England are about to kick off their World Cup campaign against the Yanks,

There are 32 teams left in the competition, five all-Premiership ties mean there will be a host of lower league clubs looking for a financially rewarding cup run. 

If there’s one thing that could be said for the good old days, it’s that a footballer would never be able to share his true feelings with thousands of people. Or stupid enough.

When it comes to football, the old adage ‘you make your own luck’ is fairly redundant.

Robinho, the 26 year-old Brazilian misfit, finally ended his nightmare spell at Eastlands on transfer deadline day as he left for Milan for an undisclosed fee thought to be in the region of £22m.

Back in the summer of 2008, things were looking good for Conference National side Ebbsfleet United. February saw a revolutionary takeover by the internet group MyFootballClub.co.uk (MyFC) – a move that staved off the potential of administration.

With a long wait before our next game, we must now endure a week of speculation about comings and goings (surely Ricardo Fuller, a sub more often than he starts at Stoke, is not really demanding £60,000 a week as reported today; what will Mr Bent make of that?).

A weekend of hat-tricks as Arsenal and Manchester United have comfortable wins whilst title chasing Manchester City fail to deliver as new signing Darren Bent opens his Villa account.
