What a way to officially debut as the national team coach of your beloved country hey!? Well i guess it helps when you have some of the world best youngsters on your team, but that’s just one of the perks when you’re Argentinian I guess. On another note… and I don’t want to sound like [...]
I’m not really a fan of international breaks, especially during the few days leading up to them; I mean there’s only so many ways to retell the same ‘ol story, so I’ll tell you what really boils my blood instead. Being sold a heap of self-righteous hype by a so-called kit “designer”… oh and on [...]
If results go their way, the Socceroos could be one of the first teams to qualify for South Africa [TWG] …but does qualifying so early hold as much significance as having it all come down to a gripping two match playoff, with penalties to decide the winner? [Watch this]… it doesn’t even come close! Armani, [...]
When an arrogant, loud mouthed player thinks he is above his coach and team, it’s either time for him to move on… or time for him to receive an ego-grounding size 10 boot to the head, Sir Ferg style! (Remeber this?) Yep that’s right folks, Australia’s most outspoken party-boy, Ljubo Milicevic, has, wait for it… [...]
The F1 GP is getting ready to rip-roar through the city of Melbourne this weekend and there are going to be a load of media shindigs to attend. So why not get in on the action I hear you ask? Well it’ll be hard to beat Melbourne Victory’s favourite lemon, Danny Allsopp, cause like an [...]
If this really is England’s new kit, then consider me the next kit designer for Umbro or the new King of Football kit designs… and I’ve never designed anything in fabric! [EPL Talk] New kit teaser: In true Australian fashion, Ben Buckley should tell the other Asian nations competing for the 2018 & 2022 World [...]
It must blow balls to be Newcastle United at the moment. Had they managed a win on the weekend, which looked promising in the first 30 min of their match against Arsenal, they would have been among the top of the relegation battlers hoping to stay in the Premier League next year… instead, they now [...]
So it looks like throwing caution to the wind works every now and then (hence our gameweek score), but it seems to work even more when you throw it to Huntelaar… in general, he’ll take it [caution] and slam it for six so that no-one has a chance in hell of stopping it! Heck, Marcelo’s [...]
Week in and week out, Barcelona continue to amaze the heck out of me as they seduce and destroy teams so elegantly. Managed by their ever classy pimp Pep Guardiola and boasting the services of Henry, Messi, Eto’o, Alves, Xavi and Iniesta, I even hear that in some parts of the world people pay good [...]
I’ve hastily been scouring the internet over the last week or so, for images of all the players that were wearing Nike’s latest creations, the Mercurial Vapor Superfly’s and surprisingly like a police investigation at Tony Soprano’s house, the more I dug, the more I seem to find!
Here’s what I’ve got so far, feel free to add to the list if I’ve missed some players and I’ll source images to include in future posts.
Someone get me some motion sickness tablets… I don’t know if I can handle any more roller coaster rides this season… and while you’re at it, get Gerrard a bravery medal or a purple heart or something. He is singlehandedly killing off teams in the Red’s quest for Premier League immortality and if they happen [...]
An inspired Luka Modric gave Tottenham a much fancied win over north London rivals Chelsea last night. It was the first time the Lillywhites had beaten the blues at home since 2006 and by doing so not only did they give Guus Hiddink his first taste of Premier League defeat, but they also squandering Chelsea’s [...]
Um… what’s going on? United just lost their second league match in a row. The last time that happened was four years ago when Wayne Rooney was an angry teen who was being disciplined for his adolescent stupidities… hmmm doesn’t look like much has changed! Plus, could all this talk of winning a quintuple be [...]
So I’m playing catch up again this weekend and by now you all probably know about the UCL draw that took place on Friday in Switzerland and this is how the quarter-final fixtures looked: Quarter-Final draw:Manchester United v PortoAfter overcoming Inter in the last 16, United probably have the easiest run to the finals from [...]
We’re throwing caution to the wind… again… cause this week we’re just about ready to try anything to get some results. Lately, predicting scores for La Liga has been like trying to guess who the next president of Real Madrid will be. So this is what our friends over at Heads or Tails had to [...]
