Manchester City Wins FA Youth Cup

April 17th, 2008 · 14 Comments

We talk a lot about the senior version of the world’s oldest domestic tournament, but the FA Youth Cup goes largely unnoticed in the media and I don’t think that’s a good thing.
More and more, the big teams in England are importing their players from overseas or buying already established or up-and-coming stars from smaller […]

Sven for the sack?

April 17th, 2008 · 5 Comments

Just what the English Premier League needs, another ill-informed, tinkering owner. I’m certain that Manchester City’s billionaire owner Thaksin Shinawatra is a reasonably intelligent man. You don’t get to be a billionaire without a little nous. However, like many other rich sports franchise owners, he does not appear to be content to stay at arm’s […]

Premier League Will Likely Receive Extra UEFA Cup Spot

February 12th, 2008 · No Comments

England’s position on top of the UEFA Fair Play rankings, calculated using a number of different criterion such as avoidance of yellow and red cards, crowd behavior, and the performance of club teams and national teams in European competitions, could lead to another UEFA Cup spot next season.
England would need to maintain their current position […]

Manchester City Misses The Mark in Munich Tribute

February 11th, 2008 · 46 Comments

 
Seeing Manchester United play in its 1950’s style uniform yesterday in the Manchester derby was a beautiful site to see. It reminded me of an age of innocence where simplicity of design and focus on beauty reigned supreme instead of the shirts of present that are moving billboards.
In contrast, while Manchester United impressed, Manchester City’s […]

Minute of Silence Upheld at Old Trafford

February 10th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I was so glad to see the capacity crowd at Old Trafford respect the minute of silence for the victims of the Munich Air Disaster this afternoon. Many people were worried that some moronic Manchester City fans would ruin the moment and jeer and howl and shout, so much so that City supporters’ groups had […]
