A ballboy at last night's match between Arsenal and Leeds positioned himself in a rather
unfortunate spot in front of this Nike advert. Shades of the Thomas Cook advert at Manchester City.

It's a foregone conclusion that Spurs manager Harry Redknapp is the FA's top choice for the
vacant England job. But after a 0-0 draw against League One side Stevenage in the FA Cup and a 5-2
loss to Arsenal at the weekend, some doubts have arisen as to whether Harry is truly the right man
to lead England.
Angered by a Seattle ballboy who didn't hand him the ball exactly how he wanted before a
seventh-minute throw in against the Sounders on Friday night, Houston's Colin Clark called the kid
a "f***ing f****t." The gay slur was picked up loud and clear by pitchside microphones for the
nationally televised match (video here -- NSFW language, obviously), so everyone watching at home
immediately knew what Clark had done.

Downright classy stuff from Houston Dynamo midfielder Colin Clark who, during Dynamo's 2-0
defeat against Seattle Sounders on Friday, yelled 'f**king f*gg*t' in a young ballboy's face after
the kid had the temerity to drop the football near him rather than directly at his
feet while Clark was trying to take a quick throw.

This weekend during a match between Seattle and Houston on NBC Sports Network, Colin Clark called
the ballboy a, "fucking faggot". His voice was very clear on the broadcast. Today the MLS suspended
Clark for three games, fined him an undisclosed amount, and will make him attend sensitivity
training.
There was a bit of a skirmish on the internets earlier this week regarding Sulley Muntari's shin
guards and whether or not he was wearing those given to him by Inter. Turns out they were just a
standard Nike model with some aesthetics bearing a resemblance to those of his parent club.
Yesterday, he then tried to give his shirt to a Chievo ballboy after scoring the lone goal in
Milan's win.
Pep Guardiola is suffering a burn out
This has been a hard season for Barcelona when you think of how they have reshaped the sport. At
the forefront of it all is their former number four who took the coaching reins in 2008. In four
years, Pep Guardiola transformed this team into an unmistakable presence.

From ballboy to the saddest-looking Champions League-winning coach you're ever likely to see:
Pep, you've come a long way baby...
