GIF It – Xerez’s Ernesto Galan with golazo own goal Posted: 26 Feb 2013 03:27 AM PST If this goal was scored by a striker in the correct end, I would put in a personal application to marry it. As it is, I’d still do all sorts of unbiblical things to it. The man in question is Xerez defender Ernesto Galan, who managed to score the ‘winner’ for Sabadell this weekend in [...]

Wesley Sneijder scores his first golazo for Galatasaray Posted: 26 Feb 2013 03:24 AM PST Wesley Sneijder’s move to Galatasaray has been largely viewed as little more of a financial exercise, given that the midfielder was clearlly wanting a move to alternative destinations but no other offers came in. However, now he has arrived in Istanbul he may as well get on with things, and ingratiated himself rather nicely to [...]

A couple of weeks ago we brought you news of Fernando Torres’s baking efforts, and this week it is the turn of [...]

Newspaper El Confidencial claims Guardiola hired Método 3 to see what his players were up to away from the club. Among the firm’s targets was Gerard Pique, who came under surveillance after [...]

Clint Hill is the victim of a character spacing disaster in the QPR programme Posted: 26 Feb 2013 12:59 AM PST OTP dares say that QPR fans have called their defenders a fair few names this season. But the abuse being levelled at Clint Hill by the club programme is a bit harsh. Somebody at Loftus Road needed to pay a bit more attention to the character spacing before sending their match programme to the printers [...]

GIF It: Gareth Bale’s stunning 89th minute winner (West Ham 2-3 Tottenham) Posted: 26 Feb 2013 12:43 AM PST Last night saw one of those great rarities: a Monday Night Football match that was actually pretty good. And one of those not-so-rarities: a Gareth Bale winner. The Spurs star scored an absolute beauty to give his side a 2-3 victory in a match they had been losing 2-1. And some goal it was, too. [...]
