The rumor mill was in full tilt Tuesday with the news that national team member Charlie Davies was sent by his French club Sochaux to train with D.C. United in Florida, with a successful training leading to a year-long loan. Yesterday, the Black-and-Red confirmed Davies was in camp and was being given a fitness tryout […]

I am back with a fresh post for Gameweek 26. Please note that there were a couple of changes since my Monday posting, including Fox switching the delayed Spurs & Villa matches, and ESPN2 adding the Sunderland-Stoke Saturday morning match. I'm feeling pretty pleased with my 4-star choice from Gameweek 25, as Sunderland and Chelsea […]

When news broke that Newcastle had accepted a £35m+ offer from Liverpool for striker Andy Carroll I was intrigued. I said to a friend at the time it was win-win for the club, they either became £35 million richer or kept Andy Carroll. The deal was finalized close to 11pm GMT and Carroll became the […]

Only one of the league's top five stumbled mid-week, with Manchester City being drawn at St. Andrew's, though Tuesday and Wednesday's matches were overshadowed slightly by Wednesday's news, when the best right back in Premier League history announced his retirement. Because the sometimes controversial way Gary Neville went about his business, many will overlook him […]

Have a day off and stuck under a few feet of snow that seemingly won't be cleared out until the middle of next week? Just need a place to chat during the matches while pretending to work? As yesterday, join me again this afternoon for a live blog of today's 6 EPL matches. We should […]

With the league title slipping away from Real Madrid's hands, their two cup competitions, the UEFA Champions League and the Copa del Rey, could be the tournaments that they can realistically expect to win. Real can stamp its name in the final of the Copa del Rey on Wednesday night if they can navigate a […]

Later this week I'll be interviewing Robbie Earle, the former Wimbledon and Jamaica international footballer, who has been a pundit and TV co-commentator for the past decade after retiring from playing in 2000. Recently he was let go by ITV by allegedly breaking ticket regulations, but now he's back on television which is just one […]

During one of my many online jaunts reading the news of both the EPL and MLS, I came across a story about the appointment of former Ajax winger Aron Winter as head coach of Toronto FC. The photograph accompanying the story denoted a further two men, one of whom Paul Mariner I recognized from his recent […]

While the MLS transfer window is still open for another three months, the international transfer window closed Monday. If you are a fan of an international league, you know how crazy this January transfer window was with money and players being tossed about in a dizzying fashion. And while no American got over £70 million […]

So Roman Abramovich has decided its time to start spending money again, has he? About time too, many Chelsea fans might say. The press have seen this as indicative of him being prepared to rebuild Chelsea again. Seventy five million quid is certainly a big financial commitment but the problem is, it goes nowhere near […]

On February 2, 2007, Palermo traveled to Catania’s Stadio Angelo Massimino for a Sicilian derby that unfortunately changed football throughout Italy. The fixture commenced without Palermo supporters in the stands. They were not able to get into the stadium until the start of the second half. Testimony from the visiting side claimed this was caused […]

Everyone was curious to know what the big announcement was coming from the front office of Major League Soccer this week. Some were expecting the announcement of the 2011 regular season schedule, or possibly the long awaited new playoff format. Well you would be wrong on both accounts. The big announcement shared Tuesday was the […]

One goal. One moment. One shot. One piece of history. Michael Thomas, the man who will always be remembered as the scorer of THAT goal, the one that won Arsenal the First Division title in 1989 in the last few seconds of a match against Liverpool at Anfield. Of course, Thomas accomplished much more than […]
