Berba Breaks Duck In Denmark

Aalborg 0 – 3 Man Utd
Berbatov finally got his first goals for Man United in a game against a fiesty yet poor in quality team.  Really United should of won much more than 3 nil.
Rooney got United on their way with an excellent pass from Giggs.  Good thing to come out of the game is [...]

What is going Wrong at the Lane?

 
Is Ramos’ safe – I remember this time last year I was speculating on when Spurs would get rid of Martin Jol.  I actually have to ask myself why do I even show interest in this club – when there are all sorts of fun and games happening at St James’ Park.  Maybe its the [...]

No Bailout for US Banks

Looks like there will be no light at the end of this financial crisis tunnel as the US House of Representatives throws out Bush’s $700billion bailout package for Banks.  The big question is now where do we go from here?

PES 2009 Demo Coming Out Oct 2nd

Yes boys and girls that is the date for where we can all try out this year’s version of PES – I’m looking forward to it as always but I’m really not expecting an amazing improvement.  I really hope Konami goes back to its roots of making an intelligent easy to play hard to master [...]

Suspect Penalty Sends UTD on Their Way

 
 
 
 
 
 
Man Utd 2 – 0 Bolton
After dominating the game, United needed to be awarded a suspect penalty before the Reds could get off the mark against a resolute Bolton.  Fergie did the brave and correct thing by leaving Rooney on the bench and by the time he called him into action Wayne was raring to [...]

Recommended Movie: Moliere

Every so often I will recommend a movie that I’ve seen that I highly enjoy.  Last night I was pleasantly surprised by what people are calling the French version of Shakespeare in Love – but for me Shakespeare in Love did not make an impression on me like this movie did.
Moliere is about the famous [...]

HT New Suit Dark Knight On its Way

HT has tweaked the cowl and shortened the cape and look at this masterpiece – can’t wait for its arrival it truly looks amazing.

Share of the Spoils

Chelsea 1 – 1 Man Utd
After a quite downbeat week for United after the Merseyside defeat last weekend there were calls from Old Trafford for a reaction at the Bridge.  And for the first 20 minutes this was on view as United looked the more fluid team.  After a few good chances where United could [...]

Bartoli La sonnambula

New recording of Bellini’s La sonnambula featuring my favourite Mezzo Bartoli will be released next month.  This is the first time a mezzo plays the lead role in this opera and it is meant to be the most complete.  Can’t wait – will this really compete.  Although not direct competition, but will this really beat [...]

Go Stoke!!!

After beating United last week – Liverpool has gone one step forward and after today’s 0-0 home draw against Stoke sends them two steps back.
Still this is early days – however except the performance against United last weekend, Liverpools’ other performances has required either Torres or more so Gerrard to save em.  Lets see how [...]

Fifa 2009 is a load of Bull…

Downloaded the demo last night on my PC expecting a vast improvement on last year’s iteration and thought maybe this is a serious challenge to PES….how wrong am I for another year.  For a start the ball is massive – not quite on the table football or subutteo proportions but its pretty bad.  If that [...]

Real Face of Mozart?

A new portrait of Mozart has been discovered which certainly gives us a little insight into what the great man may have looked like – said to have been painted within the last 10 years of his life this painting has been authenticated and a significant find.

Financial Collapse

The news is bad – the climate is gloomy.  What is going to happen next? Who is going to be the next victim? After Lehman and Merril and then AIG and HBOS where the heck do we run too to hide?
I never thought I’d see a meltdown in the Banking sector like I’m seeing this [...]

Merrill Gets Swallowed Up as Lehman Collapses

As the news of Lehman Brother’s collapses – news came through early Monday morning that Bank of America had brought Merrill Lynch for $50Billion – looks like we’re entering a new era on the world markets.

Lehman Brothers on the Brink

After a loss of 80% of its value last week the US Bank is desperately trying to workout a survival package and its very likely it will end up no longer an independent bank or even broken up into pieces.  The doom and gloom on the financial markets continue…

Liverpool Triumph over sorry United

Liverpool 2 – 1 Man Utd
After 3 minutes it looked like United was going to have a dream afternoon as Tevez shot United into the lead.  What followed what United fans do not want to witness again this season.  The complete lack of desire to fight and win the ball.  Van Der Sar had a [...]

Croatia crushed

Croatia 4 – 1 England
Rooney played a vital role in a crushing defeat of Croatia.  Youngster Walcott gave a mature display and took his hat trick like he had been international football for years.
I still think England has so much young talent that Fabio should utilise more.  Joe Cole against Andorra and tonight Walcott and [...]

The Feds Returns

After what I must admit was an impressive win over Nadal – Our Scottish friend Murray faced what I percieve as the best player ever in Roger Federer.  This was the best I have seen Murray play – but he met with Federer at the top of his game.  There was no getting past him [...]

PES 2009 on its Way

Its that time of year again – where the footie season starts, England still looking unconvincing on the pitch and EA and Konami are yet again lock horns again for another year to battle it out for Soccer dominance.
Do we expect anything different from previous years? Certainly I’m not expecting anything revolutionary – PES has [...]

Fergie Gets His Man

After a somewhat tense standoff with Spurs – Fergie finally ended up with the star striker he had apparently been pursuing for so long.
Berbatov will be a great addition to the team and will certainly enhance the United attack immensely.  Bring on Liverpool!
