Luton have had a bad lot of it this year… From cock-bag Barwick stealing 30 points from them earlier in the year to more bollocks from the FA, they’ve struggled against all adversity and somehow still (just about) have an (admittedly very outside) chance to stay up, and have made the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy final at Wembley – in what will no doubt be a fitting swansong to the loyal reams of happy Hatters who have stuck by their team throughout.

Courtesy of studs up, and a dedication to all those Man Utd. fans and the brash "I think we're going to win 5 trophies" comments that have been dancing across their lips... Are you still going to win it boys? Oooh - not so sure now...

Mercifully sparing his teammates the pain of listening to his out of tune ramblings “
Here it's all hip-hop, all in English, so they don't understand a thing. They want to hear it, they ask me, but I say no to them. If they don't understand, what's the point of making them listen to it?" Tevez told The Times of his former West Ham team mates... Unfortunately you darksiders aren’t so lucky…Follow this link I command you!
Mind numbing isn’t it – and...

Gattuso (definately gay - see picture) – personally one of my favourite grizzled old I-Ti generals, and a workhouse to boot. He sticks his head where armoured wild horses fear to tread, and oh so often he does it with passion and (previously) great hair.
And now he’s been ruled out for the rest of the season with a serious knee injury – he has to find something to do, and launching a tongue-lashing towards Sir Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho seems the way forward in the midfield general’s mind.
You see, he has recently claimed that his side AC Milan would have beaten Manchester United in the Champions League had they qualified for the competition this season. “If we had faced Manchester United, we would have won. The Champions League is alw...

For as the players made their back to the centre-circle for the restart, the announcer - a stand-in for the regular matchday host (allegedly) quipped: "Scoring his first goal for Preston, Ben Turner." A comment that annoyed me far less than Ben’s blunderous error – come on… Now is it just me, or is that pretty amusing? It’s bloody grim up North and they really need something to smile about…
Preston general manager Ben Rhodes told the Lancashire Evening Post: "We agree with Chris Coleman, it was unprofessional and it shouldn't have happened. Unfortunately, we had a stand-in for our regular announcer who was on ho...

Haha - footballers aren't always the sharpest tools in the box, and as this blog is dedicated in no small part to such stupidity... Do feel free to share a giggle with me at twattish AZ Alkmaar keeper Sergio Romero, who recently shattered his hand after punching a door following his side’s cup defeat to NAC Breda last week. The Argentinian - who managed to keep his temper in check until he was in front of a camera - will now miss the Eredivisie leaders’ title run-in after the ill-advised tantrum with his mangled hoof.
AZ coach Louis Van Gaal said: “That is his Argentine temperament. It wasn’t smart of Sergio to vent his frustrations like this. I think his season is over.” Geesh.

Another day another race row – and this time it’s ex-pride of the Bridge and notorious tinkerman Claudio Ranieri who has found himself in a big pot of hot Chinese soup – after brandishing referee Paolo Tagliavento "Chinese" – after he was accused being too strict on his side in their recent 2-1 reverse at the hands of Lazio in the Coppa Italia.
"I did not like the entire direction of the match. I found the official was tough with us, on the field it seemed as if he was Chinese, as it was always yellow cards with us," he told Rai rag – which prompted a backlash in the Far East with the nations biggest paper Titan, demanding an apology.
Ranieri remains defiant though, explaining himself by stating "against Lazio, the referee changed and blew his whistle for all fouls and gave yellow cards. So I said he was like a Chinese referee. ...

Would you rather have the turgid, lazy David Bentley, or this magnificently energetic dog in your starting X1..? Sorry - had to ask

God how I would have laughed if I’d been there!
Sadly though, a tracker in Gary’s 200mph car let police pick up its trail in York soon after it was taken on Monday, meaning that the blushing ‘Boro chump was able to be reunited with his motor in hours of it being stolen – with the...
