Great Football Debate: #3 “One League To Rule Them All”
It's an international break! League One and League Two are still scheduled this week, but England's second tier has the weekend off and we have to wait for the debut of Sven (*sigh*) Goran-Eriksson, who on the plus side will probably provide me with plenty material to write about as the season goes on. So...
Paulo Sousa Sacked By Leicester City — The Right Move?
Three months and nine league games was all that Portuguese tactician Paulo Sosa lasted in the Foxes hot seat, as the club have announced that they are dispensing of his services as of today. This news is quite bizarre considering Chairman Milan Mandaric has insisted recently that Sousa would be staying, as well as urging...
Is Relegation A Certainty For Pompey This Year?
A massive apology for a lack of articles lately, I have recently started a master’s degree at University and I have also fractured my ankle (playing 5-a-side) as well as a number of other things that have been happening. But, I am back now and an article from Josh Ashdown of the Guardian recently appeared...
Great Football Debate: #2 “Republic Of The Fans”
Oh god. This is a bit of a pet peeve for me, it's not really a heated debate as such but it's something that grinds on me and when you realise what I'm talking about, it'll probably grind on you to. In fact it's something that should be argued, because it's usually the opening for...
Npower Championship Transfer Round Up: Winners And Losers
Well now that Sky Sports is calming down a bit from its day of "twist and turns" (sure), the transfer deadline is upon us and teams can no longer make any more permanent signings. The football league sides can still sign free agents and make short term loan signings, but any permanent signings in these...
Welsh Dragons Bellamy and Speed Look To Shake Up The Championship
It's a good week for Welsh football, as not only has one of the greatest ever Welsh players produced become manager of Sheffield United, but a Welsh striker of top Premier League quality has joined the Bluebirds. Gary Speed is expected to be named manager of Yorkshire outfit Sheffield United and Craig Bellamy will make...
Great Football Debate: #1 “Have You Heard That Footballer Is Gay?!”
As well as writing about the Championship (which ruined my accumulator at the weekend as I incorrectly predicted four results and got none of them right. Yes I've thought about writing up a letter of resignation) I thought I'd write about some of those talking points in football that are often debated, whether it be...
Leicester City Bought By Asian Consortium
Good God. The Premier League may be starting this weekend but the Championship is doing its hardest to get all the attention. It may be bad news for Bristol City today, but it's potentially good news for Leicester City who have found investment from a number of Asian companies, who are in a consortium led...
Steve Coppell Leaves Bristol City. Wait, What?
Well while many Bristol City fans felt that they had one of their best squads in years a few weeks ago, Steve Coppell has dampened hopes of promotion slightly by announcing his resignation today after only two competitive games in charge. Coppell claims, in his statement, that he has failed to become passionate about managing...
QPR Fan Loses His Cool After League Cup Exit To Port Vale
When you go to watch your team you often meet characters like this, but it isn't too often you get to capture it on film. A sneaky QPR fan turned his attention away from the 3-1 defeat to League Two outfit Port Vale and captured a Rangers fan who was attempting to let Neil Warnock...
