So just to keep the story-line flowing, AFC beat Fleetwood Town 2-1 with a penalty in the 73rd minute. They remain in League Two for the 2013-14 season.

John Terry isn't exactly an angel outside of the racial abuse incident he created. I don't know if 10 games is fair or not, but if Suarez was English he wouldn't miss that many matches, that's for...
^ Yeah, I love the way he plays the game. I'll laugh my arse off if he wins Footballer of the Year in England. :D But don't think he will because that requires votes which means you have to be...
Messi is having a sub-par season? Pass me the mushrooms! :D
There's a very good reason Barca were outscored 3-1 to PSG when Messi was on the bench and lost 4-0 to Bayern.
One of AFC's biggest matches of their existence will be played this weekend. If they lose or draw they will be relegated out of League football. And since only 2 teams get relegated/promoted...
Yeah, I hope BVB can pull off the upset. But it would be quite the upset. I know they won the group, but Madrid's form has improved since then and BVB's performance against Malaga doesn't exactly...
How bad was Mark Clatenburg (sp?) today? English refs truly live by a separate set of rules. He literally got nothing right! Zero!
For the first 75 minutes all of his horrible decisions were...
Personally I don't read much into PSG's 2nd leg performance. Most teams look bad in the 2nd leg after they win the first-leg on the road. Look at Bayern against Arsenal or Barca against Madrid (in...
I thought the 3-2 scoreline flattered Valencia TBH and Barca barely got past a feeble Milan team. So based on what I saw over the past month, PSG > Barca. But yeah... I think Barca will wake up in...
If they decide to have the WC in the winter, they should have to re-do the selection phase to determine the host country. The country nominations were put together based on the assumption that the...
Ibra suspended for the first-leg against Barca. Even though he rarely does anything in the CL anyway, that's a key loss (because PSG really need some goals in the first-leg at home).
Yeah, Barca definitely showed that when there's a big match there is nobody better than Xavi, Iniesta and Messi. So can't write them off that's for sure. Even though this is a very average Milan side.
Didn't need to. They were winning even at 0-0. But they did come about as close as you can come without scoring on that chance in the first-half.
I'm surprised you posted this even after Barca's loss to Madrid. They’re basically down to their 3rd-string manager and haven’t been playing well for a while. It’s not like the Milan game was a...
Wasn't against the run of play. Maybe against the run of possession, but that's different. How could Madrid have had the run of play when the only team generating scoring chances was Man Utd? ...
*confused* The Man Utd goal came just a few minutes before the red. The game was going exactly how Sir Alex drew it up in his head beforehand. He was perfectly willing to concede possession to...
Firstly, one goal probably wasn't going to be enough. Secondly I didn't think Madrid generated many chances for the first 55 minutes. That's why everyone is saying the card changed everything. Man...
I have no love for Man Utd but they were robbed blind! Never thought I'd say this but I feel bad for Alex Ferguson. He totally got the tactics right, out-managed Mourinho by a mile, and the ref...
They can be, although the only useful thing that they are ever used for (that I'm aware of) is seeding for WC qualifying and the WC final draw. Since Brazil isn't involved in the former and are...
Ahh... nostalgia. You're talking about a time when there was a military draft in the USA. When half the world was in war, racism and homophobia was far more prevalent, driving impaired was totally...
Yeah, maybe. My main beef with religion is when it makes good people behave like fukwits. To give an example, in Brooklyn recently, the whole Jewish community supported a child molester simply...
John Terry? Chelsea played their best football after he got red-carded and suspended! Plus he's been injured most of this season.
The EPL's best players don't appear as dominant because they aren't as good. Simple as that. How do I know? Because many of the EPL's best players came from La Liga, where they were very good but...
Exactly! It's not just a case "of a few a-holes" that make religion look bad. Religious people in general do a fine job of that. There is no good argument against same-sex marriage, for example,...
Well, you said the key word there: nationalistic. Is there a country more nationalistic than Russia? I doubt it. On one hand, their nationalism is the only reason all of Europe isn't Germany right...
