THE FOOTBALL SEASON HAS KICKED OFF

For anyone who has failed to notice, the British footie season kicked off again yesterday. So it’s more shopping for the girls and hoarse voices for the men, resulting in a 1-1 draw and a quiet Saturday night for both. No wonder the soccer pages aren’t presently giving divorce lawyers much to get excited about. For action in the Sports Section, it’s Formula One I’m following. The ongoing heated relationship between Hamilton and Alonso and rumours of a potential end of season bust up, after purportedly unfair play at the pit stop, could be a divorce blogger’s dream. It’s alleged that the two can’t work together; that they don’t share the team’s values and that Alonso has been told he can go. Motor racing supporters of course want to see this settled on the track in a public spectacle of blood and gore; a striking contrast to the privacy of the Divorce Court.
