Arshavin or Cesc? Who is the more deserving for the Ballon D’or?

Gunners Today 22 October @ 01:03 PM EST

At the Euro 2008 Semi Final, I love this picture! Thanks to whoever who took it.

Two of Arsenal's holy trinity have been nominated for this prestigious award. The third component of this trinity, Robin van Persie  curiously has been ignored. Since November 2008, Robin has been the most consistent Gooner full stop.

The Sweeper: The Threat of Match-fixing in British Football

Pitch Invasion 29 September @ 08:48 AM EST

Just last week, UEFA announced 40 further investigations into match-fixing claims, but as Jonathan Wilson points out in the Guardian, this has elicited little interest in the British press. Wilson notes that even though most of the concerns are related to Eastern Europe, "fixers" have been moving westward for some time with German referee Robert Hoyzer jailed for his role in match-fixing a full four years ago.

For the interview with World Soccer, Reid was manager of Thailand, a job that he combined with punditry on BSkyB and for Coral/Eurobet Bookmakers, and things. Click to continue reading...

An Early Look at the Title Rivals

ManUtd24 09 September @ 06:30 AM EST

By Gareth Freeman

United's own start to the season may not have been as impressive as it could have been. Granted they've won three out of four but the loss to Burnley was as big a shock as we've had all season and the manner in which they defeated Arsenal was not as convincing as perhaps it could have been.

A FIFA Tweak Of The Rules To Cause Chaos In World Cup Qualifiers #

football is fixed 03 September @ 04:19 AM EST
Excellently, the conclusion to the European World Cup 2010 Qualifiers are a mathematical diversion of some consequence.
And all because of one little FIFA rule - that only eight of the nine second placed nations will move forward for the Play-Off head-to-heads in November.
So all your column inches of projection and requirement are mindless chatter as a thoroughly systems thinking approach with a dose of specified game theory is the only way to strategically analyse or plan ahead. Click to continue reading...

When The Two Sevens Clash #

The bookmakers were dreading the match at Portsmouth yesterday.

Manipulated Markets And Mashing It Up In The Moss #

Veikkausliiga Round Four Preview part 3

Nordic Fotoball News 05 May @ 04:20 PM EST

HJK v IFK Mariehamn, Wednesday 6:30pm

This is, somewhat surprisingly, a top of the table clash. IFK have already beaten last season's champions, drawn with one of the favourites for this season, and had a regulation win over wooden spoon-chasers KuPS. This puts them level on points with HJK, who dropped their two points at home to draw specialists TPS.
