Rafa gets the boot
If you haven't heard by now, Benitez has been sacked by Inter, giving rise to rumours that he'll be back in charge at Liverpool. NO! However, there are other BPL clubs without a manager, Blackburn Rovers, Newcastle (again in a few weeks me thinks), could be Chelsea as well if the rot continues.
Where or where will he go? Only time will tell. Any ideas folks?

Pardew for the Toon?
Latest rumors have put Alan Pardew in the top spot to replace Chris Houghton (who did a sterling job and is loved by all) as Manager of Newcastle.
This of course means that Newcastle could well be playing in the Championship next season. Congratulations Mike!

The farce of a Vote
Fairness and football seem to be as distant as heaven and hell. Somehow or another, money has won out in the World Cups 2018 & 2022. How Russia and Qatar got the hosting rights is one of those "infamous" decisions ever made.
Never mind that England had the best technical and economic bid, never mind that Australia and USA had great management and execution, let's just give the World Cup to one country who didn't even make the last few, and another who never did.
I thought Egypt would have been a better bet, seeing that they've won the African Nations Cup a few times, but NO, give it to Qatar. Qatar after all is a Middle Eastern country that has a population just under 1 million, with about 80% of that immigrants. So we'll have all 200,000 or so Qataris at the games for sure. First ever WC where every one of the nation, went to the games! That's some kind of record all right.
Russia, full of guns, racism, mobsters and off course that all important OIL, hasn't got a good enough league and is known to be corrupt. So this must be a great place to host a World Cup. At least all of us visitors to the WC will help the economy there getting ripped off, mugged, raped and possibly killed and dumped in Siberia.
My 1 question is this, 'When will Wikileaks forget about the USA and concentrate instead on FIFA"?
