3 UP FRONT: Studs Up’s Chris Toy, Rooney’s United future and England post-mortem

The Three Up Front podcast is back for another belting half hour of football chat so make sure you tune in… First up the boys take a look at the state of Fabio Capello’s England side (should they change their tactics? really?) before embarking on a jam-packed show that includes; Fact or Fiction: The Serbians will likely…

Putting the billions of Manchester City & Chelsea into proper context

There’s been plenty of chatter about the fiscal power of Chelsea FC and Manchester City in recent years, especially in the context of their recent clashes.

Exclusive photos from Robin Van Persie’s placenta treatment

Make sure you listen to this week’s Soccerlens Podcast that discusses horse placenta treatment, Henry’s handball and a lot more.

However, it does help me draw attention to this accurate depiction (comic below) of what ‘football blogging’ can be like when you get people chasing the almightly dollar / pound with scant regard for quality, principles or even…

Manchester City are buying up all the real men

Because you know, it’s not about the money but the ambition of playing for the richest owners in the game.

The highlight of the Right Result weekend, so to speak, was referee Howard Webb’s decision that is perceived to have changed the flow of the Manchester United versus Tottenham Hotspur game and, with it, the course of the destiny of the Premier League title. With Spurs 2-0 up after nearly an hour at Old Trafford,…

Proof that Riley will be 100% unbiased during Everton-United game

Riley is a good referee. He’s an honest referee. He’s not a Manchester United fan – he was, but like all true United fans he’s moved on to supporting FC United of Manchester in protest at the American scum taking over his beloved club. If anything, he’s more fond of Everton than he is of…
