Just when you thought the Italian tactician and master of success couldn't get any more focused; England manager Fabio Capello has banned a fans' and players' favorite: the World Cup song.

Not content with prohibiting WAGs from attending the England base next summer, Capello is again trying to take the Englishness out of English football by restricting the players' voices.

As self appointed President of the 'Enjoy it' campaign and the 'This could be the year' Fellowship I look on with a certain detachment at our new friends in the media who are climbing aboard the Tottenham bus. Hanson, Lawrenson, even Lee Dixon and of course ex players like Lineker and Ossie Ardiles who touchingly still refers to Spurs as 'we'. Click to continue reading...

It doesn't take much to wind up the average football fan these days. The average football fan (a long suffering male who enjoys beer and has delusions of grandeur for his team of overpaid primadonnas) is drawn to controversial issues like a moth to the proverbial flame. There is little doubt then that the events of the weekend past will have left a lot of fans more than a little wound up.

We've linked up with a massive Birmingham blog, Joys & Sorrows. One of their readers off their forum, Nat, wrote a great article in relation to today's game.

In recent times

At the moment, Spurs are enjoying their most productive period since the days of Terry Venables, Lineker and Gazza.

Morning all, welcome to a new week and there are two big, big games on the horizon. For now though most of the chat seems to still be about Portsmouth.

Clumsy oaf of a falling over his own feet Portsmouth striker, John Utaka, claims that William Gallas admitted that he'd fouled him on the edge of our box.

One of the most upsetting things about growing older is that people who you have spent your whole life admiring, respecting or loving start to die. When you're a kid, the deaths of people don't effect you quite so much as your little brain can't cope with the emotion and you haven't had long enough to get to know the person involved.

No transfers. Not even any rumours. And this following a record number of clean sheets at home, and a seemingly endless run of one-nil wins. "All action"? Really?

Once again there is nothing to report from the Lane, so I'm just going to ramble away a little stream of consciousness - by all means duck out now and go youtube a Michael Jackson song or something.

Alan Green, 5 Live's football commentator, has a squat, piggy face. He looks a bit like an Ugnaught. In other words, he has the perfect face for radio.
I like Green, albeit less than I used to – these days he's too quick to anger, but at least he never sits on the fence; he always has an opinion, and that's what makes a good commentator. Click to continue reading...

If A.C. Milan are willing to offer a large sum of money for David Beckham MLS should grab it. He has had a great impact in creating hype for MLS throughout the world because of his celebrity status and obviously is still a very talented player, but considering his age and the return that MLS could get for his contract they should definitely sell him.

.You can always tell what sort of match it was by where it comes on the Match of the Day running order. I watched the Fulham game and knew we would be on last even though there was the traditional full programme, just like the good old days on Saturday afternoons.
A 0-0 draw is almost certain to be last anyway, even Hanson, a defender, still finds it hard to appreciate the qualities in a goalless encounter, though not as much as Lineker and Shearer obviously. Click to continue reading...

Martin Samuel from the London Times writes about how England are lacking in quality forwards and I agree with him. Wayne Rooney can't carry the team upfront by himself, and he really does seem to be more of a setup man then an out and out finisher. With Michael Owen not being fit again, I think Fabio Capello needs to look at either Jermain Defoe or Darren Bent. Click to continue reading...

The BBC have controversially given Aston Villa manager and Raymond Domenech lookalike, Martin O'Neill a written warning for breaking British broadcasting guidelines and stating that EURO 2008 has been ‘bloody brilliant' without England's talentless, overhyped, leaden footed, retards stinking up the tournament.

Lineker is look very happy with Bux a stunning model nearly half his age on his arm.
