Owen's Bio

Editor on B/R, Featured Columnist for Sunderland, and Web Correspondent for Goal.com UK. Was born and bred in Sunderland...but don't hold it against me.

My main job is working for the NHS as a Management Trainee in Finance.

You can catch me on www.facebook.com/osgwatson

What else do I need on a Bio? I don't feel like providing a DNA sample...

This article was a bit of a 'rush" job, (did it on my lunch hour)so I'm not surprised if the punctuation was a bit sloppy. Thanks for the cleanup.

Hey Owen, in what I hope to be a new feature to the site, I've written a comprehensive biography of France Legend Michel Platini, it's long so I can understand if you don't have the time to look at it but otherwise I'd really appreciate your opinion on it.

With both FIFA and PES coming out, I thought I'd write an article about them.

Hope you enjoy it.
