Crushed

Well, that was bad. North Korea abandoned their defensive ideology and were thrashed like silly school boys. Had they played for a draw, the Portuguese floodgates may have been kept shut, and maybe Ronaldo and his pals would have surrendered to an English style manque. Then again, maybe not.
We can only imagine how the PRK might have fared in a weaker group. It was a treat to follow them through the qualifying to the Finals. Now they play for pride and the role of spoiler in the final game of the Group of Death. It may be another forty-four years before the Communist star of the PRK flies at the World Cup – or maybe North Korea will be retired to the museum by then.

For Love Or Football
"Footballer asked to give up honeymoon for new club." Admit it - first thoughts center around the wife and a reaction worthy of any reality shows in which a new bride or bride-to-be seem like a good candidate for a rubber room and a key which gets mysteriously lost for...ever. Tim Ream ...
Bayern Munich Signs The Common Man

Fly, Fly Away With Diego
When Al Wasl paid a hefty sum of money to Diego Maradona to lead their team, they did so not with the idea of getting the next great football coach, but with the idea that he'd be part coach, part entertainer, occasionally part circus clown. He rarely disappoints, if he ...
Spicing Up The Official Club Page
When you're a Brazilian club of the third division and you're starved for hits on your website, there are only two possible options: i. Hire a spammer. ii. Porn.
