Which Big Names Couldn’t Cut It in the Prem?

By: Rob | Comments 10 Comments

Thank God that’s over. I’m glad England have already qualified for the World Cup and all – espeically after the Umbrella debacle – but not having to get a last minute goal against Greece, or a draw in Rome made this last round of matches even less interesting than usual.
But one thing that did [...]

Why Setanta Sports going into Administration matters to us all.

By: Rob | Comments 9 Comments

There’s no doubt about the dubious impact that BskyB has had on the Premier League. When England’s top league was merely Division One, no-one thought you could put proper live football on, and get a decent audience. So Sky bullied their way in, gave the league a rebranding, and made everyone pay, first for Sky, [...]

Who Do You Think Will Cope Best If Promoted? Vote!

By: Wayne Farry | Comments No Comments

Okay, so if you’re being exact, I am talking about the Championship here, but by August it’ll all be very very relevant.
Basically, we all know that Wolverhampton Wanderers are already promoted. But the final automatic spot is still up for grabs, as is one playoff place. The Championship is a wonderful league, and one which [...]

EPL Ramblings – Title Race Back On & More…

By: Wayne Farry | Comments No Comments

So the title race is back on. Obviously. After Liverpool’s win at Old Trafford it looked like they’d got their foot in the door, but after the paltry performance by United at Craven Cottage and ‘Pool’s demolition of Aston Villa it is, without a single doubt, wide open.

Premier League Weekend – Previews & Predictions

By: Wayne Farry | Comments 3 Comments

Warning to all blog readers, this is one long motherlicking preview. I’ve gone through every game this weekend and it’s taken me frickin’ ages. So prepare yourselves for one hell of a read.
Anyway, another Premier League weekend is upon us. After the distraction (brilliant distraction, at that) of the FA Cup and the Champions League [...]

Its time for Our El Classico, Our Eternal Derby

By: Rob | Comments 19 Comments

Biggest game of this weekend, by quite some distance is the biggest game of the season. Make no mistake, when Man United play Liverpool, the world watches. Just like Barcelona/Real, Boca Juniors/River Plate or Rangers/Celtic, this is one of the great “derby” matches. The two most succesful clubs in English football, going head to head [...]

EPL Ramblings – Talking Rubbish And Transfer Gossip

By: Wayne Farry | Comments 3 Comments

Another round of ramblings here at the EPL Offside. My promise to keep this as regular as a fibre lover’s bathroom goings was ultimately fruitless, but now seems like a better time than ever to post some utter drivel. I’ve finished college for the day, but am still using their computers for my leisure. Beating [...]

Will Anyone Have The Balls To Take Job At Chelsea?

By: Wayne Farry | Comments 9 Comments

I’m not going to rehash over the details of Scolari being sacked. We all know why, pretty much, and Rob has covered it fucking brilliantly over the past few hours. Props to Rob for that.
After Rob put forward the theory of whether or not the new Chelsea manager can give them what they need, I’ve [...]

Is a quintuple possible?

By: Rob | Comments 5 Comments

Sir Alex Ferguson, who memorably guided Manchester United to the Treble in 1999, thinks not. Although his Manchester United side sit top of the Prem, in the last 16 of the Champions League, in the Carling Cup Final, still in the FA Cup and are holders of the World Club Cup, The scot played down [...]

EPL Ramblings & Transfer Round-Up

By: Wayne Farry | Comments 5 Comments

So it’s finally over. The end of some of the most exciting, albeit slightly fictitious reporting on Sky Sports.
Finally, Arsenal confirmed the signing of Andrei Arshavin from Zenit St. Petersburg today. After weeks of painstakingly boring negotiations (for the watching fans at least) both clubs finally came to an agreement for the tiny Russian captain. [...]
