Saddest Black Monday I can remember. The game will be poorer without the legend

This is some shameful sh!t here Lamb of BOD, does Justin Beiber Purpose not even get an honourable mention?

Rats, in my deliberations as to how high I could put him - or, indeed, if I needed to create another category for him alone - I neglected to put him in there at all. Silly me

Excellent performance yesterday, not to mention the result. The workrate, pressing etc has improved beyond belief already. Credit where it's due - Klopp is having the desired impact

Just picked up tickets to the Boston College - Georgia Tech game. Anyone else going?

Blk 115 row T seats 1-5

The Giants are one frustrating team to follow. 7 down heading into the 4th quarter, they turn it around to be 7 up with about 3 mins on the clock. Not exactly home and hosed but a nice position to be in. We concede the TD but grand just need to close it out and go into OT with possession and about ...

6 weeks in and it's another interesting NFL season. It appears there are a couple of really good teams, a handful of atrocious teams, with the rest of them somewhere in the middle. At this stage, it's looking for all the world like a New England vs Green bay Superbowl - but there's a lot of football...

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000550401/article/miami-dolphins-fire-coach-joe-philbin On the one hand, this is no great surprise - despite many pundits tipping the 'Fins to win (or at least challenge for) the AFC East this season, they've looked dreadful. On the other, leaving Bill Laser to ...

I find that very strange timing, really should have got rid of him during the summer. International break. No game til the 17th. Looks like its Klopp BTW. I meant why back him at all if they were only going to give him until the start of October? I reckon they planned on letting him start the seaso...

Spot on.

Would be delighted with Klopp

Interesting. Thanks.
There have been so many rumours doing the rounds that you'd be inclined to believe them. Talksport had a shortlist of 7 - but only 3 of them seemed credible to me. Mourinho will be available soon

The way I'm hearing it, we'll have one regardless.

Care to elaborate?

Poor enough showing again tonight, although I suspect BR doesn't care too much about the Europa League. Hardly looked like scoring. No creativity going forward. Hoping they'll put it right against Everton on Sunday

As we approach tonight's huge clash at MetLife - which kicks off week 3 - a big shout-out to macklexv and dbreathnach who are blazing a trail in our fantasy league. those two teams are well out in front, leaving the rest of us with a lot of ground to make up, even at this early stage. A bit like the...

Don't forget that Brodgers was only given a net of about 10 mill to spend this summer. I think that was a case of the owners waiting to see how the season started and holding their pennies for the next manager. 1-1 at home to Carlisle tonight after 90 mins with a pretty close to full strength team w...

Thanks, Kevin, for all the excellent performances you put in for Leinster and Ireland. It's such a shame to have to retire so young, but no sport/job is worth your health. Wish you the best of luck with what comes next

On a recent Guardian Football podcast, Barry Glendenning referenced a good source of his at Anfield who said that Brodgers had been told (before the Man Utd game) that he had to take 7 points from the next three or he would be getting his pink slip. This horror-show draw at home to newly-promoted No...

In a group with Scotland, Samoa and USA it's hard to see them not topping the pool - even after last night's shocking result

The Samoa - USA game is shaping up into a decent contest (42 mins gone as I write). Clancy is, of course, doing his best to ruin it. The man has no feel for a game at all; it's just whistle, whistle, whistle

That Seahawks - Rams game was a belter. Kansas looked comfortable, as did the Jets. Miami recovered from a dodgy start to remain mostly untroubled. Luck throwing INTs again. Bills D looks great. The Bears hung around for a lot longer than expected; Cutler played with a degree of self control. Aaron ...
