A visit from Saint Meredith
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
United socks hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there.

Showing that chunky lads can cut the mustard in the top flight 1. Grant Holt (Norwich) He's a big
unit. When he had his moustache he looked more like a rogue DC from a 1970s police drama than a top
footballer. Nonetheless, he's proved he can score in the Premier League. 2. Jonathan Walters

Bum fluff alert! Movember moustache picture special!
It will be razors at the ready up and down the country on Thursday as ‘Movember' moustaches
are shaved off. Men across the nation have been growing the face fur for a month to raise money and
awareness of prostate cancer, and a number of footballers have joined in this year.

Injustice. Obscene profits. In this week's list, we're assembling a crew of famous footballing
names to Occupy FIFA. They won't rest until they bring down the soccer juggernaut (and Sharpie a
moustache on Blatter while he's sleeping).

As many will know, we are in the middle of Movember. Yup, in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, the
US, Canada, Finland, the Netherlands, Spain, South Africa and Ireland, chaps are being encouraged
to let the above-the-lip stuff grow unchecked for a month.
And this has exactly what to do with the greatest football club in the world (that's us, in case
there's any misunderstanding)?
What hasn't been reported by the media about Newcastle United this season? We've had praise for the
way the team has played (except, of course, from BBC pundit and moustache fetishist Mark
Lawrenson). We've had criticism about strength of depth...

In defence of Luis Suárez | Scott Murray
The Liverpool striker has become a pariah in the Premier League thanks to little English
football's strange kind of logic Having showcased his Hand of God tribute act at the last World
Cup, and sunk his gnashers into a fellow pro while at Ajax, Luis Suárez was a ready-formed cartoon
villain when he washed up on these shores last January.

Bit of a strange one, but Robin van Persie has had to take to Twitter this morning to refute
claims (largely from jilted Chelsea fans it has to be said) that he celebrated his second goal at
Stamford Bridge with a 'nazi salute'...
Just to play Devil's advocate for a second, the thrusting of the arm into the air could be
construed as a little bit 'Hitler-y' to the untrained eye, though Van Persie was quick to explain
his actions, tweeting thusly:
"It has been brought to my attention of some ridiculous allegations concerning my celebration of
one of my goals.

During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of
men's faces in the UK and around the world. The aim of which is to raise vital funds and awareness
for men's health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.
Since its humble beginnings in Melbourne Australia, Movember has grown to become a truly global
movement inspiring more than 1.
Tache of the Titans! Great footballing face furniture picture special
The people behind the best moustache growing charity initiative in the world bar none, Movember,
are marking its 5th anniversary by demanding several iconic tache sporters from the world of, er,
sport regrow their 'mo.

Good heavens above, Kickettes! We know that in Fernando Torres and Zlatan Ibrahimovic we have
two serious bitchface heavyweights, but these are some killer blows, even by their standards.
Whaddya reckon, lads and lasses? Does 'Nando get the edge in last weekend's contest by
mobilising his back-up freckles?

It's Friday evening, we're on an international break and the long, long summer transfer window
has finally closed; time for something a little light hearted. How about the colour of socks?
Yes, I really did this, but I cannot possibly stress this enough: I really, really don't care about
the colour of socks on our home kit.
Joey, we can cope with your occasional tantrums, esoteric and downright confusing Twitter ramblings
and even your dodgy hair-do. But the moustache is too much. Please stop it. Image: Alex

Carlos Valdes missing the New England match: Meh.
Carlos Valdes missing the game at Real Salt Lake? Dammit.
Due to New Englanders being scared of weather, the second scenario has come true. The options to
replace Valdes are clear because, well, they are so few.
1. Drop Stefani Miglioranzi back and fill his spot with either a recovered Brian Carroll or an
antsy Amobi Okugo.

threatens to undermine our quest for world domination. Poke him in the eye...NOW!"

Zlatan, if you think that simply removing your shirt will distract us to the point where we won't
give you a hard time about you exciting new moustache/beard/ponytail combo, you are totally...

Preseason tour fail So, his crimes have finally caught up with him. It is clear that US visa
control became uneasy when Barton revealed the moustache above. How could anyone with such a filthy
tattoo have anything but a negative impact on the country? And it seems the same officials were

Ok, so we're busted. We over-promised consistency with the Thursday Thigh Off and now we have
to approach our beloved readers on bended knee and beg for forgiveness at our failure to deliver.
Don't worry, we've memoed ourselves a reminder to post tomorrow and promise to never double book
ourselves during the same time as our weekly Iker poster dusting sesh.
How do you start a match review when the ninety minutes you've witnessed is so much more than
just a match? The rivers of bad blood these two teams share had already given the tie its opera
storyline, and if you had time to tear your eyes away from all the glamour in the papers, you would
have seen 22 world class players take to the pitch in what was, at its core, a fantastic football
match.
Here are a bunch of matches to watch over the next few days a few on Saturday, one Sunday, and
one Monday. Which takes you right up to Tuesday...and the start of the Champions League Round of
16. Bananas.

England, Manchester United-Manchester City 7:30am FSC: Manchester derby!
If you scour the Arsenal blogosphere on a daily basis the name Critic will
need no introduction. He's a passionate Desi Gooner like yours truly and has contributed the
following piece. I hope you will find it a nice change from my usual analytical ramblings.
It has been a crazy transfer month, with even crazier rumors.
You can take a club to Turkey but can you turkey a club?
It was quite a surprise when word leaked out this past autumn that Toronto FC would be spending
its preseason in Turkey. In the previous four years, TFC were more like Quebecois senior citizens
who went to Florida for the winter. Their opponents usually resembled Old-Age Home U-90 teams
too.
