Aaron Lennon: Potential Starting To Pay Dividends

by Michael Timbury on April 3, 2009 · 0 comments

Since the turn of the year, Aaron Lennon has been in outstanding form. His club exploits have been rewarded with not just an international call up, but a place in the starting eleven in England’s last two matches, the latter being a competitive qualifier. This is just rewards for Lennon as he has been absolutely [...]

The Relegation Rumble: Portsmouth

by tyduffy on March 26, 2009 · 1 comment

Until late October, Portsmouth seemed destined for a mid-table season. After a rough August start against Chelsea and Man United, the trophy-winning club won four out of seven matches, looking frisky once again.

Now that Eduardo is back, I was expecting this one. Last year when the injury happened, we got headlines galore about no apology being made. Tonight, that same headline is back.
Of course there is two sides to every story, and Martin Taylor certainly has his. He claims to have done everything to apologize after Eduardo [...]

It took a couple of days, but the rift in the Chelsea dressing room seems to have finally made it out onto the public forum of the press.
It all had to start with John Terry, doing his best to absolve his blame in Scolari’s sacking by saying he was behind the manager 100 percent, but [...]
