Ade The Misunderstood?

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 30 October @ 04:31 PM EST
Adebayor has once again broken his silence about his true feelings for Arsenal, the fans and former team mates. Much has been thrown his way since interests from other clubs began surfacing after the 07/08 season when he scored a remarkable 30 goals for the Arsenal. But, does he really deserve the stick he's gotten [. Click to continue reading...

Guitar Hero using soccer balls?

Attacking 90 28 October @ 01:07 AM EST
For the love of football!

This looks like too much fun. Â What footballer wouldn't want to have a go at a game like this?

Play Guitar Hero by kicking soccer balls against a warehouse wall? Â The scale of this takes video gaming to another level, and looks silly fun. Â It would take a handful of good footballers and some practice to manage a decent score, but wouldn't it be a blast to try?

The Big Red Derby – An Asian perspective

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 26 October @ 08:37 AM EST
On this side of the world, the games between Liverpool and Manchester United carry more significance than the games against their local sides Everton and Man City. Traditionally, fans follow a particular club, because of their geographical proximity to the club, family affiliations and/or religion. But on this side of the world, fans become fans [.

Goldenballs Beard of the Match

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 16 October @ 01:13 PM EST
Beckham showed up for England looking rather shabby and looked more like he just got out of bed. England won 3-0 and Becks was dubiously named man of the match but it wasn't as interesting as his new beard. So what do you guys (and girls more importantly) think? Yay or nay?

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 15 October @ 02:21 PM EST

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 10 October @ 06:53 AM EST
So Cristiano Ronaldo is set to replace David Beckham as the new "worldwide testimonial" for Emporio Armani's Men's Underwear and Armani Jeans, starting from spring/summer 2010.

Ferguson and Foster Row: Will Sir Alex Ever Find an Acceptable GK?

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 09 October @ 06:30 AM EST
Blaming the goalkeeper is Ferguson's favorite past time. You'd be hard-pressed to find a goalkeeper in his tenure that hasn't received his famous hairdryer treatment. Save Mossimo Taibi, who seemed to be doomed upon arrival at Old Trafford. Even Peter Schmeichel confessed he was on the receiving end of a face full of words often in his career.

Independent Schools Football – There’s more to it than you think

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 08 October @ 08:57 AM EST
You may be forgiven for thinking Independent School's Sport is centred around Rugby and Cricket, therefore not realising that Football is in fact bigger than the two in most cases. Independent Schools, such as the one I attend (Shrewsbury School), are renowned for their big playing grounds, excellent facilities and top-class coaching, thus giving pupils [.

Not to be confused with Georges W.

If only Victoria was as good at singing as Beckham is at football

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 09 August @ 06:47 AM EST
