the world’s most boring transfer window ever has come and gone, and i’m still feeling a bit jilted from the entire experience. as much as i think it’s a good thing that the world of football is finally being a bit more responsible (or maybe everyone is flat broke?), i still wish there would have been […]

for as much as i hate the highly packed winter schedule that the premier league throws at the clubs (it’s like 15° outside and the league feels it’s necessary to make each club play three times in two weeks. why put so much stress on the players?), i go a little stir crazy in between game […]

turmoil in the world of football (postponements like i’ve never seen in england, the togo bus shooting, liverpool’s bumbling boardroom idiots, etc.) has left me debating what i should write my next long article about. it’s like i can’t get my head wrapped around something before another major story breaks. oh well, it could be worse.

it’s so unsurprising, but now that i find myself with more time to write than i can remember, there hasn’t been as much going on to write about for these (somewhat) regular news rounds ups. lucky for you, i’ve scoured the deepest reaches of the interwebs to dig up some interesting tidbits that you might […]

judging from my lack of posts as of late, i wouldn’t blame you if you thought i had been kidnapped by mexican drug lords or that i was eaten alive by a rogue bear. but as you can see from my recent postings that neither has been the case, though i am sorry that i’ve […]

there’s just too much going on in the world of football for me to even keep up lately, which is just a part of the reason why i started up the twitter account (don’t forget to follow me @wrongsideofpond!). world qualifiers have dominated the headlines the last week or so, but the league’s are picking […]

there are only about a million things i want to write about, though madrid’s first loss of the season and tottenham’s slump in form have me less enthusiastic about detailing their misfortunes. however, my life has been super busy the last few weeks and there hasn’t been as much time to write as i would […]
