Marlon King Punches His Way To 18 Months In Prison

Twohundredpercent 29 October @ 08:56 PM EST

Marlon King is twenty-eight years old. His contract with Wigan Athletic was worth £35,000 per week. He has scored twelve Premier League goals in his entire career. Never has in the field of human endeavour has such mediocrity been so handsomely rewarded. For this reason and this doesn't obviously doesn't even take into account what he has been sent to prison for and if nothing else comes from this grimly predictable story, at least Dave Whelan may be breathing a sigh of relief at getting such an expensive burden upon Wigan Athletic's wage bill.

Don’t You Know Who Marlon King Is? (Allegedly.)

Toon loan targets - Marlon King the latest

Newcastle United Blog - NUFC news, blogs and debate. 04 September @ 01:53 AM EST

How Long Left for Southgate at Middlesbrough?

EPL Talk 17 May @ 05:06 PM EST

A man under pressure

Gareth Southgate's Middlesbrough look al but destined for the drop after a 1-1 draw against Aston Villa on Saturday afternoon. Sanli Tuncay scored their only goal, which was a sublime overhead kick. But the impotence of the Boro' attack was apparent as they failed to convert one of the many chances they fashioned.

Viduka shows Boro what they are missing

Middlesbrough FC news, match reports and articles - Boro Mania 12 May @ 03:00 PM EST

He may not have got onto the scoresheet last night but former Boro favourite Mark Viduka was the best player on the St James' Park pitch as Boro slumped to yet another away day defeat.

And there goes Fulham's Top 10 finish. Poof. Gone. The rumor has turned into reality. 
Fulham stud Jimmy Bullard has officially joined Hull.
I have a big soft spot for the England international not because he saved Fulham from relegation last season, but because he returned from injury to lead my fantasy team Cantona FC to a third straight mini-league title last season. Click to continue reading...
