It's no secret that the Prince of Darkness, Avram Grant, is not a pleasant man to talk to. He's a guy who wears all black all the time, and when Chelsea plays during the day, I'm surprised that he even comes out of the dark tunnel to manage. He has no personality whatsoever. None. Zero. […]

With five match days left and 15 points to play for, have you looked at the table lately? Fans hear or read the word relegation and surely visualize three, yet looking at the current Serie A table that number should be ten. More... There is a log-jam of teams below and even Napoli in 9th […]

Watching the recent Sky Sports interview with Tom Hicks, the first word that jumped into my mind after listening to the first two minutes was greed. Hicks talks about the poor results Liverpool CEO Rick Parry has achieved with sponsorships, in Asia, the stadium and how the team has fallen behind the other top clubs. […]

Setanta Sports is now available via another source other than DirecTV and DISH Network. It's a little known company named GEK TV, who is offering the Setanta channel via their set top box (similar to the IPTV technology used by the now defunct ITVN). GEK TV caters to the Asian market in the United States […]

Real Madrid announced on Thursday that they will be traveling to Colombia to face local club Millonarios this coming Agusut 7th. The announcement was confirmed through Spanish sports daily As.

Sky Sports must be rubbing their hands with glee. With Thursday night's important 1-0 win by Chelsea over Everton at Goodison Park, this ensures that there'll still be plenty to play for when Chelsea battles Man United on April 26. Chelsea currently sits just two points behind Man United, although the Old Trafford club has […]

Today I stumbled upon a rare gem about US Soccer on the front page of the normally American phobic Soccernet.com. (You have to click on the US Soccer tab to access the excellent columns by Jen Chang, Frank Del Apa, Steve Davis and others). Jason Dasey has written probably the best piece I have ever […]

Tottenham Hotspur has announced it'll be unveiling its new kits for the 2008/2009 season in a unique way. They'll be debuted live on Spurs TV, which will be available via a free webcast on Tuesday, May 6. The new Spurs 08/09 home shirt will then be available on May 10, while the away and third […]

The dirty secret about ITVN, the company that brought Setanta Sports via broadband to TV set top boxes in North America, is that its sister company (XTV) was an adult entertainment company. Both companies used the same technology. The set top boxes looked identical (except for the stickers on the front). Even the ITVN remote […]

After reading a thread here on the site, I did a bit of research to find information on the top paid players. No one on Arsenal's squad makes an appearance until 60th place, where captain William Gallas pops up. No big surprise that last year's Footballer of the Year, AC Milan's Kaká, tops the pile […]

After a thread on our sister site, EPL Talk, I did a bit of research to find information on the top paid players. No one on Arsenal's squad makes an appearance until 60th place, where captain William Gallas pops up.

Now that England appears to be leading the pack with some of the best club teams in Europe, it's time the country gets with the times and does something that the Spanish, French and Italians have mastered for some time. That's publishing a daily sports newspaper with an emphasis on football. Incredibly, despite the popularity […]

The number of Premier League teams heading to the United States this summer on preseason tours isn't too impressive thus far. First, Aston Villa announced they may have to skip their American tour if they qualify for the Intertoto Cup. Now Derby County has said that it has canceled its plans to head stateside and […]

In the latest episode of "I'm On Setanta Sports," Wayne speaks, Arsene and Jose get into a spat, Sven plays guitar and didgeridoo, and Rooney gives us the word of the day. I don't know about you, but I'm still enjoying each episode. They've made Jose Mourinho more popular than he was before. I can't […]

The EPL Talk Podcast, the only football interview show on the Internet, is set to return to the airwaves next week. It's been over a month since the last episode, and it feels good to be back. Many of you may know that I took a break for a while due to health reasons (after […]
