I hated Emre when he was at Inter because I thought he was a diver who wasn’t anywhere near as talented as he seemed to think he was. Since he’s come to Newcastle, however, I’ve undergone a bit of a conversation - I mean, the dude scores goals and can cross the ball fairly reliably. [...]

In their Carling Cup match today, David O’Leary’s sorry Aston Villa side were humiliated by Doncaster, who just happen to play two leagues below O’Leary’s boys. Because O’Leary has never been even partially to blame for anything that has ever gone wrong in the history of the world, he was forced to share with SkySports [...]

After failing in his attempts to woo George Burley and and Neil Warnock to the club, chairman Milan Mandaric told papers that he will officially approach Rangers today for permission to speak to the all-but-fired [...]

A quick summary, before I get to the details: Ronaldinho rules, Becks is teaching children, and everyone in Rangers ownership is a liar.
In shocking news, Ronaldinho wins the Ballon D’Or as European footballer of the year. You don’t say.
Professional moron David O’Leary has to pay £5,000 because he insulted Graham Poll. When is he going [...]

While my initial reaction is to think that Keane’s style of play would actually fit in quite well [...]

For the past week or two, I’ve been denying my love for the Inter website in an effort to appear mature. I’m sorry, friends, but I just can’t pretend anymore - the updates are back. Today, I present the entirety of the most recent post:

Newcastle bust Patrick Kluivert has finally spoken out about his time with the Toon, and what he’s got to say isn’t pretty. What’s funny is that everything he says is completely obvious to pretty much everyone outside of the English footballing establishment, but so few people ever acknowledge the problems he points out that it’s [...]

It’s Thanksgiving weekend here in the US, and like most Americans this morning, I’m so full of turkey that I can hardly stand, let alone type.

According to a sudden frenzy of reports in the Spanish and Italian media, Juventus boss Fabio Capello has already signed a deal that will take him to Real Madrid next season.

Turkish assistant coach Mehmet Ozdilek has resigned his post, effectively immediately. Though the Turkish FA has released nothing beyond a statement confirming Ozdilek’s departure, this is obvious confirmation that he was in fact at least partially responsible for the now-infamous brawl. Though early footage started with Ozdilek getting kicked, it was later reveal (in the [...]
