Where’s Our Sponsor?

It looks like the Hoops may finally land a coveted shirt sponsor; The Dallas News is reporting that the Hoops are in the process of negotiating a five year deal with a few unnamed sponsors. But it doesn't sound like things are going smoothly

Mascot Masquerade

0
Maybe we're getting old, but the launching of the new mascot for the 2010 World Cup has made us feel that people sometimes take things a bit too seriously.

At the Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg yesterday, world football's governing body unveiled the latest in a long line of cuddly and lovable characters who, it's hoped, will convey the element of fun that the World Cup holds within. Click to continue reading...

What is this HIDEOUS creature?

1

If you're like me, you might have been wondering why there was a strange beast wandering around the pitch at the end of the Grenoble game. Since I have nothing better to do as I bide my time waiting for Massimo Oddo to complete his loan move to Lyon and for the Champions League draw to take place, I did some investigating.

Some Sort of Scouse Joke

1
Liverpudlians are renowned for a slightly strange sense of humour, probably because of the crap weather and proximity to Ireland. It turns out that Liverpool signed a rather bizarre player last month and he goes by the name Baa-nitez.

Followed that with a home Carling Cup draw against Carlisle in the next round. And the week ended with QPR travelling to Sheffield to play Sheffield United and to suffer their worst-ever League Defeat to Sheffield United. Click to continue reading...

In The Cat Corner

1
When STT was first started almost a year ago, there were two things that I promised myself I would never resort too; up-the-arse corner, and shit look-a-likes. However, while the below picture comes dangerously close to the former, I like to think I've just about side-stepped the bane of most half-baked football magazines and supposedly humourous blogs.

SuperLiga jokes

Another mediotiempo cartoon, this one at DC United's expense. Maybe I missed the humor of it, though it always amuses me to see DC depicted as a blond semi-surfer-looking dude with a top hat. Is there anyone on United who looks remotely like that?
Anyway, the burro of Atlante says, "All gringos are alike. Click to continue reading...

Teaching a lesson

The Pachuca mascot has a message for Chivas USA. He says to the defeated little goat with the baseball cap, "Go and tell your older brother that we're the real team of Mexico!"
