Scotland U16 v. England U16 (Friday) After the recent triumphant victory of Scotland’s U21 team over the Netherland’s U21 team I thought I’d go ahead and push my luck by previewing this “Victory Shield” match between Scotland and England. This tournament was first played in 1925, but it only became an annual event in 1990. [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Albion Rovers F.C. (Saturday) There was plenty of news at Ross County in the run up to this Scottish Cup match. The main news was that former Ross County youth player Alex Cooper, who was sold to Liverpool several seasons ago, has been signed by the Staggies for the remainder of [...]

United States v. France (Friday) I don’t quite know what to make of this match. Under Jurgen Klinsmann the USMNT has struggled against far less talented sides than France, so it could be that when put up against a much more talented and experienced side a lot of holes are going to become apparent in [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Partick Thistle F.C. (Saturday) Five wins in a row and another week in first place- not much to complain about if you’re a Staggies supporter! There’s good news on the horizon too- joint top-scorer Steven Craig has this match and one more before his convoluted (and unfair!) red card suspension ends. [...]

New England Revolution v. Columbus Crew (Saturday) As the Revolution’s 2011 season has circled the drain I have had to continually lower my goals for the club. Not going win the cup? At least make to the playoffs. Okay, at least show improvement. Alright, at least play hard. No? Fine, let’s make sure to get [...]

Republic of Ireland v. Andorra (Friday) This is another match with qualification implications. Ireland are currently in second place in Group B, but only one point behind first place Russia. Ireland should win this match handily (improving their goal differential) and move past the Russians into first place. To remain in first place Russia will [...]

The USSF released Jurgen Klinsmann’s roster for the USMNT’s upcoming matches against Honduras and Ecuador on Thursday and while there are no “surprises” as such, it is clear that while Klinsmann is still bringing in new players for evaluation, he has begun to focus in on a core group of players. Click through and we’ll [...]

It’s been far too long since the last time that I bored you with all of those little bits of footballing flotsam and jetsam that haven’t made it into any of my previous posts, so sit back, relax, and get ready to point out all of my mistakes. Being a supporter of one of the [...]
