Yes, again. Last month, I started what I hoped was an epilogue to Port Vale's takeover saga. Then Plymouth Argyle's concluding fortunes took priority and Vale took their place lower down the article queue. But not before I wrote the following: So, farewell, then, internal strife at Port Vale. For now, anyway.

Was Aaron Ramsey to blame for Colonel Gaddafi's death?

Some say Libyan tyrant Colone Gaddafi was killed by insurgents, others by NATO air strikes. However, MirrorFootball has uncovered startling evidence to suggest there might be a third party involved: Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey!

Serie A blog: How Roman candles lit up goalless gloom

For the new season, MirrorFootball is teaming up with some of the blogosphere's best new writers to bring you even more great football reads every single day. Today it's our new Serie A blogger, footballitaliano.

Yesterday in Plymouth, 'Cornish-based property developer' Kevin Heaney appeared to finally disappear from contention as the part-saviour of the Argyle Football Club, as he should have done months ago in Plymouth. And, it would seem, 'Devon-based entrepreneur' James Brent appeared to finally re-appear as the preferred bidder for the club, as he should have been months ago in Plymouth.

A Time for Tactics — How Liverpool Will Deploy Against Stoke

Before playing Stoke at Anfield last season, people were just starting to get a hint of how silly it was to question Kenny Dalglish's tactical ability. After Liverpool's 2-0 victory , the critics and cynics were left kowtowing to the King.

The human mania for classification manifests itself in countless ways, and one of the more peculiar is somatotyping: organizing people by body shape, usually with the belief that there's some correlation between body shape and personality. These types tend to come in threes. In The Antichrist Nietzsche wrote that "In every healthy society there are three physiological types, gravitating toward differentiation but mutually conditioning one another .

Brazilian journalists who flew to London for the Champions League final were struck by the importance given in the English press to the recent scandals surrounding FIFA. The story is not playing anything like as big back home.

European cynics might argue that this has something to do with a certain South American tolerance of corruption.

Gary Neville might be as polarizing as Marmite, but even the most hardened of cynics would be hard pressed to deny the man some recognition for his years of service to Manchester United.

There is a distinct possibility that Cesc Fabregas will leave Arsenal this summer.

Persistent rumours originating from people with ‘inside knowledge' suggest that our Number Four may finally be on his way back to Barcelona.

Cynics will say the deal was done last year – that Arsène Wenger persuaded Cesc to stay for one more year by agreeing to let him join Barca for the 2011/12 season.

Persiraja made it through to the semi finals of the Divisi Utama play offs and drawing 1-1 with group winners Persidafon in Jayapura.
Persiram were considered to be favourites by cynics out there, they're from Papua, but they got beat by Gresik United.
Despite enjoying home ground advantage and despite boasting a pretty decent squad Persidafon pulled piss poor crowds for the play offs.

Back when Kenny Dalglish took over the managerial role of Liverpool during early January, many including myself had doubts about his footballing knowledge with 'The King' being out of touch with the game for over a decade. But then it hardly took me 30 minutes of football under him to be convinced to write my first post in over six months.

I've been off-line for most of the last month – my PC is older than my jokes and I can't afford a replacement on this money. And I was hopeful that, beyond Plymouth, there wouldn't be much football financial mess to cover. Some hope. There was good news. The fact that West Ham's losses were only £20.

Valentine's Day 2011 saw an announcement anticipated but met with sorrow around the football world and mourned with open grief in his native Brazil. Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima stated at a hastily arranged press conference in Sao Paolo that he was retiring from the sport. The 34-year-old was clearly distraught and broke down several times as he explained the reason he can no play longer the game so dear to him.

Apologies for being a bit M.I.A over the last week. Here's a scarily efficient round-up of the events we may have missed:
Steven Pienaar
Say what you like about whether we need him or not - he cost £3 million, for goodness sake. We could sign him twice and it'd still be a good deal.

Desppite attracting crowds of 96,000, 71,000 and 71,000 to their last three games in Jakarta during the AFF Cup the Indonesian FA have decided to play their Olympic Game Qualifier against Turkmenistan on 23 February at the Jakabaring Stadium in Palembang.
The PSSI say they have taken the passion of the fans in Palembang and the weather into account.
