So its another all-big-four matchup this weekend, as Liverpool take on Chelsea. Its probably a bit to much to ask for a game like last seasons Champions League second leg (above), but it does serve as a nice reminder that not EVERY match between these teams is a dreadfully boring draw.
The clubs have, in [...]

So the big talking point of the day, is the apparent “proof” that Man United get more stoppage time when they’re down than when they’re up. Of course, this has been suspected and pointed out before, but now, apparently it is backed up by statistics.
As Chris on the Front Page via The Guardian has [...]

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, [...]

My God, they’ve had a roller-coaster season. And today Newcastle United found themselves condemned to Championship football after losing to Aston Villa. Middlesbrough join the Toon in the second tier, and despite Hull and Sunderland both suffering final day defeats, it was enough to keep them in the top flight.

All jokes aside, We wish Joe the best and a speedy recovery.
The Newcastle boss [...]

Newcastle United had to call off training this morning when Geordie Striker Andy Carroll and French midfielder Charles N’Zogbia came to blows after a late tackle from the former on the latter. N’Zogbia is reportedly trying to get out of Newcastle, and perhaps he felt that giving a local boy a bit of a thumping [...]

I was going through my meagre living space earlier on, and I found a T-Shirt – wouldn’t have meant much to most people on first glance, but it was a Portugal Shirt. In fact it was a Portugal shirt from Euro 2004.
Euro 2004, of course provided one of the best games of football you are [...]

John Terry and Nemanja Vidic will both miss the upcoming Chelsea/Man United match as both were sent off in today’s games. Terry was sent off towards the end of Chelsea’s 3-1 win over Manchester City, which to no-one’s surprise was opened with a Robinho goal against the club he almost signed for. Vidic meanwhile was [...]

By: Rob | 1 Comment
Joey Barton has been given a complex 12 game ban by the FA after his assault on former Manchester City teamate Ousmane Dabo. I say complex, because instead of doing the thing that we could all understand and giving him a 12 game ban, the FA have decided to ban Barton for six games, with [...]
