[Article] From Richard Berger: I don’t make a habit of doing this, as I don’t wish to set myself up as a middleman in a link exchange. However, I did want to mention an excellent column written by the highly knowledgeable sports writer for The Belfast Telegraph, Brian Elliott. As well as reporting on country-wide events for the #1 newspaper in Ireland, he also writes the occasional piece for Slam! Wrestling. His latest effort is a very entertaining interview and a fair amount of insight into the world of British pro and amateur wrestling, as seen through the eyes of Dave Finlay, Sr. He, of course, being the father of current WWE star (and legitimate grappler, Fit Finley), and he has a lot to say and some stories to tell. If this appeals to you, you can read the piece by clicking here: http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/2008/05/30/5725846.html
