Alan Campbell on the shockingly bizarre about face on goal-line technology.

The money man behind Spurs loses some pocket money…for him.

A look at Chelsea’s Champions league opponents Fenerbahce.

Rod Liddle on Gretna’s implosion and with a wonderful description ….”the artificial club kept afloat by a man’s ludicrous, market-distorting largesse, trampling over those whose existence is down to hard-core support”……that applies to more than Gretna.

Tony Cascarino on how to take penalty kicks. It seems to me that we are seeing more gutsy penalties – scooped down the middle or just waiting for the keeper to blink. How many of you have taken a penalty in a shoot out, how did you approach it and did you score? Or any goalkeepers with secrets?

I read this article a few weeks ago and now seems an appropriate time to post the link. Israeli researcher Ofer H. Azar compares the action bias of goalkeepers on penalties with business decisions.

Two decades after Wimbledon pulled off one of the greatest surprises in the FA Cup Final two related teams are off to Wembley.

It’s only mid-March but East Fife became the UK’s first championship winning side of the 07/08 season.  Anyone else ever been to Methil? There has been a lot of chatter about lower flight teams winning the FA Cup. East Fife is the answer to the trivia question - which is only second tier team in Scotland the win the SFA Cup?

The Sunday Times takes a trip back to the Chelsea–Leeds FA Cup Final of 1970.

The Times asks who is the most overrated player in Europe?
