basis. I used to hate golf, but Padraig Harringtons beautiful victory last year in the Open Championship opened up a new world for me. Saying that, the day I set my feet onto a golf course will be the last day I’m alive. Not a massive fan of Pringle sweaters, or being a dickhead.
Well, there you go – blunt introductions complete. A whole range of sport is on this month, from football, to the continued start of the Rugby Union season, so I’ll be posting whenever I feel like I have something to say.
