Yes, but getting published comes toward the end, and they may not even get published - they won't have to put it forward until after they've completed the research part of their studies. A PhD student could spend a few years on this study and at the end of it find they have made basic errors...

A PhD student is "by definition" a student. Still learning, and growing. They are still developing. That's why they get their qualification at the end of their work. I'm talking about studies by people who have already qualified and built reputations as experts in their area, and are much, much...

But if they don't have all the information - that's the point. Without the study it is guesswork and assumption. Some people, maybe even most people, might not change a thing after the study, but at least they'd be less blind. Again, people are focusing too much on heading the football and not...

As I've mentioned a couple of times now, the inclusion of the NFL without a clearer explanation has muddied the discussion. My point with the NFL was not meant to compare the sports, but to point to them having had many of the same discussions - the players know what they're getting into, we...

Quite, partly due to it being a late night post, and partly due to my rush to refer to the work of CTE and NFL's changing attitude I have perhaps led the discussion to the wrong place. The Telegraph campaign is simply for this. We were promised a study into brain damage caused by the game 14...

There is a lot of focus on heading, and 'let's ban heading' is often a headline catcher, but it's not just that, is it? It's the likes of Jedinak and Fellaini leading with their elbows, it's collision of heads when two people go for the same ball, or the keeper colliding with the attacker, it's...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/05/30/footballs-silent-shame-dementia-conspiracy-is-a-stain-on-the-gam/ I know there is an attitude within football that is resistant to health and safety, "it's a man's game", "it's a contact sport" and all those cliches. I know we mocked sir Alex for...
