The Gunning Hawk 22 November @ 03:00 PM EST
Unbeatable at the Emirates, so vulnerable away from it. And Wenger's statement, saying that had we played Sunderland at home we would have won, well, that's very funny if you ask me. In an interview not ... Click to continue reading...

DT in London: Day 3

Dirty Tackle 22 November @ 05:20 AM EST

Today's lesson: Remember to turn your flash on when you come out of an elevator and find yourself staring at Chelsea's starting XI. Even still, I like how blurry Joe Cole fancies up his warm-ups with that scarf.

Randomly ended up having lunch beside a former Wolves executive (who had no delusions of the club staying in the Premier League).

Two Straight 2-2 Draws at Home = Europa League?

LFC News | Liverpool Football Club News 21 November @ 02:05 PM EST
Looking more and more like we'll be a Europa League squad, both this season (probable) and next (also probable when you win 1 out of 10 matches and draw against the likes of Birmingham and Man City at home)... and if we aren't careful, it could be even worse. I don't want to get too dramatic, [...] Click to continue reading...

The STO Commish Critiques: Instant Replay

Soccer Tickets Online 21 November @ 07:00 AM EST

Many are surprised by the play Thierry Henry got away with in the World Cup playoff between France and Ireland. If you are not aware of the incident, Henry clearly was guilty of an intentional handball in the box at a critical moment in the second half. France was down a goal at the time of the non-call and the play resulted in a goal for Gallas and an assist from Henry.

One of the television channels at Chelsea Football Club "Russia TV". Roman Abramovich must be pissed that technical difficulties are preventing him from watching The Andrei Arshavin Comedy and Out of Place Rants Against Women Drivers Hour.

Soccer Tickets Online 21 November @ 05:22 AM EST

The MLS Cup Final is tomorrow at 8:30 on ESPN (nice coverage for Soccer here in the US) and we still don't know if Becks is hurt or not. With Landon Donovan also being named the MVP of the league and RSL chomping at the bit to get this thing on I will still ask the same question. Do you trust L.

Now you don’t see ‘em, now you do

East Lower 20 November @ 03:20 PM EST

Fridays always have the potential to bring better news on the injury front, what with Wenger's press conference, and there was certainly plenty of good news today.

From a list that that seemed earlier on this week to be mushrooming out of control, things now look a bit more normal, don't they?

Should France V Rep.Ireland Be Replayed? Is Henry Sorry?

Footy/Soccer Blog 20 November @ 02:14 PM EST

Many people have been calling for the France v Rep. Ireland game to be replayed, but I'm not too sure if this will be possible. Sure, I think the game wasn't fair and France don't deserve to go to the World Cup, but I'm not sure if you can simply decide to replay this match how can it be considered to be fair, when bad refereeing decisions affect matches all the time, I don't quite understand how this match can warrant a replay when others don't.

Pottinger tackles… Henry loves Basketball

Inthestands.co.uk - Football Banter For the Masses - Football Blog 20 November @ 01:41 PM EST

Right then, whilst I'm here I might as well sort this shit out.

First things first, I WANT the game to be replayed. Having said that it would be an absolute travesty if FIFA ordered a rematch of the game, as it would set an extremely dangerous precedent in football whereby the result on the pitch isn't final.
