    World Cup Preview – Group F

    Filed under: Featured, The World Cup - Posted by: Pure Olivia

    Group F is, from the point of view of FIFA world rankings, the weakest of all of the groups, but one of the more predictable. Current holders Italy will be expected to comfortably top the group with New Zealand to be firmly routed to the bottom of the table.

    The pivotal fixture between Slovakia and Paraguay will almost certainly decide second place with most experts expecting Paraguay to prevail.

    Filed under: On The Radar - Posted by: Pure Olivia

    When Heurelho Gomes came to Spurs in June 2008, it didn’t start well. He was brought in on the back of a bad season for Paul Robinson and after a cloddish own-goal against Fulham it seemed that all Spurs had managed to achieve was swapping Coco the Clown for Bozo. After a series of match-winning [...]

“Robert hasn't touched him. The player tries to get him sent off. It's a disease that's creeping into the game.”
