With a third of the season almost in the books, we here at COS thought it was best if we let the commentariat loose to grade their mangers performance through the first 12 weeks of the Premier League season. We tend to put a grading mark on the players every week, so why not let […]

Some have gone as far as to claim that fifteen teams could be relegated from the Premier League this season, especially with West Brom, Hull and Stoke all putting up a decent fight. Clubs seem to be scrambling over each other to avoid sitting in the drop zone, with Tottenham still bottom of the table […]

With the winter staring us straight in the face and the Premier League royalty slowly rising to the top, the changes can only mean one thing: a third of the season has already come and gone!
Shocking as it might be, we’re growing ever closer to the January transfer window, and before you know it the […]

I’m sure we all expected to be laughing at this matchup at the outset of the season. Call the matchup former Premier League champions against the newly promoted minnow, the rich versus the not-so-rich, the shark versus the prey, or maybe you want to call it what it what it looked like on paper: a […]

Hull’s dream season shows no signs of letting up any time soon after they thrashed West Brom on Saturday, 3-0, to move to joint top of the Premier League. First and Premier League are probably two words Hull supporters never thought they’d see together after being promoted to the league this year.

You all know the score already, this hapless Tottenham team have delivered the worst start to a season since the Titanic went down in 1912 - pretty bloody shocking stuff. The Guardian though, has an interview with a very serious Juande Ramos who already recognizes that relegation is something that Tottenham have to face […]

Who would have thought it was possible at the beginning of the year that the Premier League season would be shaping up like this! Going into the international weekend, Tottenham sit at rock bottom in the league, winless and facing a ruthless group of supporters who were expecting success with their summer buys.
For Hull, […]

Close your eyes for a second and imagine having the opportunity to start your club roster from scratch with a loaded chequebook. You have the chance to go out and build a squad around one player that will ultimately mean the difference between your club failing or succeeding.

There may have only been seven matches played this season in the Premier League (six if you’re Manchester United or Fulham), but there are some unlikely names assembling in the bottom half dozen of the table. While Newcastle residing in the lower half of the table isn’t a great surprise this term, to see the […]
