Each weekend when she sits down and watches about five minutes of a game […]

The parties in Swansea may have ended but the smiles on the faces of their fans are probably still as broad as they were the moment Scott Sinclair sealed his hat-trick on Monday. The pain of defeat however can take longer to heal and Kristian Downer was able to cajole one Reading fan Russell Hammat sharing […]

A photo has been leaked of what appears to be Chelsea's new away shirt for the 2011-12 season. Despite someone on another site joking that the shirt looked like it featured solar panels, I quite like it. The black shirt features the classic three Adidas stripes down the sleeve.

What do Martin O'Neill, Alan Curbishley, Avram Grant, Roberto Di Matteo and Steve McClaren have in common? They're all football managers who are looking for a new team to manage. But as is often the case, their names are bandied about with several clubs, not just one. Some may be more desperate to manage the […]

With the continuing separation between the have and the have nots in the Premier League, I think that it is curious to ask fans about what they expect from their clubs. Obviously, every fan wants their club to win and be successful, but in this current era in which the top of the EPL consists […]

Take a close look at the above photograph to see evidence of the "democracy" of FIFA. It's the ballot paper for the FIFA presidential election.
