0 comments by on 10/22/2015

I know UEFA holds their Champions League anthem in high regard because they make the players all line up before the game and play the anthem as if it’s like a national anthem. So while this is completely absurd to charge someone for expressing free speech, UEFA charging Manchester City for fans booing the UEFA […]

Theo Walcott gets his header on target and against any other goalkeeper, Arsenal would be up 1-0. But […]

There are own goals and then there are those own goals where you think how on earth could anyone possibly allow that to happen?
