I get to release my "inner Brit" in this blog and dream of the day that I'll actually be attending games, in the stands at Old Trafford and other clubs throughout Europe. See, I'm actually British at heart, it's just that I was born on the wrong side of the pond...Wendy Wellshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614420945054931645noreply@blogger.comBlogger71100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3138140259806086015.post-68402424953484302842009-08-07T15:03:00.000-04:002009-09-04T15:06:39.483-04:00

I almost missed the fact that Manchester United and Chelsea are playing one another in the Community Shield this Sunday! See, sometimes I get caught up in going to the same websites over and over again, and I'll neglect to check in with the obvious…Manchester United's own site. I'll often check the satellite internet news feeds and the television station websites but if I let more than a couple

Looking for my "Footie" soccer news I saw something that surprised me. It was on the website for Barclays Premier League. The headline read," Arshavin Expecting Tough Start." What? I thought? The Gunners lacking in confidence? The subheading said that some are questioning whether or not they'll maintain champions league status this season. As I read on, I realized it's not the team wondering if

So Michael Owen has been handed number seven. I'm sorry, I have to write that again to really comprehend this, Michael Owen has been handed number seven. I had a hard time getting that down the second time around.I love Michael Owen. We all know I've been a huge supporter of his and I will continue to be so long as he doesn't let me down. But number seven? Wow…Sir Alex is either expecting

Well, last blog I'd mentioned that I didn't know yet what Vidic's ban was going to be after his red card and send off from the Liverpool game. Here it is, it's ugly and it actually sounds worse than it is but it's pretty bad when you get to the bottom of my blog. The Football Association's official statement on their website confirms that Vidic is "suspended from all football until the Club have

Cristiano Ronaldo has become THE FIRST Premier League player to be announced the FIFA World Player of the Year!This has GOT to shut up some of the bashers of his talent but of course, it won't. There are too many critics that are willing to tear down an individual based on the fact that they are good looking, young and the focus of a great deal of attention. This is a well-deserved and

Manchester United Wins World Cup December 22, 2008,Wendy Wells – Charlotte, NCwwells@wendywellswrites.comWhen it comes to my favorite football team (what we Americans usually call soccer), I'll admit I'm a bit…passionate. But you have to understand: Manchester United has had a slight hiccup in the Barclay's Premiership League this past season. This blip in their sturdy record of victories has led

It's in praise of our amazing keeper, Edwin Van der Sar.Aston Villa vs. Manchester United - November 22, 2008How about that lovely save and keep that our AMAZING Edwin performed during this particular game?
