In the same way that a classroom descends into carnage when a teacher leaves the room for any
extended period, the Tottenham dressing room has become a violent and confusing place while Harry
Redknapp is away attending to his legal affairs. Yesterday, Spurs winger Danny Rose posted a video
on his Twitter showcasing teammate Sandro's full range of high kicks and martial arts poses.
On the day Home United travel to Tampines Stadium to battle it out for the SLeague title I can
reveal plans for widespread football hooliganism that could bring chaos to public transport and
even see houses prices fall. A Singaporean double whammy.
While thousands of Home United fans are expected to make the journey east by bus and MRT hard
core Tampines hooligans are planning to give them a hot reception at various points in their
journey.

If there was a certain area in which Manchester City beat Manchester United so assuredly last
weekend, in one of the massive premier league results of recent times, it was the wings.
Where Ashley Young and Nani played the typical winger role, taking on Manchester City's
fullbacks, trying to win those one on one battles, Manchester City's wingers, James Milner and
David Silva, made a point of winning the game elsewhere certainly their involvement in the vital
goals that pushed the Sky Blues clear of United was a mastery of movement rather then setting out
to burn fullbacks.
Bottom of the league and calling for the managers head. Devastating depression is what springs to
mind flicking through the posts on the Rovers forums. With protests planned before and after the
game, some reckon it could get dicey around the stadium should Blackburn suffer a heavy defeat,
with some predicting carnage on and off the pitch.

with the expectations of a Mourinho coached side.
Tonight the New England Revolution will get set to take on the Philadelphia Union at PPL Park in
Chester, Pennsylvania. The Revs are coming off a 17-day break following the postponement of this
fixture due to Hurricane Irene two weekends past, while the Union are coming off back-to-back
league losses to Salt Lake and Columbus.
I think I've got post-traumatic stress disorder. I keep getting these weird flashbacks. Like,
I'm going along normally, minding my own business and then it's:

Not so good when you're in the supermarket, frantically searching the vegetable section for a
suitable candidate.
This transfer window has involved extreme amounts of rumors. And Capernicus was apparently
wrong, as the whole world revolved and devolved around Cesc.
Now that it's over, we can check the tally and assess the carnage most of which involve Luka
Modric's hopes and dreams and his sense of happy, which is unhappy.
Why Spurs and Arsenal have provided an abject lesson in how NOT to use the transfer
window
Amid the smouldering remains of the Premier League hopes of Tottenham and Arsenal, a lesson has
been learned in the boardrooms of White Hart Lane and The Emirates. That would be how and how not
to use the transfer window .
A slumbering summer appears to be slowly stirring from its sleep; stretching, yawning and having
a good old scratch of its knackers before assessing the carnage ahead. Though there have been no
confirmed incomings or "don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way outgoings", the cogs
appear to be creaking into action.
I know it's thoroughly distressing, though tempered somewhat by how much easier it makes things
in a way, to lose to the Sporks last night in Aggieland in the US Open Cup qualifier, but at least
this Sunday the Houston Dynamo will get to face an opponent that's at least a little
shorthanded.
Ian of the always relevant twohundredpercent—whose one-off media posts often make this blog
cringe with embarrassment at its own output exclusively on the subject—already spoke well to this
topic today so I won't add too much, except of course my own usual rambling take on things.
I don't want to argue shades-of-gray legal issues with regard to illegal feed farms.
