Abuse from opposing fans – Where do you draw the line?

10
Did Spurs fans go to far? The issues raised at Portsmouth on Saturday, regarding the vile song sung by ‘supporters' of Tottenham Hotspur have opened up a can of worms that has quite frankly been sealed too long. Sol Campbell was subjected to a song that was racist (hanging from a tree), homophobic (HIV reference)), personal (lunacy reference) and offensive on almost every other level.

A Look At: Football Punk

1
With an increasing number of sports pages devoted to the sport, a number of magazine and countless websites all purporting to cover every angle of the game of football, it is difficult to see any room for new publications.

Yet they come nevertheless. The latest is Football Punk, an offshoot of the successful Golf Punk magazine which is owned by former Liverpool defender Phil Babb. Click to continue reading...

Lucas Neill To Rally His West Ham Troops

1
Thomas Rooney – Freelance Sports Journalist West Ham United are in a strange situation right now. Their manager Alan Curbishley quit yesterday after a disagreement with the clubs owners over the transfer policy at Upton Park and now it seems no-one wants to take over the reigns.

Bilic leads race for West Ham job after angry Curbishley quits

0
Harry Redknapp will resist the lure of an emotional return to West Ham United. The Portsmouth manager fears he would suffer the same constraints that prompted Alan Curbishley to resign yesterday. That has left the Croatia coach, Slaven Bilic, as the favourite to take up the reins at Upton Park. Click to continue reading...

Slaven Bilic WestHam'a

Green Street Hooligans filmini izleyen herkeste bir WestHam sempatisi oluşması doğaldır. Zira film WestHam taraftarlarını anlatıyor. Konuda diğer ismi geçen ise Euro2008 öncesi hem rock dinliyor / çalıyor hem de küpeli diye basınımızın epeyce hoşuna giden Slaven Bilic. Bilic deyince benim aklıma önce attıkları goldeki çiğ sevinçleri sonra milli takımın golündeki surat ifadesi en son da hakeme okkalı sallayışları geliyor. Click to continue reading...

Middle Eastlands - A Manchester City Revolution?

Harry Redknapp must have been raging. Dunking a Digestive biscuit into his mid-morning tea, the unexpected purchase of Manchester City by a consortium of billionaires from Abu Dhabi can only have left a bitter taste in his mouth. Its bad enough there being a credit crunch, the effects of which have this summer denied him the permission to open up the Portsmouth purse strings as much as he'd have Click to continue reading...

Diarra, 23, has been one of Pompey's top performers in recent months and inspired the club to their first major trophy in 90 years, when they won the FA Cup last season. Click to continue reading...

Rafael Benitez Puts Fabio Capello In His Place

4
Rafa Benitez told Fabio Capello that Liverpool came before England, and that any decisions taken over Steven Gerrard's medical treatment were exclusively Liverpool's.

Capello was upset to learn that Gerrard had been sent for a groin operation, ruling him out of the start of England's World Cup qualifying campaign. Click to continue reading...

Portsmouth Feels the Wrath of Early Season Schedule

2

Picture from the Independent via Getty Images.

2 games, 0 points. No goals scored and five goals allowed.

What those numbers don't tell you are the two opponents in question. At Stamford Bridge against Chelsea and then host to Manchester United.

When Portsmouth saw their early season schedule, they had to be a little concerned.

The Managerial Merry-Go-Round Grinds Into Gear

It usually takes approximately three matches before the rumour mill starts to rotate, so it is that time again. Already, there is talk that Alan Curbishley is going to be kicked out from West Ham United, and that Harry Redknapp is going to make a "surprise" return to the East End to take over there. [.

Is the Premier League a two-horse race between Manchester United and Chelsea?

The Portsmouth manager certainly thinks so, although perhaps he's slightly biased considering his team has just lost their opening matches to the two teams. Harry Redknapp saw his team beaten 4-0 on the opening weekend of the season to Chelsea, while last night the Red Devils edged the match 1-0 ... Click to continue reading...

United's slick passing machine simply too good for Pompey...

Predictably, much has been made of the Reds lack of a cutting edge up front without an obvious out and out striker available to Fergie. But on the evidence of the Champions performance against Portsmouth on Monday night there's little worry about, with Rooney and in particular Carlos Tevez looking razor sharp.

Who's gonna coach 2012 English Olympic team?

1
I'll tell you who wants it. Former Sounder icon Harry Redknapp.

Of course, he was also quick to criticize Capello's national side. And Portsmouth is about to go 0-2 after a merciless Chelsea-United one-two punch to start the Premiership season.
"I'm absolutely flattered that my name is being mentioned about managing the Great Britain team," gushed Redknapp before adding, "I've had some great managerial jobs during my career but there is no doubt this would be the icing on the cake.

Portsmouth snap up Arsenal starlet

Harry Redknapp is firmly in wheeler-dealer mode at the moment, laughing off talk about making some big-money signings and instead focusing on bringing in players on loan or a cut-price deal.

Quote of the Day - Harry Redknapp Redux...

2
Harry Redknapp, the Portsmouth manager and Setanta pundit whom I quoted earlier today, rubbed the England gaffer's rhubarb the wrong way with his comments regarding the lacklustre performance versus the Czech's yesterday and primarily with the positioning of a certain Scouser. Now, Mr. Capello responded shortly after saying that he was playing a 4-3-2-1 and said Scouser, Steven Gerrard, was indeed playing behind the striker, along side Master Rooney.

United's star duo boost hopes...

There can be little doubt that Fergie will be glad that Brazil's interest in the Olympic Games has come to a shuddering end after being thumped 3-0 by South American rivals Argentina. The result means that Anderson is likely to be back in Manchester and ready for action in the next few days.

The Reds have an injury crisis on their hands and are currently without Carrick, Hargreaves, Ronaldo and Giggs. Click to continue reading...

A Return to Football for Phil Babb

3
What do footballers get up to once they retire? Once it was a pretty straightforward choice between finding a way into football management, going to work in a factory or else buying a pub, with the ultimate decision depending largely on how much money any testimonial had managed to raise.
These days players, at least those lucky enough to spend some time in the Premiership, have no such problems. Click to continue reading...
