    Pat Jennings dressed as an oil filter...

    Worth having a look at this football blog to remind yourself of what it was like before footballers were millionaires. Not old enough to remember all the ads on their, but seeing Pat Jennings dressed as an oil filter (number 5) was funny/slightly sad. Imagine how much he'd be on these days.

    Great Steve McClaren protest

    Anyone see this? The Wolfburg fans turned up with brollies to a game to protest against Steve McClaren. There's a great picture on this football tips blog. Classic. Feel slightly sorry for McClaren though, he'll never live that umbrella thing down.

    McCleish to United??!

    Source: Premier League football blog -The next Man United manager Surely not? :omg: Just becasue he managed him when he was a player doesn't mean he is suitable for the job, why not get Steve Bruce in if that is the measure. Moyes seems hotly tipped but I don't feel he has done enough(or won...

    Fulham match chat thread

    Came across a nice preview of our festive fixtures from this football blog on Tottenham Hotspur. Hopefully this year we'll improve on record for the match after Boxing Day too - one win in last 5 years just isn't good enough! Although two London matches isn't ideal, we need to get the points...

    Liverpool in the Champions League

    Well, Benitez's side's performances are nothing if not unpredictable in the Champions League. I thought with all the turmoil domestically, they'd pull something out before now, traditionally he uses the tournament to save his bacon when their league challenge goes to pot. As noted by this...

    Transfer rumour: Vicente

    http://www.goal.com/en-india/news/2175/la-liga/2009/11/10/1615557/tottenham-hotspur-tracking-valencias-vicente-report Haven't seen Vicente play too much to be honest, although he's always been handy on PES! If he has a dodgy injury record doesn't really sound like what we need, but if he has...

    Phil Brown facing the chop

    New Hull chairman Adam Pearson has refused to guarantee Brown will still be in charge after their match against Stoke this weekend, so worth paying attention to see how much loyalty their is in that Hull dressing room towards the manager. If they want him to stay they'll have to play out of...
