Right, well football's back and we can finally put the Interlull behind us. Obviously there was plenty about Thierry, Ireland and France and what have you at Arsene's press conference yesterday but I think enough has been said on here about it. The only thing I will comment on is his call for technology to be used to help referees. He said : They [FIFA/UEFA] have come out with a solution with one...

Really he’s the only person who’s come out and said to the FAI, get over it, that’s the spirit. Perhaps we should ask UEFA for a replay against Liverpool when Babel went down for a penalty, or ask for the FA cup back when Henchoz handballed it when we lost to them in Cardiff. All any [...]

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...

Bixente Lizarazu is furious. Emmanuel Petit is apoplectic. Even the normally myopic Arsene Wenger saw fit to comment - more than can be said for UEFA chief Michel Platini.

Bad Thierry Henry. You cheated and you are the hero of all of France for it. Somewhere Michel Platini is dancing because you did it. Somewhere Sepp Blatter and the rest of FIFA are doing an Arsene Wegner impression. In Ireland your face will end up on dart boards and was the reason that children cried themselves to sleep last night. It's certainly not the end of the world and it's definitely not the...

Sam Allardyce returns to the Reebok Stadium this Sunday, where Blackburn Rovers will face his former club Bolton Wanderers. Big Sam enjoyed his spell as manager of Wanderers between 1999 and 2007, consistently managing to finish in a UEFA Cup spot on a shoestring budget. Allardyce will have such expectations of his Blackburn side over the coming years. Only two points separate these two Lancashire...

France 1 (1) - 1 (0) Ireland. AET. France qualify for the 2010 World Cup. I recall watching the 1986 World Cup on TV, which was a rarity at the time from the United States. I vaguely recall watching the Argentina v England quarter final match as well. However, not being an England fan, and only an 18 year old American at that, the infamous Hand of God goal by Maradona didn't resonate at the time as...
