Disneyland

1
Who would ever have thought that the world of football could be likened to Disneyland?

Well Joe Kinnear for a start.

So if Mickey Mouse is a metaphor for referee Martin Atkinson, what other characters might we identify?

Who, for example, might Sam Allardyce be?

Off The Post’s Thanksgiving List

0
As our American cousins are gorging themselves on huge portions of food (even more so than normal days), here are some things we are thankful for... 1. Turkey. Thankfully now he has stepped down as Arsenal captain he can go get stuffed. 2. Foreign sugar daddies who bankroll our clubs with scant regard for words like 'recession' [.

Joe Kinnear in Disneyland

0
We wouldn't write blogs about football if we didn't think it was rife with symbolism. It seems those within the game think the same way -- see Arsene Wenger's bizarre attempt to inspire his players by pointing out how Barack Obama rose to the top of the US government even though 'nobody really knows what his ideas are.

Which Premier League Clubs Will Get Relegated This Season?

2
Just as it's difficult to predict who will win the Premier League race this year, it's going to be even harder to pick which three clubs will be relegated. After watching all of the teams play, none of them look like relegation candidates. Sure, one week ago Spurs looked like relegation certainties, but with Harry Houdini [.

Great Scott!

Harry Redknapp improbably turns Spurs from zeroes to heroes, from villainy to last gasp valiance in the blink of an eye. Joe Kinnear rants, raves and ruminates but turns Joey Barton from A Wing to A list as Newcastle rediscover some sort of fire in their bloated Geordie bellies. And who completes this list of improbable sixty something success stories? Click to continue reading...

Quinton Quiz - Football Buzzards part II (swearing edition)

0
For those of you who are still unfamiliar with Quinton Quiz then here's a little introduction, he's the love child of Maggie Thatcher, Statto & Roy Cropper from Cori.

Fantasy Premier League Blog Mirrors Real Life: Fantasy Soccer Sign of Apocalypse Upon Us

0
Some supporters tell us that we are the wittiest fantasy premier league blog. Drunkenly, they chant our name at stadiums across the globe, "Never Captain Nicky Butt! Never Captain Nicky Butt!"

Joe Kinnear's Swears Make Baby Jesus Cry

Great story.

The last time Joe Kinnear (Newcastle's new signing) coached a game, with Nottingham Forest in 2004, he was given a two-game ban after a verbal altercation with the ref.
