For some reason, it seems like ages since last had a round of club football, but we're sure happy
that it's back on the agenda this weekend, because, well, this has been another particularly
stressful week in the constantly varying Scottish football landscape. Most friendlies are futile.
These days they serve only as an excuse to increase [.

We're always thankful it's Saturday at Inside Left, mainly because it means a return to the
terraces to enjoy watching the cream of our divisions tanning a ball around the park. This week
we're particularly glad that the weekend brings sense to bear, as this has not been a great seven
days for the game north [.

TPS Turku bade ‘farewell' to Wayne Brown this week after the Fulham midfielder finished his
summer loan spell at the club. The attacking midfielder, who is hoping to break into the first team
of the Premier League club this season, made a very positive impression on Finnish football,
scoring an impressive six goals in 19 [.

In countries across the world the pre season build up always has the feel of a phony war.Sadly this
year in Scotland has seen the phony war produce a number of high profile casualties.Falkirk,
Motherwell and Aberdeen out of Europe. Scotland all but out of the 2010 World Cup. That's the
football side.

OK, I'll admit I got just about every call wrong last year – although I did redeem myself
slightly by identifying Tony Mowbray the moment wee Gordon stepped away from Celtic.But like Yves
Makalambay I'm prepared to pull my gloves back on, hurl myself back into the fray and flirt with
yet another calamity.

A number of Englishmen are off overseas following stints in England or, as in two cases, under the
tutelage of Glenn Hoddle at his academy based in Spain. Ikechi Anya was last seen in England last

There's been a clear out of Les Rosbifs in recent days, what with the transfer silly season in full
swing and approximately six weeks of the transfer window still to run. Even though a number of
Englishmen abroad are contracted to their clubs, it gives their owners the prospect of a payday if
they can [.
