I suppose it was inevitable. The guy is a media whore so it was only a matter of time before he took to Twitter to undermine his new manager and breed disaffection in the dressing room. But Fernandes has done it with knobs on! Venting after the Nightmare on Ewood Park Street, the poisoned dwarf raged, ““The…

How did we get relegated last season?

Ok there was Grant! And Upson couldn’t be arsed. And neither could Bridge. And we had Spector. And Tomkins was up and down. And we had to pick Gabbidon. And Cole couldn’t hit a barn door from five paces for much of the season. And Hitz was out until January. And Green’s confidence …

Parker booking a warning for England

For all his excellent reviews, question marks still hang over Scott Parker. Tottenham fans are raving about the man they never really wanted, just like they are raving over a manager they were loath to see appointed, but yesterday’s booking showed why the former “Mr West Ham” may do to England’s European Championship chances what Green did …

QPR Supporters Resigned to the Drop

After all the early Fernandes inspired bravado, it seems that reality has bitten QPR fans on the arse – and like cocky cockers face to face with a teeth baring rottweiler, the gRs have lost their growl. To be fair, it’s hardly surprising. There was a tremor of excitement in the Bush…

Cardiff Defeat & Blackpool’s Draw Outweighs Southampton Victory

It’s unfortunate that Southampton have pulled up on to our shoulder, but Cardiff’s defeat at Leicester and Blackpool’s home draw with struggling Portsmouth more than made up for that. Two teams go up, and if Southampton are one of them, that’s fine by me. I went to university in Southampton and have a soft spot for them. Mind you, it was galling…
