    Was That Really England?

    As the hangovers ebb away and the clean-up begins, a nation struggles to reconcile their fuzzy memories of the game with what they believe they know about their team. Was that really England crashing home four goals against Croatia? Were those white shirts actually passing the ball around the...

    Stupid England Get There Slowly

    The signs of improvement are visible, but Fabio Capello's mission to revitalise the England team is still some way from completion. There were moments, during this frustrating, attritional non-contest, of class and sophistication, but sporadic style couldn't eclipse the fact that this side are...

    INBREDS PLAGUED BY DISEASE Colchester United fans are suffering from genetic diseases following years of inbreeding, an investigation has found. A BBC documentary says they are suffering acute problems because incest is emphasised over health when breeding. The programme shows Colchester...

    Hottest Burger In The World (some rude words)

    This is in Brisbane, shall I have a go when I get there in a months time and report back? Yeah, like f*** I will! was digging around the zGeek forums the other day when I stumbled across one of the funniest post-hot-food-eating articles I've ever read. "Cranky" had heard about the "Off the...

    This is a vital season for Arsenal

    At this time of year, particularly in the UK, it's not unusual to be struck down by the post-holiday blues. Everywhere you look you can see the sad, sun-tanned faces of those who have let their problems ebb away on a hot beach, only to return home to the sickening blow of normality. For some...

    Ronaldinho

    It still remember it vividly. I was at a friend's house on a Saturday night in 2005 and we were having a glass of wine before hitting the town. Being of Spanish descent, she had the Real Madrid - Barcelona game on the television. We had no plans to watch the whole match, we were supposed to...

    It's good to talk

    I noticed tonight on Irish tv, there were at least 3 instances of adverts encouraging people to talk more if they have problems that are affecting their daily lives. Always hearing people harping on about their physical health, and how they need to do more running or gym work is all well and...

    There are no flags on cars and no posters in windows.

    There are no flags on cars and no posters in windows. No sweeping advertising campaigns and no collectable badges. Here in the UK, you wouldn't guess that we're just hours away from the start of a major football tournament. Ok, so the nearest that the England team can get to European involvement...

    England v United States

    And so the recovery continues. Fabio Capello's patient, paternal treatment of the blundering failures who shamed the nation last year is, little by little, beginning to pay off. He hasn't asked them to play in strange formations, he hasn't made sweeping changes, he hasn't even announced a...

    Bristol City v Hull City

    There can’t be many people who, when the Championship season began, thought that today’s SG$120m Play-Off Final would be contested between newly promoted Bristol City and almost relegated Hull City. In fact, if you’d have asked an expert, or even if you’d just have asked me, you’d have been told...

    Doctors Secretaries mistypes

    Some of these are absolutely classic - restores your faith in the NHS! These are sentences typed (wrongly) by medical secretaries!!!! 1. The patient has no previous history of suicides. 2. Patient has left white blood cells at another hospital. 3. Patient's medical history has been remarkably...

  14. Front 2 on friday?

    I would like to see Kanu with Barney, he seems to give us more of an edge than Walker, and he was in great form before the hamstring inj, his physical presence is more than jimmys too. Thoughts please

    The Championship

    After the scenes of celebration that greeted their dramatic play-off victory last May, even the most cynical of Derby County's fans couldn't have imagined the humiliation that was to come. Ironically, if they'd lost that Wembley final, Billy Davies would still be in charge, picking up the...

    The Curse Of White Hart Lane.

    When rumours of talks between Tottenham Hotspur and Luka Modric's representatives leaked out, I assumed foul play. With Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool all thought to be sniffing around the young Croatian midfielder, surely Modric's agent was releasing an SOS call to the big guns. A kind of...

    Arsenal v Reading

    Arsenal returned to winning ways at a freezing cold Emirates Stadium with a convincing 2-0 victory over a Reading side who are nose-diving at the worst possible time. Only a combination of fine goalkeeping, desperate clearances and Arsenal's own profligacy prevented this from becoming a...

    Chelsea v Everton

    Chelsea hauled themselves to within two points of Manchester United with a 1-0 victory over Everton that I would be tempted to call dour, if it hadn't have preceded the least informative press conference since Rafa Benitez told us nineteen times that he was concentrating on coaching the team...
