Eurosport: One mad week

Hectic isn't the word for the last 7 days as I took on four games for Eurosport. Makes up for the impending lack of work over the summer, I guess.

Firstly, there was the La Liga Monday kick-off between Espanyol and Athletic Bilbao:

Then on Wednesday it was upset time as Inverness CT defeated Celtic:

Thursday was the day Sporting Braga won an all-Portugese Europa League semi to set up an all-Portugese final, their first ever European final to boot:

And on Sunday, Celtic made amends for the midweek defeat to keep their title hopes alive at Kilmarnock:

Walsall 2-0 Charlton, 30/04/2011

Final away trip of the season for the Addicks, and it was defeat to Walsall which at the very least, made it almost impossible for Bristol Rovers and their diving player-manager to survive:

My MEN debut

Charlton v Rochdale on Bank Holiday Monday saw me contribute my first work for Manchester Evening News, who needed a local journo to help out over the Easter weekend.
