Finally, some news to report

01:08 PM, Saturday, 05 July 2008

Just like the renegade master, I'm back once again. Andrea Dossena is thrilled to be signing for us. He declares that we're a great team and who am I to argue. I think that he'll do well this year. Capello rates him highly apparently. Riise is thrilled to be signing for...

The Red Army, The Russian Hitman and Paul Ince

To start off with, the Russia vs Sweden match must be discussed.

A bridge too far

I used this post title after the final in Athens but I think that it's more appropriate now after losing at Stamford Bridge. We gave it everything but came up short. We were rubbish in the first half but better in the second. Chelsea deserved it over 120 mins but over the two legs we...

Ginger blunder

09:16 PM, Wednesday, 23 April 2008

As Unlucky Alf in the fast show would say, "oh bugger". What should have been 2-0 or 3-0 but was 1-0 became 1-1 with the last kick of the game. I'm sure Riise didn't mean it, but if only he had a right foot, he would have been able to lash it clear rather than head it into his...
