Re: Where are you watching the final (if not at Wembley)?

Sydney, kick off is at midnight on Monday evening, with work the next day. Not decided if I head to the casino or sit at home yet. Parramatta for me, and either watching at home or down the Commercial Hotel (opposite the station, open till 4am, fairly low chances of being knifed). I'm working in Ma...

Re: FIFA

Now Platini has gone public with his side of the story, I don't see how anyone could doubt his integrity. Platini claims Blatter asked to see him before the 1998 World Cup in France and wanted the Frenchman to become Fifa president, with Blatter taking over as general secretary. "I wasn't inter...

Another golden quote from Sepp: ""I have a clean conscience," the Swiss told German magazine Bunte in an interview published on Wednesday. "Whoever calls me corrupt will have to prove it, but nobody can prove that because I am not corrupt." Blatter said he was open to critic...

Not sure whether to post this here or on the manager merry-go-round, but it's more fun at Leeds United. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/32361933 Six players have withdrawn from the Leeds squad against Charlton claiming they're injured, which has apparently come as a shock to Redfearn and the clu...

Dutch fans are going a bit crazy in Rome - vandalism and some casual rioting thrown in.

Looks like Aussies are out of luck on this one though. ESPN has sole rights but have chosen other matches.

Re: AFC Asian Cup (Australia 2015)

I more shocked that 19,000 turned out in Canberra to watch Iran vs Iraq. I'd have been happier if a few more matches weren't exclusive to Fox or shown with a ridiculous delay. 40,000 tickets sold for the final before Tuesday night, and 10,000 tickets sold in the two hours after full time. Glad I got...

Will FFP catch up with them on that one or is it just early enough for them to avoid being penalised? QPR have reportedly lost double that and have tried denying they will receive millions in fines as a result. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/queens-park-rangers-could-face-2802097 If Le...
