I don't see why they'd publish that, it's got nothing to do with the area.

The Asian Cup draw has been made.

First time we've won four on the bounce for six years!

Unlucky Anita.

Bayern have just won the Bundesliga. It's ridiculously early - not even April yet. 8 or 9 games to go.

It's just a faze people go through Mike.

Lee Mason is the replacement referee. Mike Jones pulled out.

For what it's worth, the Russian Football Federation are meeting on Thursday to discuss allowing Crimea-based clubs FC Sevastopol and Tavriya to join the Russian Leagues.

The Guardian's Michael Cox has written 5 areas where he believes Martinez has improved Everton. http://www.freebets.org.uk/blog/5-ways-everton-have-improved-under-martinez

Ian Ross: "Drivel on the forums suggesting Myers was sacked - he wasn't. He resigned because working there was a little too much for him. Many reasons" https://twitter.com/Rossie1955/status/447483280884260864

Initally, the promotional material contained the wrong shorts (and socks?) It's been corrected since. It looks like players heads were photoshopped on for the original shot - it's the same skin behind the 'v' neck on Jagielka, Osman and Mirallas.

Would it be considered bad taste if Fred Phelps' (Westboro Baptist Church leader whose members picket funerals) funeral is picketed or a fitting send off?

Yeah, for some reason, fans in US and Canada actually prefer 'FC' to 'SC'. I think they see it as more credible/authentic. For the lack of attention it gets here, I'm fairly impressed with their 'set up', they have MLS, NASL and USL pro - three divisions of professional football spanning two nations. Although apparently the lower leagues make most of the money from charging kids to play in their academy.

Man City's MLS team have just unveiled their new crest.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/10712876/Kevin-Kilbane-pays-respect-to-David-Moyes-for-helping-him-cope-with-darkest-days.html In this article he talks about the support he had from team-mates and Moyes at Everton when he found out his daughter would have Downs Syndrome.

I bought Hotline Miami earlier, it's so addictive (and good!). It's like a top down shooter puzzle game.

Here's an interesting piece of information for you.. the poster for the book thief had to be redone after it was found that it displayed a modern Hertz van.
