Media intrusion. 20 reporters camped outside his house. Alleged death threats. And all before he even signed a contract. Is it any wonder at all that Luiz Felipe Scolari weighed up his options and decided that the England job just wasn’t worth the hassle?
The British tabloid press will be “over the moon” (apologies for the […]
For those who commented on the Special Treatment post yesterday and maybe hadn’t seen the incident I’ve found the clip on youtube.com.
Seeing it again it does look like handbags but the fact remains that Hayden Mullins raised his hands to Luis Garcia after Garcia aimed an elbow at his back.
Both unacceptable but the worst bit […]
What do they put in the water on Teeside to keep producing these thrilling finales to Middlesbrough’s UEFA Cup games? Whatever it is maybe Steve McLaren should get them to double the dose when they’re playing in the league because the fee scoring, thrill a minute Boro side in Europe bears little resemblance to it’s […]
What a slippery slope we will wind up on if the FA gives in to calls from Liverpool and West Ham United for clemency for Luis Garcia and Hayden Mullins after their sendings off in last night’s Premiership clash.
The red cards for violent conduct will mean both players have to serve a mandatory three match […]
So the FA have finally made their move for “Big Phil” Scolari and seemingly ended one of the most boring quests for a new England manager in recent history. Praise the Lord. Unbelievably I think they’ve actually got it right if all goes to plan and Scolari does sign on the dotted […]
There aren’t many European football watchers who could deny that a Barcelona-AC Milan match-up in the Champion’s League final would have been a much more fitting finale than one of them against Arsenal or Villareal. As it turns out it will be the plum half of North London as opposition for tonight’s aggregate winners in […]
It’s with great sadness (firstly that I put another pun-tastic headline on this post but more importantly) that I have to write about one of the greatest footballers of my lifetime announcing his retirement.
Zinedine Zidane has confirmed the rumours that he will retire altogether after leading France into battle at World Cup 2006 despite still […]
I would say sorry to any Chelsea fans who have followed this link but you know I just wouldn’t mean it so I won’t tell lies.
Can’t help but laugh at the slew of anti-Chelsea Photoshop efforts on the web these days.
Let’s just say I’ll never be short of material of The Footie as long as […]
Big well done to Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney as they have picked up the PFA Player of the Year and PFA Young Player of the year awards respectively for season 2005/2006.
Rooney holds onto his title as Young Player of the Year after winning it last season and while it’s a bit strange writing about […]
I could hardly believe my ears while listening to the post North London derby interviews when I heard the words I never thought we’d hear uttered on British TV or radio.
Calm down dear, not those words, the Sex Pistols treated us way back when to that particular phrase and anyway, this one is much more […]
