2010-03-12 10:50:43By:Ian
Saturday night sees Philippine boxing legend Manny Pacquiao take on Ghanaian Joshua Clottey for the WBO world welterweight belt, though boxing may not be the only thing on Pacquiao’s mind at the moment, something that opponent Clottey has seized on to talk up his chances of scoring a massive upset when they clash at the Cowboys Stadium in Dallas. Clottey warnd Pacquino gently “Pacquiao has three things on his mind : Me, Floyd Mayweather and an election he wants to win.” Stated [Read more] -
Do Arsenal really need Fabregas?
2010-03-11 14:47:05By:Jens
I’ve seen some odd things in football in my time. I watched Torben Piechnik falling over a lot and being spectacularly inept at Anfield during Graeme Souness’ time at the club. I was at Prenton Park on that incredible night when bottom of the Championship table Tranmere Rovers gave Premier League Southampton a 3-0 head start and came back to win the game 4-3 in the second half. I’ve seen Tranmere play in a major cup final at Wembley (and, predictably, lose) and I’ve even [Read more] -

This week’s round of International matches did not really gift football followers any deeper knowledge of the 32 teams who will be participating in the Summer’s finals in South Africa, indeed it was pretty much a case of expected results for most of the teams down as the bookmakers favourites for the World Cup. Higuain shocks Germany on home soil Arguably the biggest shock of the night came in Germany where Diego Maradona’s Argentina finally seem to be finding some form ahead o [Read more] -

Observations on an amazing sporting weekend
2010-03-01 11:41:54By:Ian
Well, I’m not usually a betting man to be honest. I have the odd flutter now and then, but nothing serious (as my win against losses record will testify) but this weekend, I stuck a few quid into a new account, got the best betting bonus I’ve had in a long time and then took this mother of all free bets and wasted it backing Aston Villa to win the Carling Cup! Doh! It all started so promisingly too, especially when Vidic pulled down Agbonlahor. Quite why referee Phil Dowd didn’ [Read more] -

Sixteen of the twenty Premier League teams will be in league action at the weekend, with Manchester United and Aston Villa facing off at Wembley in the Carling Cup Final in what promises to be another frantic weekend of Premier League action.

Ferdinand's back means that he isn't
2010-02-24 14:21:53By:Paul
Newly appointed England captain Rio Ferdinand has been struck down with another back problem, ruling him out of Manchester United’s game last night with West Ham and the Carling Cup final with Aston Villa at the weekend. Although there has been precious little information about Ferdinand’s fitness levels coming out of Old Trafford, there is a real worry now that Ferdinand’s back problem is a chronic issue and that he, like Ledley King with his dodgy knees, is only able to play [Read more]
