Weekend Predictions | This is the ode to Hel
I’ve never been particularly lucky in love. As a result of a severe lack of confidence, I can only approach women after a skinful of lager when the beer goggles are on. Even Kermit would have turned his nose up at some of the pigs I’ve tried my luck with. I raised the bar marginally…

Derby v Middlesbrough v Birmingham v Reading: Who Will Lose Their Manager Next?
Martin Jol’s departure from White Hart Lane didn’t come as a real shock. It was inevitable it was only a matter of time before the continuous run of defeats, increasing pressure form chairman Daniel Levy and even the sulking attitude of Dimitar Berbatov recently would bring the robust Dutchman down. His replacement, highly coveted Juande…
Lies, Damn Lies and Jamie Redknapp
My heart goes out to supporters of Liverpool FC. The club have been rocked by Champions League failure, the validity of their Merseyside derby victory has been questioned, and they have to travel to Liverpool at least once a fortnight.

Premier League Team of the Season (so far)
With Sven winner of August’s manager of the month award and Micah Richards receiving the player of the month gong, I thought it might be interesting to try to build a complete ‘team of the first month and a half’. Many questions arise when considering such a team: should it just be a collection of…
Arsenal Rack Up Five Against Mediocre Derby (match highlights video)
Before this game it seemed that there could only be one outcome- Arsenal was on a run of seven wins in eight games playing some absolutely brilliant football along the way; Derby had struggled in their start to the Premiership season, albeit picking up their first win in the league against Newcastle a week earlier….
Weekend Predictions: Arsenal – Liverpool – Tottenham – Manchester United – Newcastle United – West Ham – Manchester City – Fulham – Aston Villa – Bolton Wanderers – Portsmouth – Chelsea – Wigan – Middlesbrough – Sunderland – Everton – Reading – Blackburn Rovers – Birmingham City – Derby County
The Premier League weekend is likely to be overshadowed by Jose Mourinho’s exit (dismissal) from Chelsea, something that has also overshadowed the minor injury crisis at Liverpool as Daniel Agger and Xabi Alonso are out for 6 weeks following metatarsal injuries. No chance to breath though, as we’ve got some exciting close fixtures, 2 one-sided…
