On Saturday, Manchester United's Nani scored a goal against Tottenham Hotspur which was extremely controversial and will be the topic of many conversations over the next few days. Looking at it again and again, the goal was a result of poor sportsmanship by Nani and a mix-up in communication between Spurs goalkeeper Heurehlo Gomes and […]

As the trio on the EPL Talk Podcast mentioned in the latest episode, it's been a long week in terms of there being little major news breaking and not a lot of football on television. But now that Saturday has arrived, we're graced with the familiar return of the Premier League. Today there are several […]

In a worrying development for Ian Holloway and Blackpool, club captain Charlie Adam will take his club to a Premier League arbitration court next week over unpaid bonuses. Adam is set to take the club to court over unpaid payments after the Seasiders avoided relegation from the Championship. While Adam of course is right to […]

After the Italy – Serbia match was abandoned due to fan trouble, people were unsure what UEFA would do about the entire situation. But UEFA have decided, and there will be punishment for both sides, not just for Serbia. Here's an official UEFA statement regarding their decision. "The Control and Disciplinary Body has decided to […]

Der Bundesliga continues with a massive match-day ten. Bottom-feeders Koln host Hamburg, Kaiserslautern take on Gladbach in a tough relegation six-pointer, Frankfurt visit St. Pauli in a tough mid-table battle, Wolfsburg host Stuttgart in one of the games of the weekend, Werder Bremen take on Nurnberg, and Leverkusen travel to Schalke in what will be […]

Bayern Munich produced another strong home display following their 2-1 win over Werder Bremen in the DFB Pokal. One of the poorest, more drab first-half displays I've ever watched ended with a sweet Demichelis goal to put Bayern Munich 1-0 up from the very first corner of the game. After the break, Bayern Munich played […]

When the creators of Special 1 TV chose Jose Mourinho, Wayne Rooney, Sven-Goran Eriksson and Sir Alex Ferguson as some of the main characters of the show, it was an incredibly wise decision not only because they're wonderful characters but also because they're in the news all the time. All four of them have been […]

It's safe to say that this year's promotion class has been a revelation. Newcastle will of course, always be a top-flight side for whom relegation is an aberration, but both West Brom and Blackpool have been a breath of fresh air in the way they've consistently played attractive football. It would be a shame if […]

By all accounts Stoke have been one of the sides underachieving so far in the Premier League. One of the more active teams in the transfer market over the summer, many expected the Potters to push for a top-half finish this term, but as of yet they have shown little to suggest they are capable […]

Argentina legend Diego Maradona has admitted that he does want to manage in the Premier League. It’s sure to be a statement that will raise a few eyebrows, but would any Premier League club really want the man, who’s infamous hand-ball effectively knocked England out of the World Cup, in charge of their club? Speaking […]

No-one can deny the impact that Craig Bellamy has had on Cardiff City this season. The man on loan from Manchester City has given the whole club a lift and helped them make an excellent start to this year's Championship campaign. Dave Jones' men sit level on points with Queens Park Rangers at the top […]

For a seemingly middling, 13th placed promoted team from La Liga Adelante with a 2-3-3 record, Hércules Club de Fútbol has debunked the increasingly popular theory that there is little competitive balance in Spain's top division. A two-goal victory at the Camp Nou against FC Barcelona, a 2-0 win over Sevilla, a 2-2 draw against […]

Newcastle and Sunderland...where to begin? They may not be the most recognisable teams in the world and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of people in the world that have never even heard of these two places. They sound quite simple settlements, yet the history in the North East England is spectacular and you'll […]

Saturday's late game features Tottenham's visit to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United in arguably the weekend's most entertaining contest. Manchester United are coming off a decent enough week which saw them finally win away in the Premier League at Stoke City by the score of 2 goals to 1. Their midweek Carling Cup […]

The quest for the MLS Cup began last night with a late arriving crowd, an ironic "One Goal" MLS playoff video, and a match of two teams with vastly different playoff histories and playing styles. The end result was a slightly disjointed match that put the Colorado Rapids up 1-0 over the Columbus Crew. The […]
