Liverpool Preview

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

Expect a similar lineup that appeared last weekend at Eastlands. Danny Murphy, Simon Davies, Dickson Etuhu and Andy Johnson all remain injured.
Thankfully, Liverpool will be without Steven Gerrard, Glen Johnson, and Alberto Aquilani. Excluding Stevie G, that’s nearly 35 million pounds — 56.8 million dollars — unavailable. Fernando Torres will be given a late fitness [...]

City Away

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

I probably should have posted this in previewing today’s match against Manchester City, but it’s probably better looking at it in retrospect to the earlier result.

That is City’s transfer activity in the past three transfer windows. Of the 19 players listed, 11 played today. The total cost of those 11 players: 164.9 million pounds (which [...]

Chris Baird and the seven substitutes

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

When the Premier League went from 5 substitutes to 7 last season the switch was perceived by many as the end of the utility-player. An additional two players on the bench meant managers had more opportunities to impact the game tactically.
The rosters then were about the same size, but the lack of substitutes created a [...]

Roma in the Europa

By: timmyg | Comments 1 Comment

Fans may be weeping and gnashing their teeth over today’s result, but Fulham were 92 minutes and 5 seconds away from taking all three points and nearly punching their ticket into the next round. All without our captain, our “best” wingers (Dempsey, Davies, and Duff to a point), our prized striker, and a deputizing center [...]

Tame Tigers

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

Can any Fulham fan recall a league win as pedestrian as that? In my four years, I cannot.
Zamora and Kamara got on the score sheet in a match that should all but seal Phil Brown’s fate as Hull City’s manager. ESPN2 should have done a study where a non-footy fan watched that match and judged [...]

Sox and Tigers

Hull City
Ratio of stories about Jimmy Bullard playing versus actual minutes he plays? 10 to 1?
Thankfully the season resumes for Fulham tonight against a club that I want to like (lets The Offside use their badge; was on WSD for a bit; has America’s future, Jozy Altidore, on it) but cannot.
For all intents and [...]

Because of the international break, I won’t be blogging here probably until after next weekend.
But I will be writing randomness on my tumblr. Visit if you’re so inclined.
