About

Hi everyone. My name is Paul Murtagh and I live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I have a huge interest in both soccer and Formula 1, and like to express my opinion on these subjects. I have written many articles before on both subjects, but it wasn't until I registered with this website that I have been able to express myself

I am also a global moderator on a motorsport forum called Wheelnuts (www.wheelnutsforum.com) where we discuss the events of all things motorsport, as well as post articles, run competitions and run a Motorsport Hall of Fame. We have been going since January 2008 and are continually expanding, taking in members from as far as the USA, Germany and Latvia despite being mostly British-dominated.
