The Final League Table Vs My Pre-Season Predictions

By: Rob |

1 Comment

Predictions are a fool’s game. The beauty of this game we watch is that its like a soap without a script – you never know what’s going to happen. Take Newcastle for instance, after a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford how many would have predicted the disastrous season they’ve endured? Not I, and neither would [...]

Will Man United be right to field a second-string against Hull?

By: Rob |

16 Comments

So, Man United have won the league, and with the Champions League final just three days after a trip to Hull, its fair to say that United will not field a full strength team against Hull. There could be a bit of a storm brewing though, as Hull are entangled in a bit of a [...]

One Down: But Who Will Join West Brom in the Championship

By: Rob |

5 Comments

So farewell, West Brom, it was nice having you. Any attempt to stay up using good football, with brilliant fans (they sang and cheered their hearts out as their side went down to Liverpool for example) is alright by me. Maybe we’ll see you again soon.
It just wasn’t as effective as Stoke’s Wimbledon-circa-1987 football. [...]

The sudden rise and deep decline of Hull City

By: Rob |

So big story of last night was that Newcastle thumped Boro after a shakey start which moves them out of the relegation zone on goal difference. The team that it plunges into the dropzone are Hull City. What a rollercoatser season they’ve had.
Rewind back to August, and lets be honest, none of us gave [...]

Fábregas accused of spitting as Arsenal waltz through in controversy

By: Rob |

2 Comments

Arsenal have made it to an FA Cup semi-final with Chelsea, at Wembley Stadium after beating Hull City 2-1 last night. The match however was dogged with incident, as Arsenal’s late winner seemed it shouldn’t have stood, Phil Brown refused to shake hands with Arsene Wenger at the end, and then the Hull manager sensationally [...]
