Waghorn and Bilverstone

Waghorn's writing style is appalling. Besides, anyone who adds the prefixes 'good' and 'old' before the words Daily Mail are not to be trusted.

"'Tapping-up storm hits Norwich chief' screams the headline to his regular column."

I don't need to know about whether Charles Sale has a regular column or not. That sentence smacks of sixth form poetry.

As for Bilverstone, I never got on with the way he seems to write as if on behalf of all the fans. His opinions aren't always shared. Plus, he's fickle as anything.
