Football in General Reviews

there has been much speculation over the fact that there will soon be a British football team.... this will be as well as the English , Welsh, Scotish etc. i believe that this can only be good for the British Game because as the players get more international experience they will become better for it. there have been objections such ...

I think the new England managers first team selection of 31 was a little over diplomatic to keep the press on side and plenty of fillers as the big clubs players pick up mysterious knocks between now and the game. Macmanaman has already cried off with most of the Man United and Liverpool players who are guaranteed last 22 places for the big ...

So West Ham scored and won one nil Barthez was left standing still He had his arm raised in the air By the way, he has no hair Di Canio scored a nice little goal It blantately ripped out Fergusons soul Man U cant win the treble, what a shame Im glad that they lost this game Harrys gona be happy, Fergies ...

What i mean by this is , like the scottish league there r only two real teams celtic and ranger. as u can see from recent news man united are just stetching the lead so is the prem goin to become like scots. All it is going to be is manu manu and man u what can we do about this simple dont go to the matches if we dont then manu couldnt afford ...

In my opinion, football is the best sport that this world has to offer and it will continue to be the best sport for many, many years to come. The only problem I have with the sport is the on going annoying transfer system. In my opinion, it should not be abolished as it will ruin the game and that is all I have to say about that. I reckon that ...

Mancini is better than Litmanen. I think that with the recent double swoop for Mancini and Sturrdige, leicester can make a surge to 4 place towards that end of the season. Mancini will add experience and vision to the leicester attack and I think will be far more effective than Jari Litmanen for Liverpool. I think leicester need just one more ...

Zinedine Zidane's coronation as world player of the year was a bit like a film getting an oscar for a couple of good scenes (or, in the case of Titanic one good scene). Zidane is not over-rated, but the award certainly is. What Zidane was (as Luis Figo observed) was world player of June - his brilliance leading France to triumph in Euro 2000. ...

Rangers and Celtic are sure to join the premiership and get killed by every team in it. Scotland is a rubbish league with no quality atall. Rangers think they are great because they can beat St. Mirren but they probably would not be able to cope with the intensity of the Premiership. Players fight for their clubs, they give ...

Now, I've played in goal now almost ten years, and boy have i made some absolute howlers. I mean theres the one i caught and then somehow dropped through my legs into the net, and the one that bounced over my head whilst doing a long barrier on the floor(aka Tim Flowers). The list isn't quite endless, but I have got to feel for Gary ...

When I heard that John Hartson was on the verge of signing for Coventry I felt like Crying. I don’t see what Gordon Strachan sees in the man. He is over weight, slow and a general liability. I don’t understand why Coventry need a striker any way, Zuniga has looked sharp all season and as soon as Craig Bellamy hits form there will be no ...

I am not the biggest football fan and most people probably wont find this report all that useful but I would like to thank every team in the premiership and F.A cup for bringing such good entertainment over the last few weeks. It is also good to have Manchester united back because it brings more intensity into games when every team goes out to ...

Perhaps I should ask what's right with this country. Time and time again we hear the same old words, there's not enough money put into the sport to provide the facilities needed to improve standards. What a load of tripe. Coming from a football fanatical part of the country and a family to match, hearing these comments makes me feel so ...

OK so what is going wrong with the Premiership? Once again Man Utd are going to win it, unless some bizarre case of events causes them to throw away an 11 point lead in the 16 games that remain. Don’t get me wrong, I am not anti-Man U, it’s just that I don’t want to see England’s No1 league become as dull as the ...

What is wrong with being a glory hunter, that is my question. All supporters of Man Utd are called this, even if they do have a good reason for supporting their side. So if you do not decide to support a successful side, then what is your criteria for choosing you team? If you are a die hard fan then maybe you support your most local ...

I remember when a man called Wenger appeared at Highbury, he was good, or so they said, we had faith and supported the influx of the French foreign legion. We were amazed at the success, Premiership and F.A. cup in one season, and now? Nothing and no hope of an improvement either! What has happened to the Wenger boys? why is it ...

Isn't it nice for a change for the minnows to be at the top of the premiership(well second and third). For those who don't know, I'm talking about Ipswich and Leicester. Both doing it on a shoestring budget with players that even the most ardent football anoraks would have problems recalling some names. Now i'm ...

The Premiership, as most people in the world would agree with me, is undoubtably in the top 5 leagues of the world. The Premiership is like no other. The teams in the premiership are normally of the higest standard and always give quality games week in week out. I do enjoy watching other leagues, such as leagues in, Spain Italy and France. ...

GK: Fabien Barthez (Man Utd) There is no denying that Barthez is one of the best keepers in the world today. Currently No. 1 for both World and European champions and Premiership champions, Barthez is on top form. (Also considered: Nigel Martyn, David Seaman, David James) DL: Ian Harte (Leeds) Harte is just a ...

In my view the present situation that the English Premier league finds itself in is appauling. Taking the most obvious example - "Chelsea" there must have been numerous other teams in the league that have played aginst 11 starting players, and yet none of them were English. What really sums this up is that they are managed by an Italian ...

Football is without a doubt, the best sport aorund at this present time. It is so popular all over the world and I feel it will continue to be popular and the best sport around, for many years to come. Below is a short poem about football, which has been done to make you laugh.......hopefully anyway! Football, Football, Football ...
