Three months ago The Sun ran a story headlined Abu are ya? in which it was claimed that Marlon King had converted to Islam, had asked to be known as Abu Hamza Tariq in honour of the well-known cleric and hate figure, and that he was telling people he was all set to join Chelsea [...]
This morning, may we present conclusive evidence that nobody is listening to anybody when it comes to transfer rumours. Thank you for your co-operation (or lack of) in advance, The Sun and Manchester United:
It all begins here, when yesterday Neil Custis reporting from Philadelphia on Manchester United’s pre-season records the following:
Fergie: I’ve got all I need
But Fergie said: [...]
The Capello Index. It’s a simple concept. Players are rated according to a complex formula based on their every contribution to a game of football, and the results are laid out in statistical form with a score of 100 being the best and 0 being the worst. And to give the stats a shot in [...]
How to explain the following two statements, both allegedly made by Luis Fabiano within the last month?
June 27th: “There would be no point in me joining Tottenham, I might as well stay at Sevilla, it’s the same thing.
“Sevilla are actually bigger when you look at how much we have been in the European Cup, so there would [...]
As the 2010 Open begins in earnest this morning the focus of the media will be centred on 1 of the 156 competitors. You might have heard that late last year it emerged that Tiger Woods had been having some affairs, and that made him a terrible person, and meant that he had betrayed the [...]

Who will play in goal? Capello doesn’t tell us. And that’s how it goes. This is how things were for the USA, and Shaun Custis at The Sun is happy to tell us on June 16th exclusively that that is how it will continue to be come the Algeria game:
Fabio sticks to his name game
FABIO CAPELLO will [...]
Tough week to be the England goalkeeper. There was a minor incident on Saturday night, the sort which turns unthreatening long-range efforts into goals, and 3 points into 1. It wasn’t pretty, but it happens. It doesn’t derail qualification, and it won’t be the difference between a World Cup victory and a World Cup exit.
Robert Green, [...]
Remember on Friday when everyone was positive about England and their chances in this year’s World Cup? Friday and Monday - well, they’re two completely different days of the week. And in the interim there was this football match, right, in which England did quite well in parts, but contrived not to win. Papers like [...]
