We move along in our series with the Rapids, who wildly disappointed fans by slumping down the
stretch to miss out on the playoffs thanks to a closing day loss to arch rivals Real Salt Lake -
who have added insult to injury by making it to MLS Cup. Yeesh. For this autopsy/look ahead, we
turn to Class VI Grand Poobah Mark Bodmer.

It's been 10 years since Arsenal fell against Tottenham in the Premier League, and Saturday at
the Emirates was no different. In what was a bit of revenge for last year's 4-4 enthralling draw at
the Grove, Arsenal saw off Spurs 3-0, a scoreline that flattered the home side, while at the same
time could of been much worse.

After last season's 4-1 and 2-1 defeats to the hands of Liverpool at Old Trafford,
Man
United defender
Rio Ferdinand is ready for revenge.
Liverpool did the double over
United last season but we still managed to go on and win the
Premier League title. We may
have won the title but the defeats still linger in the memories of the United players and fans
minds.

The Alan Wiley drama finally came to a head with the FA charging Sir Alex with improper conduct
for questioning Wiley's fitness levels. It could impose a fine and a touchline ban.
"He just wasn't fit enough for a game of that standard," Ferguson said. "The fitness of the
players, the pace of the game demanded a referee who was fit.

"I wonder if that's an omen", I said to my lover as we passed a dead fox on our way up the Fosse
Way to the Walker's Stadium this morning.
It was only said in jest. I was feeling pretty optimistic as we looked forward to reaching
Leicester and sitting down to a cooked breakfast and mug of hot tea.

A fan can accept football illiteracy from its owners because they know the vast majority are only
in it for kudos or profit.
They can also excuse a lack of cash, if, like Bill Kenwright, they're in it mostly for love. Fans
can even live with pig-headedness, aloofness and a poor knowledge of the club.

What's worse than an international break? One that come with two essentially meaningless England
games. With World Cup qualification in the bag and nothing to play for but pride and a winning
streak, there's precious little to enthuse over. And, to add insult to injury, our star man Jermain
Defoe will miss both games with a finger injury.

Dwight Yorke had a great time at Manchester United, scoring an incredible 30 goals in his first
season with the club. 1998-1999 was a magic season for us and Yorke played a massive part in
it.
The goal that probably stands out in most memories is the equaliser he scored against Juve in
the European Cup semi-finals, after we had gone 2-0 in ten minutes in Turin.

How could the USL outwit, outplay & outlast the MLS in the 2008-09 CONCACAF
Champions League?
The answer is simple!
The level of play in the USL (as an alternative league) is
closer to that of the MLS, than many (in the USSF and MLS) would like to admit
to.

By any standards, the Summer of 2009 will go down as one of the most memorable seasons in American
Soccer history. Between the US Men's National Team's improbable run to the Confederations' Cup
Final, the release of Grant Wahl's The Beckham Experiment" and the re-entry of David Beckham to the
LA Galaxy, The Gold Cup, and the massive crowds that have attended top-notch Euro club friendlies,
there was more buzz, more visibilty, and more soccer in America in the last few months than any
other time is recent memory.

Steven Gerrard's wife Alex Curran just might have pissed off the whole of Liverpool by declaring
the city "rough". Adding further insult to injury, she added that "everywhere new that opens
attracts the wrong type of people. It's not nice, so I haven't bothered to go out". I have to
half-heartedly agree with her on this [.

It was a tough Sunday in many ways for the Miami Ultras. Once again we were invited to attend
Univision's Republica Deportiva for the USA vs Mexico Gold Cup final. Everything was great,
confidence was high. The Mexican fans chanted their typical Mexican tunes while the Ultras began to
drown them out with our incessant USA!

First of all I must apologise for the bad pun in the title, but like my title Newcastle
United football club have became a bad joke under Chairman Mike Ashley.
