Once one of the country's most highly-rated young players, 32-year-old Michael Ball has been
punished by The FA for an offensive Tweet he sent to Coronation Street star Anthony Cotton.
WEEKEND WRAP
Carlo Ancelotti had been jobless for the last seven months, watching reruns of
'The Sopranos' and your aunt's episodes of Coronation Street up until yesterday. Ouiiiii, ce
n'est pas une blague... Paris Saint Germain officially decided he was the man
to take over the reins of former coach Antoine Kombouaré, who failed to transform
the Qatari-owned club into the new Ligue 1 Galácticos!
Oh come on, don't tell us you want to be reading about all these dull and never-ending summer
transfer sagas! Let's hop onto the Piqueira Lambo and
find out what they've been up to in Miami. As you know, Barca are currently on their US tour and
earlier this week, Puyol, Busquets and Pique all turned up to support Shakira's charity, the
Pies Descalzos Foundation, in aid of underprivileged children with a focus on
Latinos.
Like EastEnders or Coronation Street going on a summer break to Spain, Blackpool or Ireland, the
footballing soap opera has upped sticks for the summer.
A cast of thousands, a few suitably over the top villians, a couple of unlikely characters
attempting to play the hero and subplots aplenty.
You'd think that Saturday would have beeen a day of celebration. A vivid carnival of all that
is right with being Red and Mancunian. Big United larruped West Ham in the East End yesterday,
despite having been two down at half-time. And up in weird, charity-shop filled Retford, FC United
came back from a goal down to beat those muscular, flesh-devouring freaks from Worksop, thanks to a
last minute Jerome Wright penalty.
