Episode 3 of A Casual Chat with The Casual Sniper In the 3rd episode of my “Casual Chat” podcast I was delighted to be able to chat to Gavin aka “The Casual Sniper.” Pompey fan and old school casual, he was there from the beginning, through the explosion of casual culture in the 80s to […]
No income tax, no Sky TV… black or white, we’ll cut prices at a stroke. Long live Hooky Street, Long Live Peckham Town. A Liverpool fan by choice, Bristol Rovers by blood… on moving to South East London my ability to go up to Anfield with my Dad, or even the Rovers was significantly reduced. […]
When I was first diagnosed with coeliac disease a few years ago my first thought and main concern was the idea of not being able to drink beer! Luckily I quickly learnt that there are a raft of gluten free beers available. Lots of the big boys do a GF version and they are easily […]
I lived with a mate once who was a die hard Evertonian – one of the angry ones. He was also a top bloke and a real scouser. He knew how to dress and in the true sense of the word casual he liked to do things a bit differently, seek out lesser known brands, […]
See the bottom of the post for a chance to win a pair! I feel like I’m getting less and less excited about adidas release these days, maybe all the re-releases are getting a bit much and saturation is finally kicking in, or maybe I’m just trying to train my brain to switch off the […]
In the second in my series of “Casual Chats” I caught up with David, Liverpool fan, trainer obsessive and the man behind one of the North West’s best loved bands – The Ragamuffins.

I think they are the most interesting. So I decided to try and start having “casual” chats with mates, people I know vaguely and […]
When I was first diagnosed with coeliac disease my biggest concern was not being able to drink lager, luckily I soon discovered that Gluten Free Beer did exist! As time has gone on I’ve discovered more and more, not just independent craft types, but a lot of the big boy breweries have their own Gluten […]
I love a pool slide. Or more specifically an Adilette. My obsession with them is getting close to my relationship with trainers. It’s worrying really. But I have started to spot some that I like that aren’t even adidas! Look at me, I’m growing. So with that in mind, I thought I would pick out my […]
Another re-release from the 80s, the adidas Frankfurt is perhaps the most unusual of the limited edition city series. The bluebird navy and silver colour way with suede and leather is very easy on the eye, it is the velcro straps that stand out. Despite having the original terrace feel from the 80s and more than […]
