Posted in Football Shirts, tagged England, English National Team, Manchester City, The Shirt Tournament of Champions on February 24, 2011 | 13 Comments »
The Shirt Tournament of Champions is our quest to figure out what the best football shirt of all time is. It may not be perfect, but we’re doing it our way, with some fun and knowledge. More information on the tournament can be found here. I like this matchup because it features an old classic [...]

My soccer shirt collection; small but mighty! Thanks to Fuse for allowing me to guest post for “Out of the Closet” this week and next. In putting this week’s collection together, my theme was “Gifts”. All the shirts featured this week are shirts that I did not have to pay for. The added bonus with [...]

Georger, Adam and yours truly hash out the confusion and baffling conclusion to the World Cup bid process that unfolded today in Zurich. Listen as we probably become members of Qatar’s Most Wanted and laugh. You can listen here or download it on iTunes.

I needed some time to process the World Cup experience from an England perspective. I think I’ve been able to do so now. The matches have been played, the race has been run, and we’ve failed once again to live up to the inevitable overblown hyperbole that comes every four years. It had appeared that [...]

I know you’re all expecting a post-mortem on yesterday’s festivities in Rustenberg, or a massive preview of today’s England-Germany clash, but I just don’t have it in me this morning. As I said last week, it really takes me some time to sort through my emotions and feelings toward a match and yesterday’s will be [...]

Happy birthday, Fuse. May your present be a trip to the top flight for Ross County and many many pints. Enjoy your day, mate. I don’t know if anyone was on tenterhooks waiting for my response to the debacle that has been England’s 2010 World Cup campaign. If you have been, congratulations, today is that [...]

I guess we all know what the main talking point from yesterday will be, now, don’t we? To sum up, Robert Green’s horrendous “effort” at (as Fuse so often likes to point out) Clinton Drew Dempsey’s fairly tame skipping ground shot was lacking, and the USA equalized. Steven Gerrard had exposed Ricardo Clark, Carlos Bocanegra [...]

There will be a time when we look back on the buildup to this USA/England World Cup match and think about how seriously we all took it, how much we hoped our various rooting interests would be fulfilled and how amazing it was to consider the match tactically and from a historical standpoint. I hope [...]

Group C. The USA. England. Algeria and Slovenia. Yeah, we’ve been talking about this one for awhile. Now it’s time to dissect it and break it down and make a prediction. Boy, I wish this group hadn’t been drawn this way.
