Many Premier League footballers like to have a few sidelines, whether it be owning racehorses, buying a couple of restaurants or setting up a football academy. However, very few have plunged some cash into producing a ganglands movie, especially one featuring the rapper 50 Cent!

It appears that the main talking point after England’s 5-1 victory over Kazakhstan is not which players were particularly good or bad at Wembley, but more to do with whether it’s right to boo any footballer in a white shirt. The fans have often sought to make individual players a scapegoat if the team is […]

Love is in the air at Chelsea, with players committing themselves to the cause well ahead of next season. Many had thought that the offer of first-team football would have persuaded

The sports pages are brimming with gloriously over-the-top stories (is there a big match on or something?), The Sun have a headline that simply says:
“BLUNATIC”

whilst the Daily Mail bellows:

“MAD MAK: Cole injury doubt after ‘red card’ tackle by team-mate in training”

The headlines are very melodramatic, but all you have to do is look at […]

They say that what goes around comes around and this certainly appears to be the case with Chelsea. They are a team that have consistently been at loggerheads with referees throughout the season, bringing the game into disrepute on several occasions and showing no remorse after the event.

“I’d like to apologise to anyone I offended and of course Alan Hutton […]

Ashley Cole, football’s Augustus Gloop - a greedy money obsessed swine, as evidenced by his seedy meeting and illegal at the Royal Park Hotel - where Cole was tapped up and lured in with promises of mountains of dosh. Cole later compounded his greedmeister image by the passage in his autobiography listing his […]

Who’s worse - Ashley Cole for a shocking challenge on Alan Hutton and then a petulant display immediately afterwards, or Avram Grant for claiming that he didn’t see the lunge?
Channel 4 reports that Grant’s opposite number Juande Ramos certainly managed to see it, claiming that the left-back got away with being dismissed.

Ramos said: “The […]

Avram Grant certainly thinks Fabio Capello should reinstall John Terry as England captain for the friendly against France (providing the defender is selected), do you agree with the Chelsea manager? Sky Sports reports that the Israeli has been positively glowing about JT’s leadership qualities, but how can he compare them equally with Gerrard’s?
“England needs him […]
