In Episode 21 of the Analytics FC Podcast we are joined by Sean Ingle, senior sports writer and columnist at the Guardian. We discuss journalism, data journalism and Sean gives some excellent advice for aspiring writers. We then dive into three main topics: Football, Tennis and Athletics - discussing Leicester’s surprise season, the recent Buzzfeed/BBC investigation into match-fixing in tennis and the doping and expectation-setting problems in UK athletics currently. --------------- Links from the podcast: http://www.theguardian.com/profile/seaningle http://www.amazon.co.uk/Put-Writing-John-Whale/dp/0460024353 http://www.buzzfeed.com/heidiblake/the-tennis-racket http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2016/jan/17/leicester-city-premier-league http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/jan/27/buzzfeed-bbc-tennis-match-fixing-allegations http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/jan/26/great-britain-rio-olympics-2016-medal-expectrations-paralympics Please take the time to give us a rating on iTunes here: itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/analy…id991610009?mt=2.
