  • What About the MLS?

    After Eddie Johnson’s $3 million move to Fulham this week, I got to wondering.  Where does the MLS go from here, and more importantly, how do they hold onto their biggest stars?  Regrettably, the answer is not simple, but I do believe it is possible for the MLS to actually […]

  • Fulham Snatches up Another American

    Fulham have added their 5th American player to their roster in the form of Eddie Johnson.  While I was instructed to keep it very hush-hush, I am now allowed (because it has been reported on the Fulham FC website) to talk about everything that the club is willing to disclose. […]

  • Does Fulham Have What It Takes?

    After what can only be described as a lackluster display against Arsenal, does Fulham have what it takes to fight their way out of the relegation zone and survive for another year in the Premiership? Most importantly, Fulham needs more productivity out of their attack.  They will get a huge […]

  • Newcastle, Team Captains, and Fulham

    Big things happening around these parts.  First things first though.  Newcastle has signed Kevin Keegan to what is roughly a three-year contract.  Many people are dubbing this the “second coming”, which seems a little overdone, but I suppose that when you’re supporting the only major club of a major English […]

  • Who has the Power?

    Recently Inter Milan announced it had agreed to a 10-year sponsorship deal with Nike. Hours after the announcement rumors began to swirl that Barcelona’s Ronaldinho would be leaving Spain and heading east to Italy. While the midfielder’s place at the Nou Camp has been unsteady for most of the season […]

  • Go On Ya’ Blues!

    Go On Ya’ Blues!

    After lunch spent in a pub that was for Chelsea fans only (yes there was a bloke standing at the door turning Tottenham supporters away), learning a few Chelsea chants, a little bit of haggling, and a cheery fellow directing us to our seats with his battle cry “GO ON […]

  • The Toon Army Loses Another General

    The Toon Army Loses Another General

    Greetings from London. Being that this is my first blog, I thought I would take a minute to introduce myself.  My name is John Conner.  I am currently a Junior at the University of Missouri, and I am studying abroad in London this semester.  I am an avid soccer fan […]

  • Liverpool: The League Afterthought

    Is there a more frustrating English side than Liverpool? Armed with some of the most ardent supporters around, the club seems only able to tread water in the English Premier League, and now it has fallen out of top four spots. It is one-point behind Manchester City, although with a […]

  • Expand the Transfer Window

    Ah, the January transfer window. After the summer open session, there isn’t a better time for rumor flinging and second-hand gossip spreading like wild fire to make its way across tabloids and Web sites across the globe. For a fan, anything is possible for their club. Need a striker? Get […]
