Dominic Wilcox is an artist who makes, among other things, watch sculptures the type which
operate better in a glass encasement than inevitably shattering against the nearest solid object.
He made one for football which was on exhibit in London recently.

We'll get some idea about how good Newcastle are against one of the top English sides tomorrow
afternoon when the lads take on Tottenham Hotspur in London. Papiss Cisse and Alan Pardew
during training yesterday But with a number of players missing, including Cheick Tiote, Yohan
Cabaye, Leon Best and Ryan Taylor, Newcastle will not be at their strongest, at least not in
central midfield.
Who spends the longest in front of the mirror?
It's an age old tool we've been probing our favourite 'ballers with for years, mainly because
we can't be bothered to come up with any better questions.
As you know, over the past few weeks we've been training Chris Cohen of 'Talking Balls' to do
our bidding (so we ourselves can spend longer in front of the mirror) and we're pleased to say that
he did a magnificent job of getting the goods from Manchester United's Tom Cleverley and
Liverpool's Jordan Henderson, when he cornered them on Wednesday at the launch of EA Sports Grand
Slam Tennis 2 in London.
Tottenham fans would have tuned in to last weekend's London derby at Upton Park in the hope of
witnessing two things –
- A defeat for the home side
- A solid performance from Harry Kane
Sadly we got neither with Harry starting the game on the subs' bench along with Ryan Mason but
both players got a full 90 minutes under their belt as Millwall saw off the challenge of
Southampton in last night's FA Cup replay.
Newcastle have a tough game in London on Saturday as they will go up against 3rd placed
Tottenham Hotspur, who have 50 points from their 24 league games. Papiss Cisse scores first goal
ever for Newcastle And Tottenham have only lost one game very early in the season at White Hart
Lane, when Manchester City took them apart 5-1.
Alan Pardew thinks the not guilty verdict of Harry Redknapp will lift the Spurs side on Saturday
against Newcastle in London. Alan Pardew doing great job on Tyneside Redknapp will likely be
the next England boss following Fabio Capelalo's resignation last night, and of course Pardew
has already been linked with the Tottenham job.
The big news yesterday was to do with Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp, and of course Newcastle
play Spurs on Saturday afternoon in London. Redknapp talks to press after being found not guilty
of tax evasion yesterday Harry Redknapp, the former Portsmouth manager and former Portsmouth
Chairman Milan Mandaric were both found not guilty of two charges of tax evasion [.
Just before Christmas Arsene Wenger made it clear that Chu-Young Park was now settled in London and
ready to step-up to the Arsenal first team when Gervinho and Chamakh went off to the African
Nations Cup. He said: "The adaptation period for him is over now so he has to come in and show he

It looks like the forecast is clearing up in London. That still doesn't mean we'll play, but
it's enough reason to have a rant at least.

A few days ago, Mark Lawrenson argued that Arsene Wenger would probably 'fall on his sword' at the
end of the season, especially if he failed to guide Arsenal into next season's Champions League.
Liverpool legend Alan Hansen agrees with his former defensive partner, and believes the next 8-10
weeks could be the defining period of Wenger's reign.
One of the perks of being a professional futbolito is obviously getting new cars sent to
your doorstep every season (listen up, AC Milan fans!) While the European elite get to drive their
shiny new Audis, Atletico Madrid's players received keys to our
favourite car of all time instead a Volkswagen Beetle!
When it comes to announcing his presence at clothing stores, a gigantic poster is no longer
enough for Davey Becks. These days, he doesn't get out of bed for anything less than a set of huge
shiny Beckham effigies, dressed only in affordable high street underwear.
The LA Galaxy star's expectations were surpassed last night at the H&M store on London's Regent
Street, when he unveiled his new 'bodywear' line (aren't all clothes technically 'bodywear'?

Kickettes, do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Whether or not a three-wish-granting genie pops out, I'd like to rub David Beckham's silver
statue bulge.
As London went Siberian (although not for me; watched at home while looking after the boy)
Fulham were much as Fulham are. Yes, we lacked a true number 25, but individual players are
always less important than we think they'll be. In truth we looked more or less okay.
Fulham lined up with what was more or less a 4-4-2, Murphy and Sidwell flanked by Duff and
Davies, with Dempsey and Ruiz a surprising but skilful front two.
Now that the January transfer window has closed in England, I've been given the go-ahead to report,
exclusive to HEGS, that a few days ago a representative of Arsenal's scouting team in London
enquired about offering a contract to Claudio ... Continue reading →

After sweeping through the qualifying for the Olympics 2012 in London like Charlie Sheen on Tiger
Blood, the USWNT decided to put their emphatic stamp on the tourney and ensure a top seed. Wambach
nets two to move her to 2nd all time in FIFA's top women goal scorers (131) and the US rolls to a
4-0 win that wasn't as close as the scoreline indicates.

Hope Solo could potentially miss tomorrow nights all important semifinal match against Costa

Some good and some bad news for Salomon Kalou today at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Buy Belgian. Ho.
We talked yesterday about the club allegedly reentering talks with Racing Genk over the transfer
of the young Belgium international Kevin De Bruyne. Those talks (gasp) are actually true.
This according to a spokesman for Genk:
Dirk Degraen is in London and the expectation is that it (the transfer of De Bruyne) will be
finished this week.
Not entirely sure about the source material, but Chelsea have allegedly re-engaged in talks with
Racing Genk over the transfer of the 20-year-old that looks not a day over 12 Kevin De Bruyne.
Young Money
As you may recall, the club inquired about De Bruyne in the summer.

This doesn't sound too promising. While the rest of the boys headed off to Spain after the
disappointing draw with Norwich City, Frank Lampard remained behind. Poor guy.
He instead headed back to London in order to undergo scans on what is suspected to be a torn
calf muscle. You may recall him being removed after only 37 minutes at Carrow Road.

It looks more and more likely with each passing day that Andrey Arshavin will pack up his boots
and leave London during the summer, likely back to Russia with Zenit St Petersburg, where he's
still considered a hero. In fact, it seems all of Russia regards Arshavin as some kind of football
genius since he was named that nation's athlete of the year again for the fourth time running and
is still the captain of his country's team.
Oh it's happening, Kickettes. And it will be starring a real live WAG.
Jessica Lawlor, girlfriend of Aston Villa's Stephen Ireland confirmed on Twitter this morning
that she will have a role in WAG! The Musical. Jess added,
In my role I am simply making fun out of the pre conception that ppl have formed of 'WAGS'.
...is another beginning. Sources close to the process have told ESPNLosAngeles.com that the
Galaxy's willingness to accommodate Beckham if he were selected to play for Great Britain in the
Olympic Games in London this summer was an important factor for the superstar, who was a key
pitchman for Britain's bid.
On Sunday, January 22, 2012, Manchester United will take the pitch against Arsenal at the
Emirates. Cognizant of the simple fact that Manchester United handed Arsenal an 8-2 loss that is
counted amongst the very worst in a period of 100 years, no one is giving much reason to believe
that the Gunners have a chance against the Red Devils.
It is being reported in France that the Arsenal outcast defender Sebastien Squillaci is being given
an escape route by Monaco, where he spent eight happy years before being snapped up by Lyon, where
he won a Ligue 1 trophy. He then moved to Spain with Sevilla for two years before arriving in
London with [.
