It still feels like the biggest matches are ahead of us, but should be some interesting ones, especially at the bottom of the table, presuming United doesn't look ahead too much to Tuesday night. It's a shame about Blackpool's form. Monday night football comes back with a pretty strong match. Maybe LeBron will be Dalglish's […]

I don’t know where you live. I don’t know what the laws are or what is generally accepted versus what is not. I don’t know if gambling is legal where you are, or at least overlooked if it is on a small scale. What I DO know is that the Premier League season is a […]

A photo of Newcastle United's home shirt for the 2011-12 Premier League season has been leaked on the Internet.

So much so, […]

This was going to be the toughest road match for Real Salt Lake in their first International club competition. It’s always comfortable to be at home. Yet when you have to go down to Costa Rica and play in one of the worst road venues in the entire confederation of CONCACAF, to pull out a […]

There were several storylines that came out of the Bernabeu Tuesday night after Tottenham Hotspur sunk to a comprehensive defeat at the hands of Real Madrid.

Former Arsenal star Emmanuel Adebayor bagged a brace as Real Madrid destroyed Spurs by four goals to nil Tuesday night, a result that surely sends them crashing out of the Champions League. The second leg at White Hart Lane next week could well be their last match in the prestigious tournament for some time as […]

The United States lost a promising national team player today when Andy Najar officially announced he would represent Honduras in the 2011 Gold Cup and thus be eligible to play for their national team.
