If you think back to your childhood, Saturday mornings were an idyllic time, watching cartoons and other children's programming on television. When I lived in the United Kingdom in the late 70s and early 80s as a child, my Saturday morning experience included watching a TV show on BBC called Multi-Coloured Swap Shop with Noel […]

Having watched the gutless performance exhibited by the Wolverhampton Wanderers players yesterday, I was expecting a response but certainly not this. First off, Wolves is still in with a great chance of avoiding relegation and to get rid of the manager at this stage of the season defies logic. Mick McCarthy has throughout his tenure […]

Real Madrid's latest win (4-2 over Levante) gave Jose Mourinho's squad a 10 point lead (and a comfortable margin of error) over Barcelona in the race for the La Liga title. It would fair to say that Los Blancos are nearing on the league title after years of dominance by their bitter rivals from Catalonia. […]

Did you feel that? That little shiver down your spine as you clicked on this story to read it. Was it too much caffeine this morning? Or was it the sense that the beginning of spring and the MLS season are just around the corner. That's right, we are less than a month away from […]

Wolverhampton Wanderers today announced that manager Mick McCarthy has been sacked by the club after a devastating 5-1 home defeat in the local derby against West Bromwich Albion.

Milan and Juventus are currently the top two teams in the Italian league with the Rossoneri ahead by two points but the Serie A champions have played two more matches than their rivals Juventus.

Manchester City has a chance to regain the top spot in the Premier League today when they travel to Villa Park to take on Alex McLeish's side. The Scot's job is rumored to be on a razor's edge as is the jobs of the two managers involved in the Black Country derby played earlier in […]

I don't care which side you happen to support. If you're a Liverpool or Manchester United supporter, or just a neutral viewer, this is a dire day in the Barclay's Premier League. It's the day we saw petulance win out over professionalism, pettiness over peace. Today the Manchester United-Liverpool derby became less about the history […]

The biggest rivalry in the Premier League is, still, Manchester United against Liverpool. It's not your Manchester derby. Neither is it Chelsea against Manchester United. The Red Devils against the Reds remains at the top, featuring the two most successful teams in English football. Now that Manchester United has the bragging rights to the domestic […]
