Sometimes it seems that Britain is just a collection of people who sit around in-wait for something that is liable to offend them. Andy, from Cardiff, clearly doesn’t like football – nor any of the people that partake in it – but that doesn’t stop him from reading and commenting on football-themed articles. In reaction […]

News of the World – Just Make it Up.

Outstanding level of nonsense from Andy Dunn, Chief mockney b****cks-merchant at The News of The World, this morning. Jumping into the ‘City spend money recklessly’ discussion, a mere three days after it happened, he reasons that Sir Alex Ferguson is in no place to comment on transfer policy, or in his own words: For a […]

Do you remember those times at school when you used to copy people’s homework? And how when you did it, you would always change around a couple of sentences and restructure the odd paragraph? Well, it seems that this is a lost art… From – ClubCall – 20/8/10. William Gallas is likely to go straight […]
Balotelli Watch…

So… in his first twenty-five minutes as a Manchester City player, Mario Balotelli managed to score, square-up to the FC Timisoara captain, get lectured by the referee twice, get booked, and nearly score again. I’m sure we’ll come to like you once we get to know you Mario.
Craig Bellamy: A Football Life Less Ordinary

Ah, Craig Bellamy. Man of many clubs, many words, some goals, and one enormous cumulative transfer fee. Value for money? £6m Norwich to Coventry: Craig’s Norwich team-mates supposedly take to locking him in the coach toilet on away trips, so unbearably audible is his level of self-confidence. £8m Coventry to Newcastle: Craig gives a public […]
Message Board ‘Legends’
Posted: August 18, 2010 by thepremierleagueowl in BanterTags: Tottenham, Young Boys Bern
Two for the price of one today, as we have another giggle at message board ‘people’ – the cyber equivalent of the unsettling types that hang around football grounds on non-match days, hoping to be interviewed by Sky Sports News. Anyway, hopefully everyone remembers the film ‘Anchorman’, and more specifically the scene where Steve Carell […]
Volte-face on Niccy.
Posted: August 18, 2010 by thepremierleagueowl in BanterTags: 18 game ban, French FA, Nicolas Anelka
Huge transfer fees, periodic sulks and a lack of inclination to ever pass the ball has left Nicolas Anelka with the same level of popularity as Council Tax. That might be about to change though, after, in response to the French FA ending his international career with an 18-game ban, he said this: “For me, […]
Message Board ‘Legends’

Another day, another Daily Mail reader. This morning Karl from London, commenting on Sir Alex Ferguson’s purchase of Bebe, shows a lack of understanding of how football clubs scout players from around the world. Still, your credibility was just about intact until your David Ngog reference: He’s one of the most hypocritical fellas in the […]
Message Board ‘Legends’
Posted: August 17, 2010 by thepremierleagueowl in BanterTags: Wayne Rooney, Daily Mail
It’s fair to say that the Daily Mail walks hand-in-hand with general melodrama. So, step-forward Ivor Court, in response to this morning’s match report from Old Trafford: Rooney has definitely lost the plot. Look into his eyes……..Does he need Psychiatric treatment……..I think so. What? Look into his eyes? Have a look at yourself Ivor….
