Strategy has been a kay part of Grand Prix racing from it's inception, it's certainly not a modern concept.

I think he stated it categorically after one of the games against Utd. If for some reason JM doesn't go back I'm sure Rafa could be made to reconsider, though. He won't get as big a job elsewhere in...

Seeing as back then only the various league champions qualified, it happened quite a lot. Liverpool in 1978/9 (Forrest were Champions) and 81/82 (Villa were Champions). Forrest in 1980/81 (Liverpool...

Spurs recent PL record:

2010 - 70pts

2012 - 69 pts
2013 - 69/72 pts

They've been consistently challenging for 4th without improving. I'm not sure why they would suddenly be better...

Very pleased for Rafa, and Torres for that matter - he looked 2-3 years younger last night. It's always nice to see ex-players or managers doing well when it's not at our expense.

Arsenal need 2 pts more over Chelsea, improve their GD by 1 and improve their goals scored by 2 more than Chelsea. Therefore Chelsea need to draw and Arsenal need to win by a goal and score 2 more...

The PL, of course. It's only the start, I tell you. If it went down well they'll be proposing an 'end of season' play off format for the title next!
