What an, um, exciting transfer month! Meh. Well actually, I suppose it wasn’t that bad. The last day of January surprised me and a few million people, with inter-country trades and transfers hitting fever pitch in the last few hours of the day. Here’s a rundown.
Frédéric Piquionne, slave, was transferred to le Rocher, meaning Monaco. [...]

I’m sure every single one have read, or have been read by someone else the epic novel that is The Little Engine That Could. You know the plot consists of a train who against all odds to overcome one big mountain. Olympique de Marseille staged an impromptu reenactment of the well-known children’s story this Wednesday, [...]

I certainly hope this is the last post i write about that mysterious Gooch. Sadly, it’s not to officially pass the word that he put pen to paper with Olympique de Marseille. Rather, he “said” (wouldn’t you know it, nothing official) he opted for Newcastle United, who I like to think of as the PSG [...]

All of two days and a few hours to go in the transfer window, and have I got news for you! The Brazilian takeover of Lyon is still in full flight, as the rhodanien club showed off their newest recruit, Cruzeiro Belo Horizonte’s midfielder Fabio Dos Santos Barbosa (His shirt will read “Fabio Santos”).

We’ve gotten a bit further in the Oguchi Onyewu story, however nothing has been confirmed by any club. The solid Yank defender, who is still being scouted by Chelsea, Real Madrid and apparently Marseille to a further degree, had been announced to sport a OM shirt in coming days from a few less-than-official website. Olympien [...]

I’m running out of oh-so-slick titles to suggest that Lyon’s current winless streak is completely unexpected, thought-provoking and very funny. So yeah, this time, it was 19th-place OGC Nice that stole points from the leader. You really wonder how they manage to do that, when you’re starting a string of fellows named Coupet, Cris, Reveillère, [...]

To start things off, I’d like to say that I hate what I’m writing about. Fabulous, another fat rich guy in charge of UEFA, liberty will rain onto the deserving heads of small children everywhere. Lyon goes for the stock market, fantastic, their human and moral development goes up real good. Karma for everyone! Come [...]
Transfer Time: The mystery that is Oguchi Onyewu
By: Sam | 1 Comment
Today, Bob wrote in his daily transfer article about American defender Oguchi “Gooch” Onyewu’s certain transfer to Marseille, according to one site. If that’s the case, that’s just great!
But when I browsed my usual sites to find out further, nothing came up regarding the Standard de Liège man. Hmmm… I smell unfounded rumours…
But this is [...]
Plane tickets from Glasgow to Paris are selling like hotcakes

Because when Paul Le Guen bails out of a coaching job with Rangers, which he never seemed comfortable doing in the first place, and heads back to see if he can lift Paris Saint-Germain out of the dirt, young and healthy Jeremy Clément bails out of his midfielding job with Rangers, which he never seemed [...]
Matchday 21 - Pigs fly, Pope converts, Lyon loses two in a row
By: Sam | No Comments
Which of the above three statements is the most credible? I don’t know for sure, but if you asked me a month ago, it’d been hard to say. No disrespect to ol’ Ben’s faith, but only the brave, the silly and the psychic would have picked Olympique Lyonnais to go winless in three straight matches, [...]
