Newcastle's Carabao Fairytale, Liverpool Didn't Want...

No Nonsense ·

2025/03/18

The 70 year "curse" has been lifted as Newcastle finally win a domestic trophy. And all it took was the wealthiest owners in sports history. Eddie Howe's team looked much more up for it as they cruised to victory in the Carabao Cup final over an increasingly tired looking Liverpool team who just a few short weeks ago were on course for the illusive quad. A big week for Big Dan Burn as he is the unlikely hero in the final and gets an England call up. Elsewhere in the news, Sir Jim Ratcliffe an...

Never has a game so big meant so little as Arsenal and Man United played out a 1-1 draw, that while entertaining, was another example of the season being totally finished. Man United didn't look half bad on the pitch but its still clear to see the pressure is just too much for this current crop. Off the pitch Sir Jim Ratcliffe reminded us all just how bad it is financially as he broke down who and when they owed in detail. Arteta stormed off after some pointed questions about the title race, ...

No Nonsense ·

2025/03/04

While the excitement of this years Premier League may be dwindling the magic of the cup is still in full effect. But, this weekend it felt the magic was darker than ever. A horrendous high boot on Crystal Palace's Mateta was the most obvious red card in the history of football to everyone watching, except of course to the man in charge of handing out the cards Michael Oliver. A crash out of epic proportions saw Brazil star Matheus Cunha sent off in the 120th minute, leading to Wolves being kn...

2025/02/25

And just like that it's pretty much all over! Liverpool extended their lead to 11 points against former rivals Man City as Salah continues to be head and shoulders above everyone else in the league. Arsenal dropped more points, this time to West Ham. And it's all starting to feel a bit end of days-y for Mikel Arteta as they seem set for another year in second place. Man United manage to rescue a late draw against relegation rivals Everton as the man who started it all David Moyes returned to ...

No Nonsense ·

2025/02/18

A battle of the men who will not change was the most newsworthy game of the round as Tottenham beat Man United in a genuine relegation 6 pointer. Surely Man United won't slip...right? Even without Amad Diallo and a host of others? The tinfoil hats are off and our third eyes are wide open as we witnessed Liverpool be gifted two very fortunate decisions from the refereeing powers that be as they got away with kicking a ball away while on a yellow and a blatant dive. Elsewhere, the Man City sea-...

2025/02/12

The magic of the cup cast it's spell over the football pyramid over the weekend, but we can't help but feel like its powers are dwindling by the day. Just as whispers began of a potential QUAD Liverpool were eliminated by bottom of the Championship Plymouth Argyle. But with a B-team fielded, do Liverpool even care? Does it matter for Plymouth? Can Will even name 8 more Championship teams? Ange Postecoglu held his head in his hands and tried to work out how he was going to word the same answ...

No Nonsense ·

2025/02/04

As the 5th goal went in against Man City, you'd be forgiven for thinking maybe Arsenal had taken some of Haalands criticism to heart the last time they played. A 5-1 win for Arteta's Arsenal over Pep Guardiola's City, while maybe not a title winning game, felt like a big moment for Arsenal as they exorcised some past demons. Nottingham Forest are still in this as they hammer Brighton 7-0, with yet another Chris Wood hat trick. Ruben Amorim is never going to change and that's that, ok? W...

Rumours of a potential 7-0 turned out to be greatly exaggerated as Man United managed to get their act together and give Liverpool a real game under conditions that probably should have had the game called off.After a 2-2 draw we try and work out what exactly made this game so different to the routine Liverpool hammerings in Anfield that United have faced over the last few seasons, and how much of it came down to Trent Alexander Arnold being shook up by a very disrespectful transfer offer ove...

And so, the sun sets on another international campaign. Ireland had some highs and some REAL lows.To see us out, Ireland were beaten 5-0 by colonial rivals England in Wembley after 20 minutes of madness which manager Heimir Halgrimsson described as 'giving up'. But for 45 glorious minutes we were right in that game!We were right in that game until of course the VAR team bottled what looked like a stonewall penalty on Evan Ferguson.
