London is a major international communications centre with a virtually unrivaled number of media outlets. The British media is concentrated in London and is sometimes accused of having a "London bias". All the major television networks are headquartered in London including the BBC, which remains one of the world's most influential media organisations. Partly to counter complaints about London bias, the BBC announced in June 2004 that some departments are to be relocated to Manchester. Other networks headquarted in London include ITV, Channel ...

Transport is one of the four areas of policy administered by the Mayor of London, but the mayor's financial control is limited. The public transport network, administered by Transport for London (TfL), is one of the most extensive in the world, but faces congestion and reliability issues. It is one of the most complex transit systems anywhere on the planet, with just over 1 billion journeys each year on the Underground alone. In preparation for the 2012 London Olympic Games, a total of £7 billion (€10 billion) will be spent on refu ...

Main articles: Geography of London and Climate of London Greater London covers an area of 609 square miles (1,579 km²). London used to be identified by its port on the Thames, which is a navigable river. The river had a major influence on the development of the city. London was founded on the north bank of the Thames and, for many centuries, there was only a single bridge, London Bridge. As a result, the main focus of the city was on the north side of the Thames.

They were Ivor Allchurch, John Charles (signed by Leeds before making his first-team debut), Trevor Ford and Cliff Jones. Ivor Allchurch is the subject of the first statue to be placed at the Liberty Stadium. Funded by the club's Supporters' Trust, it wa ...

Swansea's last League match at the Vetch Field was a 1-0 win over Shrewsbury Town on 30 April 2005 in front of a full house; 11,465 people were present to say farewell to the asymmetrical ground, its crooked floodlights and irreplaceable acoustics. Many thought it fated that Swansea would win promotion during the final season at the Vetch, given so many prior false hopes both for promotion and for the new ground itself. One week after the Shrewsbury game, Swansea did indeed clinch promotion to Coca Cola League One with another 1-0 win, this ti ...

Southgate was originally the South Gate to Enfield Chase, the King's hunting grounds. This is reflected in the street names Chase Road (which leads due north from the station to Oakwood, and was formerly the avenue into the Chase) and Chase Side. Becoming separate from Edmonton in 1881, Southgate had a population in 1891 of just 10,970. By 1901 the figure had moved up to 14,993, and by 1911 the figure had ballooned to 33,612, aided by ...

Swansea City and its supporters are unofficially known as the 'Jacks'. One explanation for this name is that during the 17th century, sailors from Swansea were extremely well respected and any 'Swansea Jack' was allowed to join the crew based simply on the town's reputation for great seamen. Swansea City has a loyal and proud following and had easily the highest average attendance in League Two during the 2004-05 season. The club's somewhat flamboyant mascot is Cyril the Swan who was joined in 2005 by Sybil the Swan, a doyenne o ...

Tottenham have been members of the Premier League continuously since its creation in 1992-93, but have never made much of an impact. Performances have been truly mediocre: Spurs are the only Premiership team never to have finished in either the top six or the bottom six of the table. Their best finish came in 1995 when they finished seventh and there has been very little for the White Hart Lane fans to shout about in the last 13 years. Since 1992, managers Doug Livermore, Ossie Ardiles, Gerry Francis, Christian Gross, George Graham, G ...

When Pope Gregory the Great sent St. Augustine to bring England into the Catholic fold in 597, it was intended that the envoy should become "Archbishop of London", as the city was remembered as the capital of Roman Britain. In the event, the saint received his most hospitable reception in the Kingdom of Kent, and the archiepiscopal see was founded at Canterbury. Nonetheless London has been at the centre of England's religious life for much of its history, and each Archbishop of Canterbury has traditionally spent much of his time in London, w ...

Wigan Athletic's rise to the Premiership has been well-documented by the English media, who at times have speculated and criticised the club about relatively low attendances for home matches. This was widely-publicised and compounded by the recent League Cup Semi-Final game against Arsenal, where the match attendance was 12,181 (48 percent of ground capacity.) The club's management argued that this attendance was due to the fact that not only was the match on a weekday evening, but was also televised and deep amongst the backlo ...
