CSKA coach Luboslav Penev suspended a bunch of players on the team recently for late-night partying.
Then the team went over his head and reinstated the guys.
Penev subsequently resigned and the team is not honoring it.
Craziness.

Whilst Arsene Wenger's managerial ability is regularly praised, his wit does not always seem to be appreciated. After all, English is the man's third language and yet his cunning with the language is something I can only aspire to.
Indeed, the only manager who been at the helm of his club for the same amount of time is Fergie. Click to continue reading...

I was sat on the tube into work this morning and some moron opposite me was reading The Daily Mail. Anyway, to cut a long story short there appeared the headline 'The New Fritzl' which apparently referred to Phillip Garrido and his suspected attacks on Jaycee Lee Dugard.
But it struck me, considering the media furore it could be Eduardo. Click to continue reading...

Alright, so the angry Hitler videos are totally played out, but this was still funny. Hitler as a Millwall fan and the one who planned the violence on Tuesday? Sounds about right.

This sparked off the Upton Park carnage. We should have given Hitler the ticket.. Click to continue reading...

Let's take a moment to try and see into the mind of the man that bought the Manchester United shirt in this story from The Guardian. He went to a sports store and spent fifty-five pounds on a replica shirt - fifty-five pounds! - and, instead of having the name of his favourite player or even his own name printed on the back of it, decided to have "YSB" (which stands for "You Scouse Bastards", apparently), "96″ and "Not Enough" printed on the back of it.

Don't think the prospective WAGs will be flocking too fast though.

subject RUMOR:Osorio probably to last rest of season and a hitler vs nyrb video
im not sure if this information qualifies to be posted on your website but i have a friend who works with the red bull company and he says that in austria, they will keep osorio until the end of the season because it wont be "profitable" for the team to have a new coach late in the season before they sack osorio from his position.

Amigos de TM, desde Grecia Homero dice presente, la gira de Boca no se detiene y mi viaje tampoco.
Después del paso por Austria, un muy lindo lugar pero muy frio con el futbol, no les llama la atención como a nosotros y tras jugar con el modesto Lazk, en la ciudad de Linz, en un partido donde el team de Basile fue el dominador pero no pudo marcar muchos goles, solo uno y de Battaglia y donde el Coco sigue probando cosas, especialmente en la defensa y en la delantera, en este partido volvió al arco Javier García después de casi 8 meses, no tuvo muchas complicaciones y las que le llegaron las resolvió bien, buen dato para el DT, igual de los dos suplentes me quedo con Ayala.

In a week when the heavies of European football struggled to make any significant impact around the globe*, comes another surprising result straight out of the bowels of Ireland. Shamrock Rovers, a team whose name sounds more like a wrestling move or a Robbie Williams album title than a football team, made a good account of themselves and put up an almighty battle against the squillion-dollar boys of Real Madrid.

Bernie Ecclestone and Max Mosley: Making Sepp Blatter look like Pete Rozelle
Bill Archer, Andrew Jennings and many others love to focus on FIFA and its corrupt functionaries like Sepp Blatter, Jack Warner, Chuck Blazer, et al. Others prefer to turn their guns on Fed Heads like Dr. Click to continue reading...

AAAAHHHHHHHH I AM ARTUR BORUC AND THIS IS A LIST OF THINGS THAT MADE ME ANGRY THIS WEEK:

Hitler, though dead (and for some time), has commented on everything from Tottenham being rubbish to Tottenham being rubbish again. This time he's quite upset that his minions were unable to sign Kaka to his rapidly growing stable of players who aren't worth half the price he paid for them. He's got a mouth that [.

Thanks to Chelsea Offside reader Rosh for pointing me toward this absolutely hilarious clip. From the movie Downfall outstanding flick, by the way Hitler learns of Lampard's imminent move to Inter Milan. Warning: This piece contains harsh language, so those 12 and under are encouraged to check it out.

Hitler even less amused by sale of C-Ron than Fergie... Made us laugh, anyway - ah, the simple joy of ironic and crude subtitles.... Click to continue reading...

Adolf Hitler and Malcolm Glazer have a lot in common; both are small coiled springs of incomprehensible rage, and they most definitely do not respond well to disloyalty. Here then is a slice of nice internet-conjured amusement, re-subtitling ace war movie Downfall to capture the board's rising contempt for a certain Portuguese winger's capricious, money-grabbing nature:
Beware parents, this clip features some good old-fashioned family racism, as well as language that would make a sailor blush, so please exercise extreme responsibility before showing this to anyone under 5'7". Click to continue reading...

ESPN is pretending that they had nothing to do with the Jemele Hill piece which I commented on earlier. Rather than displaying the text as was originally published and explaining the error, they have just suspended her. She has sort of apologized for her comments (she regrets her lack of judgment and writes that she is a good person while criticizing people who have accused her - pointing out spelling mistakes and arguing that more racism doesn't help, which is fair).

Warning, non-soccer related:
My post isn't very good. I couldn't really pin down what I was trying to say but did feel like posting a comment on the issue.
I just read an article which was posted less than 1/2 an hour ago on deadspin, in which ESPN's Jemele Hill compared cheering for the Celtics to cheering for Hitler. Click to continue reading...

You may rememeber this truly stunning video, which summed up West Ham's miraculous survival ahead of Sheffield United last season:
Now this video has been remixed for an altogether different purpose - that of a format war. After Warner Bros's announcement last week that is was dropping HD-DVD and going with Blu-Ray discs, it appears that the next 'VHS vs Betamax' row is over before it's really begun.

I'm not sure why this guy even bothered to write this. Well, that's not necessarily true, I have my suspicions, but that's not the point. It makes about as much sense and has about as much class as thanking Hitler for being the bad guy in World War II. I mean, if you're going to praise Fernando Salazar for his effort against the Galaxy in the SuperLiga final, that's one thing, but to drag Beckham's name into it, especially since he was not only injured, but was clearly crushed that he couldn't help his side win, is just classless.
