Toon marching on...

By rich | April 6th, 2008

That was impressive wasnt it. We turned on the style and gave in a performance that we've been desperately lacking lately. A 3-0 demolition of Reading yesterday served two purposes. 1, It gave us a step closer to safety. I know many people think we h ...

The Reinvention of Michael Owen

By Daryl | March 31st, 2008

Impossible is not Marseillais...

By Magnusson | October 4th, 2007

"Impossible n'est pas marseillais" This is a saying people use talking about Marseille and we saw why tonight. It's too late for me to write anything but we did it. At Anfield. As I predicted, they underestimated us and thought the Tottenham game w

Make them walk alone...

By Magnusson | October 3rd, 2007

The Last time we met. During the 2003/2004 season, Marseille was having a lackluster season and our coach Alain Perrin was fired after less than ten games after having helped us qualify for the Champion's League. We didn't get very far in that competit

Weekend Game

By rich | October 1st, 2007

It seems that Newcastle cannot quite get up and running at the minute. The start has been promising however we tend to lose games when we should be getting points from them. Derby two weeks ago and Man City this weekend are definately proof of that.

My EPL Predictions

By Brian | August 2nd, 2007

Champions: Chelsea Though it pains me to say it, Mickey Mouse FC made all the right moves during the offseason. First, they boosted their backline by adding Tal Ben Haim and Alex. Though the latter seems to be stuck in work permit limbo, I'm sure it'll

The Daily Diatribe: Cops?! We don't need no stinkin' cops!, Pissed off old men, Sweet talkin' Eto'o, & Michael Owen coming back?

By Brian | April 5th, 2007
