I completely missed every single game of football across the British Isles at the weekend.

I was awake long enough to see van Persie scoring, but the next thing I [. Click to continue reading...

The 90th Minute Soccer Blog 29 October @ 09:22 PM EST

Most of the top European leagues are more than a 1/3 into their 2009-10 season. In Spain, Barcelona is on top of the league table while Real Madrid are close behind. In France and Germany, the league tables are very close and no clear favorites so far. Inter Milan leads the Italian Serie A and are the favorites to repeat as champions.

Henrik Larsson retires

Soccerblog 29 October @ 08:08 PM EST

"Henrik Larsson always scores." The clip shows Celtic fighting back through Larsson against Porto in a pulsating 2003 UEFA Cup final.

My memories of Larsson will always be defined by the Swedish striker entering the game in the 2006 CL final against Arsenal late in the second half.

Middlesbrough FC news, match reports and articles - Boro Mania 22 October @ 03:47 AM EST

After 27 years supporting Middlesbrough Football Club, I could be forgiven for thinking I had seen it all. Cup finals, relegations, promotions. Liquidation, Europe. Memorable victories and crushing defeats. I thought nothing about the club would ever truly surprise me again. Tuesday night, I was proven wrong.

The insignificance of Scottish Football

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 11 October @ 09:14 AM EST
So, who will win the SPL this year? Celtic or Rangers? It's this question that underlines the insignificance of the other teams in Scottish Football, and again raises the point that perhaps the two Glaswegian giants should be allowed to play in the Premier League. Having watched last weekend's Derby match, it's plain to see that the [. Click to continue reading...

Rangers & Celtic: The Decline Of The Northern Empire?

Twohundredpercent 05 October @ 03:55 PM EST

Arsene Wenger might think the Scots are still influential in Europe, but he's about the only person left who does. It being October, it must be just about time for Scottish football pundits to do their usual soul-searching, surveying the wreckage of another failed qualification campaign for the national team, while both the Old Firm sit bottom of the European groups and all the various other qualifying round defeats are already forgotten along with most of the names of the East European teams who inflicted them.

Ricki's Recruit

Although Sydney FC thoroughly deserved their victory over the Central Coast Mariners this afternoon, the entire press box was in agreement that the man of the match played on the losing side.

The Ultimate 11’s – Dundee United

OK Football Finder 21 September @ 01:00 AM EST

This week's Ultimate 11's is Iain McDonald's Dundee United. Now I'll level with you, I'm no fan of the Scottish game, but Scotchland have given me some cracking moments over the years, David Narey's stunnning goal againt the mighty Brazil in World Cup 1982, they eventually lost 4-1 which gave me even more joy.

On this occasion Glenn was talking about Kris Boyd. But how appropriate his sentiment is for one of Boyd's Old Firm colleagues. Click to continue reading...

Mixed fortunes in Europe for Glasgow's ugly sisters on the back of dropped SPL points last weekend. More of the same this week? Click to continue reading...

WTF Stuttgart?

Bundesliga Talk 17 September @ 10:27 AM EST

Seriously WTF?

Two years ago Stuttgart did a nice little number on our coefficient by losing five games in the group stages. It looks like they are going to try and repeat that damage to our coefficient again this time around after an uninspiring home draw to Rangers. Unable to take advantage of the absence of Rangers' captain David Weir, ruled out late, the Swabians enjoyed the better first half but could only must one goal from Progrebnyak.

Youngster makes loan move permanent.

Liverpool today confirmed the sale of midfielder Ryan Flynn to Scottish Premier League side Falkirk.
The 20-year-old Scot was on a season-long loan with The Bairns but the deal has now been made permanent.
