Football in General Reviews

I feel that the sport of football has, in recent years, become something akin to buying stocks and shares. The team you support has not generally enough money to purchase players of a high enough standard to compete well against the rest of the league. Take Man U (the obvious choice) - loads of cash, players worth tens of millions of pounds, and ...

The new BarclayCard Premiership season is underway, and the usual questions are being asked: 'Will Man Utd crumble?' 'Will Liverpool or Leeds finally make a race for the title?' 'Who will go down?' 'How many red cards will Dennis Wise get?', and 'Will Seaman ever change that hairstyle?' Every ...

Football to many is the most important thing in the world. If you dream of managing your favourite team to the FA cup final or just survival in the third division then Championship manager is the game for you. This is a game you can totally immerse yourself in and is so realistic you may forget that it is just a game. You will experience all the ...

As every club tries to make as much money as they can, and considering the prospect of the new transfer regulations, it is no suprise that sponsorship deals are big business. Shirt sponsors are now taken for granted, with almost every club having one (Barcelona do not have shirt sponsors)with the likes of Manchester United wearing ...

England's 5-1 demolition of Germany in the Olympic Stadium in Munich was sensational and totally unexpected. The goals scored by Michael Owen were of the highest calibre and I thoroughly enjoyed the game and felt proud of my country. This was a night which will be remembered for a long time in English football and rightly so. ...

What have POSH done to deserve Barry Fry. Sure he's probably the most charasmatic and entertaining manager in english football but why oh why does he have to manage us! Does no-one seem to realise he has all the tactical knowledge of a trained potato? Is it fair that a team with an outstanding squad like Man City get KEVIN KEEGAN, ...

Football. One word. Football. Football, football, football. Sheesh, how can one single word mean so many things, and bring so much joy and sorrow and love and excitement. Football’s great, you see. I love football. 99% of the time, when I’m not thinking about my children (which, really is, a huge amount of the time), I’m thinking ...

Your naïve response means: Here are the final positions: Leeds United – he’s done it. O’Leary made it theirs – Bowyer – player of the year. Liverpool – so close for Houllier’s men, Owen and Heskey were fantastic. Arsenal – 3rd place for the ...

OK so I’m not confessing to have the greatest knowledge about football…but who would have thought Bolton Wanderers would be at the top of the Premiership with 2 wins from their opening two games. Well done Bolton. They have certainly proved themselves not to be an easier push over as everyone had deemed them. I have to admit ...

When Sven Goran Eriksson ended all traditional values this country ever had by taking over the England National team, I for one publicly said this was probably the worst appointment of manager our beloved England had ever seen, and we have seen a few. Glenn Hoddle, Graham Taylor, even Kevin Keegan managed England and all have achieved practically ...

Well the season is a few weeks old now and it is much as I thought it would be. Chelsea are the same no matter who is playing for the blues we always seem to play in the same way. Now you have to realise I look at the world through blue tinted spectacles so you must forgive me if you feel I am unacceptably biased. Chelsea are ...

Speculation about the Old Firm joining the Premiership has died down somewhat mainly because the football season has started and papers have some real news to fill their pages. I still think the whole story was a great PR coup by the Celtic board in a runup to a new shares issue. The prospect of all that Sky money coming in may have ...

football is a great sport, it's fun to play as long as you can work in a team. - Advantages: Great fun , Keeps you healthy - Disadvantages: Tiring

Now before I begin I would just like to say that I actually don't mind football. When I was a kid the retinue would be this: Wake up go to school, play football at break and launch, come home, play football, eat dinner, play football and then go to sleep! It was great, what else could you ask for. But as I grew older and ...

There's recently been a lot of talk about the Old Firm rivals, Celtic and Rangers, leaving the SPL and joining our Premier League. Well, it aint called the "Premier" league for nothing. Sorry Glasweigans, but I don't think it's a good idea. Firstly, there is the obvious fact that these two teams are Scottish, ...

Now, many people have raised eye-brows at Glenn Hoddles recent signing, Christian Zeige. However, it is my belief that Zeige still has it in him to replicate his performancces of his AC Milan and Bayern Munich days. The transfer saga lasted the entire monthe of June, as well as most of July, and Hoddle finnaly landed him for a fee ...

Well the new premiership season is almost with us once again. As you can tell by my user name I am a CHELSEA fan living in exile, in fact far too close to the dreaded home of the Magpie for my own liking. Still to the reason for my writing. Once again the dreaded Alex Ferguson has named Chelsea as one of the sides if not the side he sees as ...

This review is not on football as we all know and love, but instead a football based game I like to play with my friends that I thought I would share with the rest of the world. I'm sure there will be a lot of people familiar with it already, but this is for the benefit of those who aren't. Headers and Volleys is the name ...

The last 24 hrs have demonstrated to a large extent the progress that has been made by Scotlands top two clubs during the last year. Celtic defeated Manchester United 4-3 and Rangers beat Maribor in the European Champions League 6 - 1 on agregate. This is a huge improvement on last seasons performances and augurs well for the future. The ...

I am 20 years old and I have loved football ever since I was about 5. I have always admired London clubs, although I would have to say that my favourite team is the mighty Liverpool. They have got so many good players in their squad, it's amazing. Liverpool are just one of 20 top teams in the country who play in the top league called ...
