The Goal! Film Has Done More For Newcastle This January Than Owner Mike Ashley

There was something we overlooked, fellow Newcastle United supporters. While we were busy putting all our eggs in the Amanda Staveley basket, we failed to realize that we are now entering a halcyon phase in our club’s history without the help of a petroleum-infused war chest.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic Reportedly On The Verge Of Joining LA Galaxy

Imagining A 2017-18 North vs. South EPL All-Star Game, Er, Match

All-Star gaaaames. There’s nothing more exciting than watching the NBA’s West beat the East 192 to 182 while the 6-10 Anthony Davis scores 52 points off 39 shots, and there’s nothing more sporting than watching Canadian journeyman Will Johnson crunch Bastian Schweinsteiger on the ankle after the German graciously appears following a grueling summer spent winning the World Cup.
