It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Dil, ditto did the same, from memory some sort of phone app they are working on, sent out prematurely.

Well well.. It couldn't have happened to a more honest individual http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19869286

Pictured on the streets somewhere.

I see that a new national football centre has been opened....excellent news ...but if they (the trainers ) promote the long ball upfront or stupid crosses into crowded boxes all the time : they might as well have not bothered !....

You cannot be serious.. To coin a phrase http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19895260

Well if he wants to further his career he should take it :-)

Bleeding cheek -):

.. OK relax http://www.burnleyfootballclub.com/news/article/eddie-howe-101012-421714.aspx

Nah I reckon he'll opt for the better job Stan :-)

He's gone! Family reasons that are understandable http://www.burnleyfootballclub.com/news/article/howe-on-departure-121012-423529.aspx

A real shame for all that it's turned out the way it has, but that's life as we know and priorities must kick in.

How do you think we got Bellamy back ?

"Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted he is unable to prevent Craig Bellamy leaving the club for Cardiff.
Rodgers said the Welshman would be leaving for compassionate reasons."

At least it wasn't his brother's wife , Giggs should have done the decent thing and come back to his home town too.

Wonder if Bale and Ramsey are married ? :-)

Indeed Dil, that did cross my mind.. And you have just resurrected it, Thanks for the Bellamy reminder/example -):

Don't fancy Scotlands chances against Belgium tonight RF, odds are not great. First goalscorer or to score at anytime maybe worth a punt though in this order:-

Mirallas 5/1 anytime 7/5
Hazard 6/1 anytime 7/4

As far as I know Fellaini still injured.

Haven't been followings the soccer scene as much as usual lately.....but I think Belguim are improving.....I have a tiny bet on Brazil against Japan....not been getting the betting right...had a small punt on Ukraine against Moldova and would you believe they drew the game....

"not been getting the betting right".. Oh really RF -):

England game on ITV today at 3.30 onwards.

Another qualifying away point by the home country.. whilst most of the colonies do less well -): http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19985628

The very nice Mr Terry (not) has apologised http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19989136

I said, ".. whilst most of the colonies do less well -):"

Most of one of the "colonies" don't give two monkeys since the Swsansea gypo's Coleman and Hartson been appointed .... ask Bellamy or even Bale on our summer tour (injured but played for Spurs in a pre season friendly day after Welsh game).

Welsh FA do everything on the cheap ... wot's your excuse :-)
