This site map is a brief guide to different sections, with short cuts until you find your way around
.
NEWS
Rolling your cursor across the News tab on the main menu bar above will give you a drop-down menu of specific sports. Clicking on any particular sport will take you to an archive of news for that sport. Clicking on ‘All’ or on the word ‘News’ will take you to a mixed archive.
As a general rule, stories in this section will feature original content and breaking stories by sportingintelligence writers, as opposed to a regurgitation of stories from other sources. We may well cite other sources to save time repeating information already in the public domain but if we’re not telling you something first, or adding value somewhere in the pieces in the News section (which are all in the Latest Stories column on the far left of the home page), they shouldn’t be there.
.
QUICK LINKS
Quick Links are on the home page, in the far right column, and take you to stories from elsewhere, themed round-ups with links, and/or quirky items from the international media.
.
FEATURES
Our features section has six sub-sections and you can read a brief description of each of them by clicking on the word Features on the main menu bar.
The A-Listers offers snapshots of the sporting world in the form of extended, annotated lists of the fastest and fittest, the biggest and best, the richest and most successful, the most popular, the most packed, the most watched, the most enduring. And a few of the opposite for good measure.
Super statto: Sears brings you the work of our brilliant resident statistician, Brian Sears, a man who has forgotten more football stats than most people will ever know. Think John Motson on a keen day, in a three-layered anorak. Brian is a lifelong Watford fan, yet still loves football: true devotion. He won’t tell you who made 12 assists and completed 76 per cent of their passes (yawn), but during the last English football season (2009-10) he foretold the 50-year record high crowds the League was heading for (long before that came to pass), suggested Arsenal’s brief title charge when they were still well off the pace, and pointed out the 100th Premier League scalps in the FA Cup were Liverpool, also the most scalped team since 1993.
