West Ham Relegated… Or, Avram Grant: Millwall Legend

Spotted above the DW Stadium this afternoon, at around the time Grant’s Irons were spunking a 2-0 lead at Wigan.

The Latics went on to win 3-2 and send West Ham down to the Championship. Uncle Avram is Mister Relegation.

At least now Carlton Cole will get to play at the appropriate level.

Iain Dowie Struggles With The ‘Away Goals’ Rule (Video)

Despite being paid handsomely (the irony is not lost!) to talk about things, Iain Dowie is a man that cannot actually talk – and, by the looks of things, neither can he think that good about stuff like numbers either.

Schalke whupped Inter 5-2 in Milan last night meaning that, by Dowie’s calculations, the Nerazzurri will need to score ‘seven or something’ in Germany to reverse the thrashing…

Christ! You know you’re in a hole when Paul Merson is correcting your maths.

I wonder…

Just thought I’d add this post as a bit of an experiment.

I wonder how many cr*p sp*m comments ‘readers’ will try and post. It’s been amusing me for a while now all the spun comments and blatant plugs for websites that have nothing to do with the beautiful game that get posted.

Be interesting to see how these many people follow blindly the so called ‘SEO experts’ advice and comment on blogs without even looking at what they are posting on…

Any bets??

Wigan 0-4 Blackpool: Cinderella Brought Her Combat Boots

Get used to that smile. The incredible ride continues for Ian Holloway’s Blackpool. When they won the promotion playoff last season, they got a lot of sympathy from neutrals. “How nice for them”, many of us thought. Then we started thinking about what would happen when Holloway’s attacking style met the counter-attacking speed of Premier League opposition. We saw 4-0 scorelines dancing in our heads for their league opener, but shame on us, we saw them going the other way. Granted, this Wigan side is not Champions League material, and I’m not claiming that the Pool won’t get a thumping or four this season. But when the final toot-toot was heard on this match, and the fulltime scoreline came up – Wigan nil, Blackpool four – it was something very special, and a warning that this Cinderella team isn’t happy just to be nominated.
