Thanks to TheOriginalWinger, they uncovered this incredible video of what Gresty Road looked like in 1979. In the 1979 BBC Great Railway Journeys of […]

It’s a feature of human nature that we are quick, in the heat of the moment, to see our point of view over another’s. However, the mature person is able to see, after some introspection, the extent to which he is culpable. Professional athletes often lack this maturity. The lore of Emmanuel Adebayor includes tales […]

The Fire Bob Bradley movement has returned front and center. This movement’s proponents continue to advocate the termination of the current US coach while offering little advice in the way of a realistic replacement.

Emmanuel Adebayor answered his critics in spectacular fashion Saturday afternoon in one of his best performances ever on any football pitch during Manchester City's incredible 4-2 win against Arsenal.

It seems strange that a team that has gained 22 points from a possible 24 is not yet guaranteed World Cup qualification. Whilst it is true that England, Netherlands and Spain have perfect qualification records, Germany might feel like they have also done enough already. In fact they face a tense climax to their qualification […]

Lennon's cross arcs over the box. It hones in on Steven Gerrard who waits just outside the crowd. He jumps, coils his neck and smashes the ball toward goal. His header flies down into the net. 2-0 to England. I'm an American, but I still get chills when Gerrard scores for his country. His header […]
