By Phil West So, this weekend, Wembley. The FA Cup is down to four teams, and they’re all top half of the table, but with fortunes going in wildly differing directions. Here are our four favorite storylines, in the form of simple and not-so-simple questions, to watch for — assuming West Coasters can stay awake [...]
Tomorrow, before most of the Yanks are awake, I will be waking up my my beautiful wife with champagne. Is it her birthday? Well yes, it actually is, however this special champagne breakfast will be for something much more important than a silly birthday because . . . . Everton will have just won their FA [...]
By Phil West So, in all the Arsenal-Man City pre-match hoopla (and certainly with all the Balotelli post-match outrage), you might have missed this little day-of-match gem, in which Our Favorite French Manager gets all wistful about wanting to participate in the “head games” that accompany a title race. The immediate answer, of course, was [...]
During Saturday’s match against Chelsea, Wigan was on the wrong end of a missed call by officials that lead to Chelsea scoring their first goal. Both Ivanovic and Mata were in an offside position in the build up to the goal. After the 2-1 defeat, Wigan manager Roberto Martinez received an apology from the Professional [...]
After yesterday’s matches, Newcastle find themselves level on points with Tottenham for the final Champions League spot. What an amazing turn-around for the Magpies, who two-years ago were displaying their trade in the Championship. On form at the right time and with the best winter window signing of recent memory, Newcastle’s new number 9 has [...]
Speaking of not allowing Andy Carroll to hide behind the failures of Fernando Torres, we bring you this photo from Sports Direct Arena as Carroll is being cheered off the field following his substitution in the 80th minute. Wait, he’s not being cheered? Why are Newcastle fans raising their hands and smiling? They are smiling [...]
Manchester United striker, Michael Owen (yes he still plays there I checked), claims that he still has more to give and hopes to feature in the remaining part of this campaign. Owen, who turned 32 last year, is still nursing a thigh injury picked up in November and has only played 4 times for United [...]
As the title race heats up, results become vital. Manchester United was given a golden opportunity to ease three points clear with Manchester City drawing with Stoke. United was to take on Fulham, who boast the worst away record (maybe ever), on Monday at Old Trafford. During the match United sputtered through holding a slender [...]
Joey Barton was substituted in the 62nd minute of the match against Liverpool and was met with a chorus of boos from the home fans. QPR was down 2-0 and was in desperate need of a spark, and their captain was not performing. After the substitution of Barton, QPR quickly reversed the scoreline in thrilling [...]
Although I am not a Liverpool supporter I must give credit where credit is due. Singapore Reds Mr. and now Mrs. Han show there true colors as their wedding looks like Anfield had a spring cleaning sale. As inspired as I am watching this video I am torn by what the possible outcomes of suggesting [...]
By: Larry Chisholm My wife and I happened to be lucky enough to attend the 136th league meeting of Newcastle and Sunderland on April 3. This being my second derby, I was psyched for the chance to see the ‘Toon” play our biggest rivals. We donned our kits, and made our way down to the [...]
The FA Cup is known for its battles of “David versus Goliath” matches. These are mostly battles between lower league teams and Premier League outfits. However, this past weekend we found out that there was a match that took this a bit too literal. Not that Stoke is the David to Liverpool’s Goliath label, but [...]
