Thank you Donovan McNabb…
...from the NFC East Champions. If the Washington Redskins hadn't traded for Donovan McNabb they wouldn't have traded away Donovan McNabb so would they have Alfred Morris? ...read this Blog post →
We all warned Gareth Bale that it would come…
...to this. And we were right. Spurs fans didn't like it when he was doing it, diving that is, or going down theatrically, it's earned him a reputation that referees are too witless to see past. ...read this Blog post →
Go go Godzilla…
...gone. Yesterday former Yankee Hideki Matsui announced his retirement from Major League Baseball, aged 38, after a decade long career in the States which followed a decade playing in his native Japan. ...read this Blog post →
That second half corner count was a…
...disgrace. In the first half of Spurs' away game at Aston Villa they were too busy amassing corners and throw ins in the second they recklessly abandoned the goal for the record number of corners for actual goals. ...read this Blog post →
The unrelenting misery that is Stoke…
...City. Don't know what's worse what Stoke call football or the joy they take in killing the game. Points for points sake, no enjoyment, glory in destruction, you wonder what Danny Blanchflower would have made of it all. ...read this Blog post →
How could you vote for anyone but…
...Wiggo? Bradley Wiggins' share of the Sports Personality of the Year vote didn't quite match Mark Cavendish's when he won the award last but then Mark didn't have Olympic gold medal winners to compete with. ...read this Blog post →
Or how to survive the last 15 minutes plus…
...injury time. Easy answer for Spurs to hold out during the last 10 to 15 minutes of games with a lead looks like being to play teams with little attacking intention - like Swansea. Fine by me. ...read this Blog post →
Stop the game, we need to get off…
...with a win. AVB needs to do something about Spurs' 80 minute men. He also needs to get one of his 'keepers and one of his central defenders to spend some time together so they can understand each other in the future. ...read this Blog post →
All’s well that ends…
...well. This Europa League group stage has been a bit touch and go over the six games for Spurs, right through to 15 minutes from the end of the final game at home to Panathinaikos last night. ...read this Blog post →
English rugby’s greatest victory for…
...nearly a decade...and it was Toby Flood-less. Any coincidence? I think not. But will they learn from this? ...read this Blog post →
I don’t know how long AVB can go on…
...at this rate. Three wins in a week, 9 points from 9, eight goals for just two against. Surely 'Arry would have done better than this. It can't carry on, we shouldn't allow it to carry on. ...read this Blog post →
Spurs getting away with it…
...a bit. Taking enough chances when they came and hanging on to a lead to see it out for the victory. Doesn't make for pleasant viewing until after the final whistle. ...read this Blog post →
The mollycoddling of Kevin Pietersen…
...is slightly over the top. Would it really have mattered a bit what he scored if England's bowlers couldn't take 20 wickets? ...read this Blog post →
Are the pieces finally falling into…
...place? Yes it was only the vile scum of West Ham but with the likes of Lloris, Dawson and Dempsey playing and playing well it was probably the best home game of the season so far. ...read this Blog post →
One man show in…
