With Arsenal’s win sending them top of the pops last night, pressure now lies with United to produce the goods against a Liverpool who have all hands back on deck and firing(?)… not to mention their desire to break into the top four again. If they can combine, Torres and Gerard should give Vidic and [...]
This week the lads at Heads or Tail take a look back and discuss the hot subject of the week, brutality. While Valladolid’s use of force on Portuguese pin-up boy Cristiano Ronaldo has generally been condemned in the media, their coach Onesimo claims CRon is a provocative player who got his justs worth… I’m claiming [...]
Expecting to get a result when you visit Camp Nou is almost as dangerous as bragging to a mob boss about your conquests a week ago with his 18yr old daughter and if you can somehow stay alive or manage to flee the planet after pulling off such a feat, you’re almost deserving of the [...]
While the lads at Heads or Tails reckon we’re stuck in a twilight zone; that being in August all Spanish media say the same thing: “A new era of football adorns us, ‘The Galacticos’ will dominate the world blah, blah, blah”… 6 months later those same Galacticos are no more revered as “terrestrial beings”, instead [...]

Sitting bottom of the league with your club in administration isn’t an easy pill to swallow and it only get’s harder for Portsmouth this weekend when Alex McLeish’s Birmingham come to town… or does it. The Blues have lost their last three away games and are struggling to find that invincible away form they started [...]
Today’s history lesson kids comes courtesy of our friends at Heads or Tails. They tell us of a certain cheese eating manager whose family renounced their Spanish heritage after the civil war in 1936 and fled to France. They also informed us of the historical rivalry and the bragging rights that drive a match between [...]
Short and sharp this week, our amigos at Heads or Tails were really impressed with the Cristiano Ronaldo show last week against Villarreal and this week they expect easy wins for the two Spanish giants… and this is how they picked the rest of them. Predictions: Sevilla 3 v 1 Athletic Bilbao Atletico Madrid 1 [...]
I’ve dropped the ball a bit lately and haven’t had much of a chance to review any of the weekends matches from any of the leagues. What can I say… your sister is really frikin hot and been taking up all my time! Oh and here are tonight’s Champions Leagues picks which you probably thought [...]
I predict: Everton 1 v 2 Man Utd Arsenal 2 v 0 Sunderland West Ham 1 v 1 Hull City Wolves 0 v 2 Chelsea Portsmouth 2 v 2 Stoke City Blackburn 1 v 0 Bolton Aston Villa 2 v 0 Burnley Fulham 2 v 1 Birmingham Man City 2 v 1 Liverpool Wigan 1 [...]
With the first match of the 2009/10 A-League finals series merely minutes away, I have to admit that this season, at best, I’ve only managed the odd cheeky live stream from my work desk in the middle east and read some pre-match, post-match reports. So today, I ain’t going to harp on about who should [...]
The Champions League is back tonight and if you haven’t already had an aneurysm cause of the rush of blood, then sit tight… tonight may just be your night bro! Lack of matches and change of knock-out format aside, tonight’s games will pit a couple of stars against the teams that made them who they [...]
WARNING: THIS POST IS HUGE! Today our amigos at Heads or Tails warn us to expect Barcelona’s first defeat of the season and a chance for Real Madrid to close the gap at the top of the table to just 2 points! Barca are short on defensive players the likes of Dani Alves, Abidal, Pique, [...]
The action continues mid week with some awesome matches to further shape the look of the league table again. Of particular interest are the clashes between Villa and United, which always go down to one goal separating the two teams, Chelsea’s visit to Goodison Park, which ended like this last round and of course the [...]
My heart says Arsenal will pull some magic out of their demoralised hats [like here], cause I want to see a three way tussle at the top of the league… and there’s nothing wrong with a three way, no matter which way you look at it. My head however says go against the might of [...]
