The year is 2010. Fox Soccer Channel still doesn't have a podcast, which would have been a perfect medium to tell people about going to HD, and to answer questions about Fox Soccer Plus. And neither Fox Soccer Channel nor the Premier League have an official iPhone app, although in case of the Premier League, […]

We may have gotten the right result against Unirea, but if you didn't watch that match, trust me, the outcome doesn't reflect the awful, numbing football we sat through for most of ninety minutes. Where was the team […]
