Maicon’s agent knocks City’s stature…no joke

Premiership Talk Blog 03 November @ 05:33 PM EST

Having been linked with Manchester United and Real Madrid earlier this year, Inter Milan's right back Maicon has now found himself linked with none other than Manchester City. His agent, Antonio Caliendo, has quashed these rumors, suggesting that City is too small of a club for Maicon.

"Every day there's a story linking Maicon to a different club," said Caliendo.

Berbatov is…The Continental

Dirty Tackle 02 November @ 06:58 AM EST

Well hello there.

I see you've caught me talking on the phone. Perhaps you are extremely jealous that you don't have my undivided attention? ... No, I'm not on a phone sex hotline, I'm talking to my cousin Timitar about my fantastic goal against Blackburn. Ha-HA! It really was quite impressive.

He's Alright That Roy Hodgson

For Girls Who Can't Do Football 30 October @ 03:19 PM EST
There was a time when I thought Roy Hogdson was a bit of a joke.
Over time, however, I have come to think he is a bit of a dude.
I mean look how he has stabilised Fulham.
Picking them up out of the relegation zone.
And now a nice steady level of performance. Click to continue reading...

This diving business is becoming a joke…

Inthestands.co.uk - Football Banter For the Masses - Football Blog 29 October @ 10:01 PM EST

I was browsing over at 3nil when I found this joke of a dive, it is taken from Shakhtar Donetsk vs Dynamo Kyiv in the Ukrainian league. The Kyiv player Vukojević (in white) gets sent off for this prod in Kucher's back, but it is the Shakhter players response that is an absolute joke.

It appears that reputation has come before Ognjen Vukojević of Dynamo Kyiv, as he is known as the Croatian equivalent of Gattuso.

Top five Marlon King jokes

Off the Post 29 October @ 04:03 PM EST
Featuring two courtesy of the man himself 1. "I'm just out of your league. I'm a millionaire." Yes, the biggest joke of all is disgraced King's attempted chat-up line. 2. So Marlon King was jailed for failing to score at a club. Which one? Wigan, Hull, Middlesbrough? 3. Sky Sports News is reporting that a top footballer has [. Click to continue reading...

The Carling Cup: A Barrel Of Laughs

They say that laughter is good for you.
But whoever would have thought that the Carling Cup could offer such a barrel of laughs?
For example, I'm not great Chel$ea fan as you know, but I'm enjoying their 4 -0 drubbing of Bolton.

You can never accuse Mike Ashley of having ever understood the soul of Newcastle United.

South African Grannies Team to Open World Cup 2010?

WorldCupBlog 26 October @ 02:10 PM EST

Move aside Bafana Bafana. The world has a new favourite South African team, and their name is Vakhegula Vakhegula, which means "Grannies" in the local Xitsonga dialect. Why? Because they're a team of grandmothers of course, ranging in age from 40somethinng to 80something and competing in an eight team local league in around the Nkowankowa township, 600 kilometers north of Johannesburg.

The Point is

All Four One, and One Four All! 26 October @ 04:30 AM EST

1. A 2 Goal cushion is totally enough to kill off the game. We simply must stop letting teams think they have a chance even when they're two down.

2. We need to buy a goal keeper. Almunia is inadequate, Mannone is too young, Fabianski is scary and Sczesczny cannot get a jersey because the Nike cannot spell his name.

West Ham 2-2 Arsenal : Sloppy Arsenal throw 2 points away

Arseblog 26 October @ 02:38 AM EST

After the late equaliser in the Champions League game last week the manager and a number of the players went on record saying we couldn't afford to be that sloppy again. We would have to learn from the mistake we made.

Sadly for us that lesson hasn't been learned yet and while a draw away from home isn't a bad result on paper, the circumstances of yesterday's 2-2 with West Ham make the result most frustrating.

Liverpool beat United in topical pranks, actual match

Dirty Tackle 26 October @ 01:20 AM EST

Not only did Liverpool shockingly defeat Manchester United 2-0, bringing an abrupt end to their apocalyptic free-fall and the imminent sacking of Rafa Benitez, but their fans also beat United fans by being the first to barrage the pitch with the inevitable storm of beach balls.

Though the word was that United fans had bought up all the official Liverpool beach balls like the one that scored Sunderland's winning goal the weekend before and had been eagerly planning to mock their Anfield hosts with them on Sunday, it was Liverpool fans in the Kop end that were first to toss their banned inflatables just before kickoff.

Wellington 6 v Gold Coast 0: Smashified

A seat at the A-League 25 October @ 04:57 AM EST
Oh and Gold Coast played so well too.
Foxtel has been having outages (Sydney and Brisbane and other parts of Australia) all week so I saw little of this game and less of the Sydney v Brisbane game. However, something happened.
It was amazing to see former Roar 2nd keeper Scott Higgins letting them go through his legs and all sorts. Click to continue reading...

Champions League: Liverpool 1 Lyon 2 – Post-match discussion

Anfield Red 20 October @ 03:45 PM EST
I'm extremely frustrated and very bitter at the moment, so I apologise if I keep this short. To review: Liverpool lost the match; Benitez brought on Voronin for our best player of the night (Benayoun); the zonal-marking was a joke; Gerrard went off with another injury inside the first 20 minutes. Did I mention we [. Click to continue reading...

LLTO La Liga Tuesday Review

La Liga Report 20 October @ 06:42 AM EST

Last week I went on and on about how Sevilla is the most overlooked club in all of La Liga. They have beaten among the best (Real Madrid) and going into last weekend they were among the hottest clubs in all of the world. Well you can say that I gave Sevilla the dreaded curse as well. The club's winning ways would come to an end last weekend with a loss to Deportivo La Coruna.

Rafa Benitez vs. the pathetic bureacrats at the FA: I know who I'm backing....

Liverpool Kop 16 October @ 06:15 AM EST
It has been revealed that Liverpool Manager Rafa Benitez has been charged by the woefully out-of-touch FA for blatantly inoffensive glasses joke after the Spurs game at White Hart Lane in August. I didn't think it was possible for the FA to become any more pedantic and pointless that it already is, but I was wrong. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool New Boy Aquilani Pulls of Nifty Trick and Finally Kicking a Football (Pics)

Caught Offside 16 October @ 05:48 AM EST

Not since Sean Dundee (joke) have us Liverpool fans been quite so enthusiastic to see a player get on the field of play wearing the beloved Reds jersey than with the belated anticipation of Alberto Aquilani finally being fit enough to kick a ball. Note the nifty trick he appears to have pulled off in the first image and the way he appears to be hypnotizing Martin Skrtel in the second.

Don't waste your valuable time reading this. Really, there's no punchline, not even a half baked joke or modestly amusing article. Feel free to let me know how much time you've wasted. You'll never get it back, you know. The news at Spurs is: nothing. England? Well, all power to them and good luck to Crouch [. Click to continue reading...

USMNT Reactions after Honduras game

Jared Montz’s Weblog 12 October @ 07:26 AM EST

Tim Howard's joke about the Honduras fans being there early at 6:30 and him thinking he thought the Honduras fans must have thought the game was for 7 was great!

Donovan was right about possession at the end of the game. I was very impressed to see the team keep the ball and kill off the game.

So, the US has made the World Cup. Now what?

Fighting Talker 11 October @ 09:14 AM EST
Now what? Well, first of course there is the matter of trying to win the group with a victory Wednesday at home over Costa Rica. The match, to be played at Washington's RFK Stadium, won't do much at all for the USA with regard to World Cup seeding I don't believe. And the US will be facing a team with everything to play for, as Costa Rica tries to avoid finishing fourth and having to face a South American club in a playoff (Uruguay sits in that 5th CONMEBOL spot right now, but hosts 4th-place Argentina in the finale Wednesday).

Planting Seeds At The World Cup

Twohundredpercent 10 October @ 05:07 AM EST

By Wednesday night the make up of the automatic UEFA qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup finals will be known and it is at least possible, if not likely, that there will be one or two surprises amongst them. Serbia, for example, only need one win from their two remaining matches against Romania and Austria to condemn France to second place in their group, whilst it is almost certain that, in spite of having two comfortable home matches against Hungary and Malta as their final two fixtures, the "lottery of the play-offs" will be the best that Portugal will be able to manage and they might yet even lose out on second place to one of Denmark, Sweden or even Hungary.

Mitchell on LTF, Chris Coyne and the Glory's great crowd

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 04 October @ 09:35 PM EST
BEFORE we get into today's juicy blog, should give a mention to the guys at Glory Football Tees and the new shirt available from their site (left).
The joke obviously refers to the antics of Chris Coyne against Brisbane a couple of weeks ago.
These guys aren't guys who live in China, these are Perth Glory fans (the type of guys who don't know what a bandwagon looks like) who use the profits for the creation of Glory banners and the Perth Glory fanzine - which always gives FP a bit of a laugh. Click to continue reading...
