Apologies to those of you who were expecting to hear a couple of additional EPL Talk Podcast episodes this week. We'll have one up this weekend (either Saturday or Sunday) with another one to follow shortly afterwards. A perfect remedy for a long holiday weekend and a lack of Premiership football. The reason for the […]

My favorite English team, Manchester City is in negotiations with PSV to bring one of my favorite players DeMarcus Beasley in as the new the left winger for City. Beasley has been riding the pine this year in Holland and with the transfer deadline a few hours away, Stuart Pearce is desperate to make a […]

Breaking News. The Tevez and Mascherano signings are now official. The two Argentine national team players will make their debut for West Ham at home against Aston Villa on Sunday, September 10th.

Wolff joins an illustrious list of American players including Cobi Jones, the most capped player in US history in being rejected by a work permit to play in the UK. Thus Wolff's move […]

While the newspapers are abuzz with transfer speculation surrounding Carlos Tevez, David Trezeguet, Ashley Cole and others, it was refreshing to read an article in this morning's Independent Newspaper about Portsmouth trying to sign Ghana captain and midfielder Stephen Appiah.

Gary Richards, the former QPR, Wycombe and Marlow Town player — and now co-host of The 2 G's radio show — will be interviewed Thursday afternoon for an upcoming episode of the EPL Talk Podcast.

Two years ago when the worldwide (evil) empire of Manchester United dumped on Malcom Glazer I felt that patriotism forced me to defend him. True, I had hated Glazer from the word go, when he took one of my favorite pro sports teams the Tampa Bay Bucs and ruined the uniforms and colors but that […]

Totenham 0-2 Everton Tim Howard posted a clean sheet as Everton won its first match at White Hart Lance since 1985. Watford 1-2 Man United Jay DeMerit played a full 90 minutes as Watford fell short in an upset bid versus Manchester United. Wigan 1-0 Reading Bobby Convey started but was subbed out in the […]
