Last wek the BBC did a dreadful documentary accusing all and sundry of bribery and corruption, this week both candidates for presidency and the whiter than white Mr Warner has have been accused of offering cash incentives, it's fucling ridiculous.

The whole "hoof ball", "score from throw ins" stereotype is lazy and bullshit. Stoke have genuinely world class players now. Robert Huth is a a 2-time Premier League Champion, and he's only 27, Salif Diao is a Ligue 1 winner, League Cup winner, and has played at the World Cup Finals, Jermain Pennant helped take Liverpool to the Champions League final in 2007, Ryan Shawcross is one of England's brightest prospects in defence, a never-say-die powerful defender, Matthew Upson, another England hero, who scored at the last World Cup and won the Premier League with Arsenal in 2002, Peter Crouch is one of the world's most prolific strikers at international level, he is a Championship and FA Cup winner, his goal ratio for England is simply stunning, Jonathan Woodgate is a national treasure, League Cup winner, and former Real Madrid heavyweight. When you mix all this success and prestige with the GOAT arms of Rory Delap, you have one of the finest, and most unique football sides since the Dutch masters of the 1970s. Stoke are taking Europe by storm, just like The Beatles did in America. This is the era of Pulis, of the Potteries, of Stoke.

Instead of invading countries, using drones and cruise missiles--I say we just sponsor soccer matches. They seem to have no problem killing one another for any ol' trivial reason. Would be really economical. Have the World Cup every year instead of every four years.

Unfortunately this is indicative of the rotting corpse that the Premiership has become Clint, our 12th best player, has decided that the MLS is the better option. USA soccer is rising fast which is fantastic for the game, I can see the likes of Utd and Chelsea joining the league within 5 years. MLS is now more popular in Asia than the PL, a true indicator of a leagues quality

Back in the nineties I met one of the men who emptied my dust bin just as I was leaving the house. He said "fantastic result last night mate," or something to that effect to which I replied in all innocence "what result?" He thought I was joking but I assured him I had no idea what he was talking about. He said "you don't like football then or follow the world cup," I replied no. His response then took me completely by surprise,"to be honest I don't either, I only go along with it so I'm not the odd one out at work and with my mates." Since that day I have wondered how many foot ball fans don't actually like football but daren't admit it. Personally I have never understood the appeal of football and have been accused of been unpatriotic. My reply to this is the next time our boys want rescuing from a beach in Dunkerque I'll be there in a small boat not watching a group of blokes kicking a bag of wind about.

http://grantland.com/the-triangle/bendita-camino-why-i-love-atletico-madrid/quote:On the game’s last play, Diego Forlan, who five years later would lead Atletico to second-tier European glory, equalized with a header off a set piece. A fan who sat in front of the media section and smelled of weed went nuts. The scene was perversely endearing, a final primer on everything I needed to know about what I was getting into. This grown man gesticulating wildly, imploring foreign journalists to take note of his tormented story, brought me closer. I stared at the name on the fan’s jersey and remembered John Motson’s voice in the video game for the 1998 World Cup.

What I like about Prof. Szymanski is his son has no interest in football at all, and is instead starting quarterback for Oxford University. Really makes you think, imo.

"It takes a certain level of courage to go with an American because if it doesn't work out, it's not, 'The player didn't work out.' It's, 'the American didn't work out,'" Lalas said. "Not only did you mess up, but you messed up with an American. In the realm of hedging your bets, that was a much riskier proposition given the perception and given where Americans have traditionally been."
