Rio Ferdinand gives rail passenger nice surprise Posted: 10 Jan 2013 05:15 AM PST Rio Ferdinand may come across as something of a dick at times on Twitter, being gloriously out of touch with fans, but he should be hugely respected for his latest Twitter act. For when a lady saw Rio Ferdinand on her train, she tweeted her friend to let her know of her excitement. The friend [...]

AFC Wimbledon’s Jack Midson uses Twitter as a football diary Posted: 10 Jan 2013 04:33 AM PST Bloody modern football eh? AFC Wimbledon striker Jack Midson is using Twitter to organise his social diary around his football work meetings. Rather than using any of his contacts at the club to ask them when a particular football match is, he instead contacted them via Twitter. It seems a slightly strange way of doing [...]

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli goes blonde Posted: 10 Jan 2013 03:07 AM PST With all the camouflage Bentleys and bathroom pyrotechnics, you might be forgiven for thinking that Mario Balotelli already has enough fun.

Manchester United flop Bebe scores for Rio Ave to give them cup success Posted: 10 Jan 2013 02:11 AM PST It has not been a great two years at Manchester United for £7.8million signing Bebe. Two league appearances, a four-game loan spell at Besiktas that was ended after he broke a team curfew, and the now constant feature of inclusion in many a ‘worst ever Premier League signings’ list. However, a ray of light for [...]

Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos sent-off for kicking opponent in the face Posted: 10 Jan 2013 01:22 AM PST The thing with a winter break in football is that it forces a hardened card addict like Sergio Ramos to go cold turkey. Let them loose on a football pitch again in January and they’re bound to overdose. The Real Madrid defender got his fix during last night’s victory over Celta Vigo. He satisfied his [...]

‘Ave it! Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho belts a ball in anger Posted: 10 Jan 2013 01:02 AM PST Jose Mourinho is under a fair bit of pressure at Real Madrid right now and he gave a very public display of his frustrations during last night’s match against Celta Vigo. The Special One scurried from his dugout to collect a ball and drop kick it in the general direction of a terrified member of [...]

Only three players on Portsmouth’s 2013 official calendar still play for the club! Posted: 10 Jan 2013 12:52 AM PST We recently brought you news that Newcastle’s 2013 calendar featuring the now departed Demba Ba as Mr January. Well, Toon Army, there’s always someone worse off than yourself… and they’re usually a Portsmouth supporter. One disgruntled Pompey fan has tweeted a photo of his modified 2013 club calendar. He’s added helpful labels showing that nine [...]

GIF It: Branislav Ivanovic’s double balls-up (Chelsea 0-2 Swansea) Posted: 10 Jan 2013 12:35 AM PST Things are really hotting up in the Crappyteam Won Cup, the competition no self-respecting team wants to win. After Premier League side Aston Villa attempted to give League Two Bradford a bye to to the final in their semi-final first-leg on Tuesday night, last night it was the turn of European champions Chelsea to give [...]
