Dear Liverpool, Please Sign Clint Dempsey and Let Us Forget About This Nightmare. Sincerely, a Concerned Fan
According to this article by Jonathan Gottschall, fiction is good for you. Liverpool coach Kenny Dalglish apparently agrees, considering his choice of tactics and personnel in today’s woeful (to coin Alan Dymock) 2-1 loss to Chelsea in an FA Cup Final that, frankly, left a lot to be desired. King Kenny’s head must’ve been filled [...]
TweetVideos: May 2nd Will Live Long In the Memory for Fans of European Soccer
If ever one needed a reminder of the spectrum of emotions available to the humble fan when it comes to soccer, then the day of Wednesday 2nd May will live long in the memory. It was an evening where so much happened and most of it is hard to describe. Drama, danger and grown men [...]
TweetThis Just In: Some Women Like Soccer Regardless of Men’s Opinions
When one starts a comment with the preface “It’s going to be a little unpopular to say this…”, then one might want to rethink continuing one’s statement.

TweetWill Newcastle, Chelsea or Spurs Finish Fourth in the EPL?
This evening Newcastle United take on Chelsea while Tottenham Hotspur take on lowly Bolton.

TweetWhat Was Said After the Manchester Derby
It was a game which went some way to deciding the fate of the English Premier League trophy. However, while Sir Alex Ferguson rues his team’s poor performance, Roberto Mancini is still claiming that United are the ones to beat. It is canny to say this, but the jig may well be up for the [...]
TweetManchester United Left to Rue Poor Tactics After 1-0 Loss to Rivals City
For all the bluster and build up the Manchester Derby was a game where Manchester United sat in and played some limp soccer.

TweetCould Celtic’s 3-0 Win Over Rangers Be the Last Old Firm?
Yesterday Ally McCoist, the manager of Glasgow Rangers, cut a weary and haunted figure. Notably aged and understandably anxious he had to sit through his side succumbing to a hefty loss at the hands of their nemesis, Celtic. This was the last Old Firm meeting of the season and Celtic, recently declared as Scottish champions, [...]
