The Real bandwagon rolls on in Madrid
It was a familiar story at the Vicente Calderon on Sunday evening following yet another Real Madrid success over their poor relatives. A story that more often than not involves rotten luck and a reality check for Atleti, and precedes a relentless march towards success from Real. It’s been that long since the paupers beat…

Tunisia 2-2 Senegal – Mejdi Traoui the hero as Tunisia earn a late draw
Senegal’s opening Group D clash against Tunisia was built up as a grudge match after the Teranga Lions’ controversial exit from 2004 African Cup of Nations by the same opponents.

Is Arsenal’s Nicklas Bendtner really a Premiership Striker?
Nicklas Bendtner scored an own goal and argued with his strike partner last night as if to further compound his Arsenal misery, so is it time Arsene Wenger cut him loose?

Real Madrid – Ronaldo (Manchester United) and Fabregas (Arsenal) are impossible signings

Keegan’s toughest challenge is to attract quality players to Newcastle United
So Keggy Keegan’s back on the Tyne. The Toon Army are partying like it’s 1999 and the red tops are thanking the great editor in the sky. It’s a football fairytale and if all the work shy script writers over in Hollywood hadn’t recently downed pens, I’m sure they’d already be working on the film….
Keegan’s love for Newcastle United will not win trophies
The Newcastle United circus has a new ringmaster with a script that has his followers roaring their approval. Meanwhile, the rest of the country sits there laughing hysterically at the Geordie ‘messiah’ rather than chortling along with him. Newcastle’s scattergun approach to find a replacement for the overly talented Sam Allardyce finally bore fruit when…

Wayne Rooney has just been elected the ugliest player in the world, at least according to 33% of the 2,500 women polled by www.thepeoplesclub.com. “Shrek” (as the Man Utd striker is affectionately, or not-so-affectionately rather, nicknamed) is however judged to be the perfect mate for girlfriend (and soon-to-be wife) Coleen McLoughlin, the latter indeed not…
