Those are the main ones. The Guardian is probably my favorite, you should definitely check out their podcast, too. It's about forty minutes long, twice a week, reviews England, Spain, Champions League, and every few episodes Series A/SPL/Bundesliga.

BigHouse hit my go to's. I also keep an RSS feed on the Offside. Every day they put out their 'Daily Dose' which rounds up some of the best stuff from the web.

Longer pieces

http://www.wsc.co.uk/ --- more offbeat, lots of lower league opinion pieces here

Tactics
http://www.zonalmarking.net/ --- My fave soccer site. Takes 3-4 of the biggest matches from Europe and breaks down the tactical trends. He's now contributing to the Guardian/Sky/Bet365 as well. Like there is a 1000 word piece on football stoppage in Tunisia. Not very many other places have that

http://www.worldsoccer.com/ --- I read the magazine intermittently, but don't check the site often. They focus a bit on smaller leagues, depending on where the stories are

I know I'm probably the only one here who cares about Irish football but can't wait for the cup final tomorrow, should be a cracker and hopefully it'll be double number 22 :redsmug:

Since we are comparing shirts, the new NUFC home. Still not sure what I think, but I will likely be buying one...

Anyone watching this Tottenham shit.....LMAO

[BigHouseUSA]

Chaos.

I finally remember that the Galaxy are playing tonight. 1-1 at halftime against the Red Rulls.

My brother told me to say that Swansea City finished third and thus are the best team in Wales.

He is also apparently something called a "Jack Bastard"...

Badge of honour apparently.

I left a comment under the story. Its the first thing i did this morning!

Also watched the Galaxy and Red Bulls game last night. It was very entertaining. Henry did some stupid sick silks shit. He picked up the ball at mid field, and then he proceeded to sprint while juggling the ball till he got to the 18 yard box. 2 things. 1. Hes old now, so that was nice to see. 2. Its the MLS and that stuff never happens. Otherwise competitive very open game. Too bad more people didnt see it, it could have been a good showpiece for MLS.
