Injury Update + The Best Picture of the Season

By: Martha | Comments No Comments

I admit it, I’m making a post almost entirely to share this picture (Click, and the grinning gets even bigger!) — imagine being a young, nervous kid trying to survive at Monaco with the two of them around. I bet some of the young players from that team still have nightmares about the mocking, harassment, [...]

Nice 2-2 Bordeaux

By: Martha | Comments 4 Comments

Where am I? Who are you people?
After the first 30 minutes or so of Saturday’s match, you’d never, ever have been able to convince me that Nice would get a point. Not a million years. As everyone who gave voice to the obvious after the match (Antonetti and Cyril #1 among them) said, they gave [...]

Midweek, Pre-Derby News

By: Martha | Comments 2 Comments

[Quansah jubilating, as Getty would say.]
•Ben Saada played 10 minutes of Tunisia’s 1-3 friendly loss to France yesterday. Friendly or not, it was a big match for him personally, since he’s French-born and won a U-17 title in a France shirt before choosing Tunisia as his senior side. (Based on his grinny, pre-match interview, though, [...]

That Sucked, and This Won’t Help

By: Martha | Comments 3 Comments

I’m traveling and working and won’t be able to get a report up until Tuesday (which is probably just as well, since if I wrote it now, you’d get a long piece comparing Italian and French referees, mixed with a lot of mooning over Cyril #1 and being sent off on principle), but until then [...]

Is it Saturday Yet?

By: Martha | Comments 3 Comments

Cyril #1 and his arms: Both happy to be back.
Apologies for the lack of posts, but there’s nothing freaking going on, apart from the official site failing to keep up with the schedule they made for ogcnice.tv. The one change there is that we can now pay €50 for access to the site for the [...]

Heading Out Old Qatar Way

By: Martha | Comments 5 Comments

As promised, Joseph-Desire Job is headed to Qatar: He’s been sold to Al Kharaitiyat, a club whose official website has been suspended, apparently for failure to pay hosting costs. I hope that’s not a sign of how good they are about paying salaries. Even more strangely, the team doesn’t appear in FIFA’s table of the [...]
