'Writer of Extratime.ie's 14,000th article reveals he was told to write for ET sooner'

An odd honour was bestowed upon me yesterday - or rather, I unknowingly bestowed it upon myself - when I learned that my preview of this week's top of the table First Division clash between Finn Harps and Athlone Town for Extratime.ie was the website's 14,000th ever article.

For the College View, album review: Wintersleep - Welcome to the Night Sky

Imagine a slightly less polished Editors. Imagine Snow Patrol’s first two albums, before Final Straw, the one’s nobody cared about. And, as HMV so aptly described it, imagine a Coldplay influenced by R.E.M., Neil Young and lumberjack shirts instead of Radiohead. Imagine these things and you can imagine Wintersleep.
