Following on from an article on this very site which I respectfully disagreed with, it seems to me that Revisionism is prevalent in modern football. Whether it be a defence mechanism to cope with loss or the delusion that things can and will only get better it worries me that legacy’s can be lost in […]

When you go to watch your team you often meet characters like this, but it isn't too often you get to capture it on film. A sneaky QPR fan turned his attention away from the 3-1 defeat to League Two outfit Port Vale and captured a Rangers fan who was attempting to let Neil Warnock […]

If you've ever read any of my writing previously you'll know I'm prone to mention various elements of pop culture, music, film or television as references in my writing, sometimes even how they coincide with each other. Along with football, writing and the occasional book, those few entities make up the majority of my hobbies, interests and general […]

On the eve of a new Premier League season, two sides are enjoying a free-ride from many football observers. I aim to set the record straight, but I maintain an open mind, so if you think I am wrong, please comment. I’ll start with Birmingham City. Twelve months ago, the Blues were looking forward to […]

For a club that has had an unimpressive record in Serie A over the years, Brescia has a proud soccer history. Home of Andrea Pirlo and the last club for the legendary Roberto Baggio, the Rondinelle return to Serie A for the first time since the 2004-2005 season. Unlike most clubs that spend their first […]

Wednesday is here, and time for the EPL Talk team to tackle the strength of the league. No league in the world has the kind of depth the Premier League has four through eight. Today, Laurence McKenna, Kartik Krishnaiyer and myself talk about Aston Villa, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, and Tottenham and pick which teams […]

The prolonged negotiations between Fox Sports International and ESPN over the sublicensing of Premier League TV rights for United States television appear to be over, at least for the opening weekend of the 2010-11 EPL season. ESPN presenter Max Bretos has announced that ESPN will show the Premier League games this weekend between Tottenham Hotspur […]

What a fantastic crowd at the New Meadowlands Stadium as over 77,000 came to see the US National Team take on a young and hungry side as Brazil is looking to get back to the flair and fun from many sides that have worn those lemon shirts in the past. Tonight we see the start […]

A new Premier League season brings about many new arrivals and one of them which is always a money spinner for clubs are the release of football kits. But recently what is becoming more and more apparent is the alarming rate of more Premier League releasing home kits and third kits every season. A guide-line […]

Articulate, funny and an enthusiastic celebrator of his team's goals, Martin O'Neill is one of the most popular men in football. Having done a superb job at Leicester City, and a very good one at Celtic (despite quite heavy spending) he was linked with the Manchester United job in 2002 (before Ferguson stayed on) and […]

We're just days away from the beginning of what will be another fantastic Bundesliga season. Current holders Bayern Munich, who also reached the Champions League final and lifted the DfB Pokal, will look to continue their domestic domination in the new season and once again compete for European glory. Meanwhile, Werder Bremen, Wolfsburg, Schalke, Stuttgart […]

After a successful World Cup run that saw Germany put four past Australia, England and Argentina, Joachim Loew will know that he still has the support of the DfB and the backing of all of Germany to lead Die Mannschaft on to further success in 2012 at the European Championships and in 2014 at the […]

Bologna is a club which has to establish itself in the Serie A, too many times has it finished 17th (like last season), scraping enough points to remain the Serie A. Now, with Sergio Porcedda as president of the club, Bologna are beginning to make some smart moves on the transfer market, and building a […]

After a long, hot summer filled with plenty of football, we now stand between what's left of the work week before the Premier League returns with guns blazing, before Arsenal look like world beaters for four months on all those pristine green pitches before the weather turns, and before your least favorite post, Premier League […]

I've been going through a 80's fascination the past few weeks. No, I haven't been getting the styling gel out to give myself a Flock Of Seagulls hairdo, but I have discovered (better late than never) a 24/7 music station on Sirius-XM called "1st Wave," which plays new wave music from the 1980's on a […]
