Week 11 has all finished and it brought some upsets I'll tell ya. It was nice to see the week finish with no red cards, and it appears the Captain's Curse (if you can call idiotic moments a curse) has been lifted for the mean time anyway.
Brendan Rodgers called a 2-2 draw with against an injury-depleted Arsenal side both “outstanding” and “brilliant”. He even said it was better than the 5-1 win over them last season! Sorry, but bollocks. You got one point, you actually lost ground on the top 4.
It was a battle between All Whites in the Premier League this weekend as Winston Reid’s West Ham hosted Chris Wood’s Leicester City… except that Chris Wood didn’t play.

All I want for Christmas is the Nix to get up over Sydney next week, I want to be able to get my shirt off and swing it around furiously, whilst abusing every Sky Blue supporter in sight
Look, I’m not gonna pretend that this result didn’t leave me giggling.

Do people still pay money to watch the Hobbit movies?
Does this smell like chloroform to you, Alexis?
Week 9 has come and gone, there was a lot of action, some cracking goals and at least one absolute knob

Is anyone else getting sick of how every news story from down under that involves Winston Reid leads with the ‘Imminent Transfer to a Champions League Team’ angle?
The Wellington Phoenix did what we hoped they would against the Newcastle Jets.
Anyone wondering why Emmanuel Adebayor’s form isn’t what it once was? Well, we seem to have an answer. Plus a bunch of other funny/weird happenings in football this week.
December has arrived and so did another great week of footy.
Despite selling half their team to Liverpool over the summer, somehow Southampton were sitting in second place coming into this weekend. That changed in a hurry when Manchester City came to town.
Tommy Smith gets to lead off Flying Kiwis this week, after his Ipswich side claimed a late, late victory over Charlton.
