| Harry Redknapp doesn’t want to spend money, QPR spend £35million on Christopher Samba Posted: 31 Jan 2013 05:31 AM PST He just can’t believe his luck can he? After a period of time out of the game, Harry Redknapp is back doing what he knows best, spunking millions on footballers. It has been confirmed that alongside Loic Remy (fee of £8m, contract worth £18m), QPR have today signed Christopher Samba from Anzhi. The defender will [...] |
| FAIL – Brazilian defender pulls down the goalposts Posted: 31 Jan 2013 03:00 AM PST The Youtube title on the video in Portuguese starts with “Bizarro”, and that’s just about a perfect description. Defender Fabio Ferreira should be hugely congratulated for getting back and managing to clear the ball off the line after his goalkeeper had made a save, but the player also ruined the game for everybody. That’s because [...] |
| Manchester United scarf makes Wayne Rooney look like Adolf Hitler Posted: 31 Jan 2013 02:51 AM PST Wayne Rooney might be disliked by fans of opposing teams, and there is no doubt he is an objectionable fellow, but it does seem a touch harsh of Manchester United to make the England striker look like Adolf Hitler. The similarity can be seen on a United scarf, with the shadowing effect looking like a [...] |
| Referee Kevin Friend costs punter £500,000 in Leeds v Spurs match Posted: 31 Jan 2013 02:40 AM PST Earlier in the week we brought you the above GIF of Leeds United’s Rodolph Austin, who had a shot from his own half at full time in his side’s FA Cup victory over Spurs. The shot went in, but we assumed that no-one minded too much because Leeds still won the match. Well, one unlucky [...] |
| Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini spotted on the tube Posted: 31 Jan 2013 02:30 AM PST Manchester City might have more money than continental Europe, but that did not stop manager Roberto Mancini showing that he has not lost his roots. Commuters on the Piccadilly Line last night got a lovely treat when they spotted the Italian manager on their train, which he was taking to go and watch Arsenal v [...] |
| GIF It: Carlos Puyol stops Barcelona team-mate Gerard Pique grassing up Real Madrid fans Posted: 31 Jan 2013 12:36 AM PST A decent Premier League programme meant last night’s Copa Del Rey clash between Real Madrid and Barcelona was Sky Sports’ least-hyped El Clasico in a very long time. This humorous moment from the match saw Gerard Pique attempted to complain to the referee that he’d been hit by a lighter thrown by Real Madrid fans. [...] |
| GIF It: Gareth Bale’s stunning solo goal (Norwich 1-1 Tottenham) Posted: 31 Jan 2013 12:27 AM PST Is this proof that yellow cards that are incorrectly given for diving are good for football? Gareth Bale, a man who has previously claimed that the slightest touch will always send him sprawling when he’s running at full pace, opted for the Messi approach against Norwich last night. Despite a blatant foul from the Canaries’ [...] |
| Italian police use tear gas to disperse crowd as Mario Balotelli arrives from Manchester City Posted: 30 Jan 2013 03:24 PM PST Police had to use tear gas to break-up a crowd that gathered outside a restaurant to see new signing Mario Balotelli. AC Milan fans had assembled as their new signing attempted to dine with vice-president Adriano Galliani. The pair ended up dancing in the street with ultras at one point. They were incited to join [...] |
