Derby County has announced that Billy Davies has left by "mutual consent" (the most over-used and illogical phrase since "weapons of mass destruction.") In other words, Derby sacked Davies due to the club's poor run of form this season (with just one win and that was at home against Newcastle). After Saturday's loss to Chelsea, […]

Good news for web surfers who are soccer fans. Next summer's Euro 2008 will be the first major international tournament to be broadcast in its entirety over the Internet. UEFA has developed a platform to show matches via pay-per-view according to computing.co.uk. For web surfers in the UK, the cost will be 1.50 GBP per […]

The reaction to Jack Bell's column and the lively debate this past weekend in the comments section got me thinking. A lot of the debate is whether Fox Soccer Channel should target the die-hard soccer fan as a viewer or the mainstream American who may only have a passing interest in the sport. My answer […]

The draw for the 2010 World Cup qualifying has been made, and we have all of the European groups listed over at our new sister site, World Cup Buzz (www.worldcupbuzz.com), which aims to keep fans updated on everything World Cup between now and the summer of 2010.

New York Times soccer columnist Jack Bell has written a column regarding how the sun has set on English soccer. But rather than use his column to focus on criticizing (deservedly so) the England national team, its tactics, Steve McClaren and the Football Association, Bell unbelievably decides to take some jabs at the Premier League […]

Some of you may remember Phil from the Soccer Shout podcast that was a daily listening ritual for many of you around the world. At the end of last season, Phil decided to hang up his podcasting boots to devote his time to a new venture. A social networking site for soccer fans entitled Clever […]

...but not before next season. At a news conference in Hamburg, Huub Stevens, the current coach of the Bundesliga's third-placed side said he would be returning home to the Netherlands at the end of this season to manage PSV Eindhoven. Stevens regretted leaving after just 1-1/2 seasons, but alluded to the fact that there are […]

Benfica midfielder Augustin Binya has been banned for six UEFA matches following his red card for a high challenge on Scott Brown in a recent Champions League match against Celtic. This is the correct decision on what can truly be described using that oft-thrown around term — horror tackle. As we showed in an earlier […]

I had a chance to do something today which I rarely get to do anymore. That's to sit and watch Fox Soccer Channel for several hours in a row on a day other than a Saturday or Sunday (when I'm usually glued to the Premier League). Of course, like many of you, it was a […]

During the past few weeks, EPL Talk ran a poll on this blog to find out how readers like you experience the Premier League — whether you watch it live, catch up with just the highlights, etc. Here are the results with 86 people voting.

By Jeremy Lay After two weeks with no matches, most of us are dying to get back- finally we have a weekend to look forward to! This week, I’d like to remind you about two sets of double fixtures that are coming up. As the league has done a better job at scheduling this year, […]

English Football suffered an embarrassing home defeat to a good Croatia side Wednesday night. While I believe Croatia is as good if not better than England at the moment, losing to the Croats at Wembley when they have already qualified for the Euro 2008 finals and the Three Lions had everything to play for is […]
