The Columnists
Rick Waghorn
Rick Waghorn returned to his family’s Norfolk roots when he joined the Evening News in 1992 as a sports reporter. Rick became the paper’s Norwich City football writer at the start of the 1993-94 season… just in time to follow the Canaries on their epic UEFA Cup adventure. After 13 seasons following City for the Evening News, Rick left Archant in 2005 to set up myfootballwriter.com.
Tom Haylett
Born in the South East, but now an honourary Norfolk boy, Tom Haylett is from fine stock. He is from football journalism royalty, with the blue ink of Fleet Street coursing through his veins – his dad being the Daily Mail and Independent correspondent, Trevor Haylett. Tom is clearly a chip of the old block, he is also the most handsome member of the My Football Writer team… which, let’s face it, isn’t difficult.
Mick Dennis
Mick Dennis is a football writer and broadcaster. He began his career with Eastern Counties Newspapers and was the Norwich City correspondent for the Evening News and then the EDP during the John Bond era. He was sports editor of the London Evening Standard and has worked for five national newspapers. He is a football correspondent at the Daily Express and a regular contributor to Five Live.
Charlie Wyett
Charlie Wyett’s first job was as a news reporter with the Wisbech Standard in 1990. He then moved into sport and after working with the Cambs Times, Cambridge Evening News and the Gulf Today in Dubai, he joined The Sun as a sports sub-editor in 1996. He became a staff football writer in 1998 and has been there ever since.

Stanley
Our man in the stands follows the Canaries up and down the land and offers up the verdict on City’s latest performance. Players in, players out, Stanley will be there to have his say. And who, exactly, is Stanley? You better ask a good, old fashioned Barclay boy…
