Sol Campbell had no fear of being sent off against Hull

Arsenal defender Sol Campbell had no worries whatsoever that he would receive a red card after he conceded a penalty against Hull City yesterday evening.
In fact Campbell never thought it was a sending off to start with and was nothing more than a coming together between himself and Hull City’s Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink.

Shaun Wright-Phillips criticised by Manchester City manager

We’ve been here before. Ashley Cole recalled in his autobiography that he nearly swerved off the road when hearing that Arsenal were only prepared to offer him a £5,000 a week pay increase and now Shaun Wright-Phillips is apparently spitting his dummy at the fact that a deal that’s ‘only’ worth £70,000 a week is [...]

Everton V Hull Preview

Although currently tenth, the Toffees have not much left to play for in this league, with 10 points separating them from a European seat finish.

Portsmouth V Birmingham Preview

Two seasons ago Portsmouth were lifting the FA Cup, this season they are battling for their very survival and we do not mean in the Premiership but as a football club.
