Reading manager Brendan Rodgers watched his side claim their first home win since January, as the Royals beat Blackpool 2-1, and then proclaimed that the feeling was like "winning the World Cup". While Rodgers may have to stretch his imagination to empathise with those who have reached football's pinnacle, that the Royals had not tasted success at the Madejski Stadium since 27 January –...

You may want to put down your owls before reading this post.... As you've probably figured out, I'm the third and final weekend editor to make a debut post here on BCB. You may know me from my many comments and parenthetical remarks. My weekend mugs are tea, preferably lychee-flavored, to keep me awake while I finish this post full o' links. The Arizona Fall League season is over and the Peoria Javelinas...

First : Stop reading here (but come back after!) and check out my late-breaking Teblog guest-post over at Yahoo's Dr. Saturday college football blog, about the most important context for today's Florida game: Life AFTER Tebow . (Believe it or not, Florida's annual cupcake game in mid-November has been marked by really notable events: Tebow's breakout in 2006, Tebow going "20/20" in 2007 and...

Like most people I have a set of tabs that open in Firefox when I log on and the first one I generally look at is the Guardian Football homepage . Finally it seems that the stories on "that handball" are either reducing in numbers or, at the very least, disappearing slowly down the page. One of the truly annoying things about the blogs and comment pages is that certain people seem to think...

So this is what it comes down to after: hundreds of games, tears, fears, and anger. Boredom, crappy internet feeds, reading thousands of blog posts, pictures, drama in the stands, cheering, cursing, giving the one finger salutes, yelling at homer announcers, and listening to podcasts; you’re head is full of MLS, and that’s just fine because Sunday we’ve got the final, and then you...

I'm reading a book about soccer at the moment (more another time). En passant I've noticed one or two little known soccer facts. #1 Did you know that Ryan Giggs dad is a black man? Danny Wilson, a Welsh man with West African (?) roots, was a rugby league player. It's also worth noting that Giggs has played in every Premier League season so far, scoring at least once in each season but fior the present...

Having had a break from domestic fixtures, we have all been focused on international football and I think now is a good opportunity to reflect on the way things are going for England. I have to say that Fabio Capello has done an amazing job as England coach. The Italian seems to have instilled confidence into every player who has played for him. Yet there is also the fear factor that you don't want...

Now that we know the teams that will be making it to South Africa for the World Cup finals, i think its time we all took the bold step of picking our favorites to win the tournament. I know many of you might say that the right time to do this will be after the group stage draw that will happen in about two weeks time on the 4th of December. Read more...

I don't know squat about soccer, but I see that my beloved France is in a tizzy this morning about a hand ball. I won't even attempt a complete rundown of the lamentations, since this seems to be the biggest event in French history since Sarko took Carla to Disneyland. A few choice samples will suffice. Dany the Red : " La main de Thierry Henry, c'est le summum de la chance ." The minister...

• Le Monde: 'Les Bleus relieved, Irish disgusted' • Lizarazu: 'We go to the locker-room with our heads bowed' There was plenty of sympathy for the Republic of Ireland in the French media this morning after the controversial extra-time goal that denied them a place in next summer's World Cup finals in South Africa. The national sports newspaper L'Equipe ran the headline "Hand of God"...

Originally published at tansyrr.com . You can comment here or there . 32403 / 50000 I’m catching up on the Alan Davies “It’s Up For Grabs Now” football podcast, which is awesome (especially the Alan Davies impersonation of Arsene Wenger – priceless) but sadly this is last week’s episode and features Alan’s list of the 6 players we need to stay fit all season...

STARTERS On Thursday Toronto FC is expected to name Preki as their new head coach. dN Incredible quote from Real Salt Lake head coach Jason Kreis on his teams tough regular season: "I was very overconfident. I think I added to what was a little bit of an underlying thing on the team that we were a bit overconfident going into this season. We had been reading a bit too much about how we would compete...

Dartblog's post the other day about Football Coach Buddy Teevens '79 has elicited multiple expressions of heart-felt support, including the following two missives from parents of players. They quite rightly put emphasis on Buddy's human and pedagogical qualities, which I insufficiently noted on Monday. From: Bob Patek E:mail: Hi Joe- I enjoyed reading your article on Coach Buddy Teevens. Our son,...
