Arsenal fall short once again

February 27, 2011

BIRMINGHAM CITY upset the odds at Wembley today after a stunning victory over overwhelming favourites Arsenal in the Carling Cup Final. The victory was thoroughly deserved, as they exhibited both tenacity and élan in equal measure to lift their first major trophy in 48 years. Much of the focus in the build-up to the game [...]

Defeat leaves Arsenal without a trophy and puts Fabregas’ future in doubt

February 27, 2011

Leading up to the Carling Cup final between Arsenal and Birmingham City Gunners boss Arsene Wenger suggested the London club were capable of securing a quadruple of titles in 2011.

Blackpool to stay up or Chelsea to finish outside top 4?

February 25, 2011

As I watched the Blackpool v Tottenham game this week, I found myself confronted with a dilemma. Usually the team I would be supporting would be fairly straightforward based on my own team’s (Newcastle) position in the table, and therefore which result would benefit us most. However, with Blackpool I have found this slightly different [...]

Is a prolific striker the missing piece to Harry’s puzzle

February 24, 2011

Tottenham’s 3-1 defeat at Blackpool last tuesday was certainly a shock to most neutral fans, but not to the Spurs faithful. Over the years, Tottenham’s consistency in the league has proved their biggest problem, where it seems they are accustomed to great results followed by a relatively poor one the following game all to often. [...]

What’s Catalan for hypocrite? That drone you hear is Barcelona.

February 24, 2011

For a club supposedly steeped in honour, Barcelona don’t half make an unseemly racket. Club president Sandro Rosell’s ridiculous claim that Arsenal are immoral in pursuing Jon Toral, one of their youth players, is typically at odds with Barca’s hollow image of a shining example of what a football club should be. Arsenal have paid [...]

Are UEFA pricing the younger generation off the terraces?

February 23, 2011

After an enthralling week of Champions League football that saw enormous victories for two English clubs, attentions were turned rather abruptly when UEFA slapped a monstorous price tag on a ticket for the final. Having secured a welcome 1-0 win at the San Siro Tottenham are becoming a team that many football fans would like [...]

Misguided Football League wrong to penalise Plymouth

February 22, 2011

It is no secret that the football authorities of this land are as useful as chocolate dildos but yesterday’s announcement that the Football League were deducting 10 points from Plymouth Argyle was further confirmation of that fact. The penalty was an automatic one, foisted on the Pilgrims after they appointed administrators to help them out [...]

So right it should be Ron’

February 22, 2011

Christiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi sit atop football’s Everest as the world’s two supreme players.  Some observers have tentatively suggested others are equally deserving of breathing such rarefied air. Messi’s team mates at Barcelona, Xavi and Iniestia, are certainly frequently mentioned in such regard. However, the comparison b [...]

Why Leeds fans hate the scum

February 21, 2011

“You have to respect Sir Alex’s achievements at United though, don’t you?” Well no, not at all actually. I can’t understand why any normal person wouldn’t hate the scum. They represent everything that has been wrong with English football since 1990. The evil empire, and not a football club, but a Chinese tourist’s idea of [...]

Make way for Jose

February 21, 2011

Villarreal’s Joan Capdevila must surely be cherishing every Spanish cap he receives from here on in. The 33 year old will only have one or two more years left playing for his country or even football all together. This opens the door for a new Spanish left back to fill the void and there is [...]
