Czech striker Josef Sural has died following a crash involving the minibus taking Alanyaspor players home after their Turkish league game.
Former Spurs defender Steven Caulker was injured, along with ex-Newcastle striker Papis Cisse.
Initial reports from Turkey are that the driver of the minibus...
Former Newcastle midfielder Cheick Tiote has died today, at the age of 30, following a heart attack at the training ground of Bejing Enterprises.
Probably best remembered for his thunder-bastard of a goal against Arsenal.
RIP
The video makes it look even more ridiculous!!

3 year contract, starts in January.
Would imagine he will have a relatively easy ride for at least first season considering his links/history with Man City.
At the spritely age of 49 years old, Teddy Sheringham has come out of retirement and registered himself as a Stevenage player... His assistant, Kevin Watson, has also registered at the age of 41.
It's an old folk's home up there at the moment.
Dave Beasant was on the bench last season at the...
Personally I think it's not a bad price/deal and if I could convince the Mrs, I'd be well up for doing it:

Lots of rumours floating around today that a last minute tweak to the PL rules and regulations has been made, handing out a 3 match suspension to any player found guilty of diving.
Like I say, lots of it just appears to be Twitter talk, and having used Google, I'm struggling to find anything...
Surprised there's no thread for this yet.
Taking place in Canada, which means most of the games start a little too late for me to make an effort to watch.
This year sees the tournament expand to 24 teams, though with last night's result, it show it was probably best to have stayed as a smaller...
So as well as going off at the end of the season for games in Malaysia and Australia, it has been announced today that we will face the MLS All-Stars on 29th July in Colorado.
Levy and Co trying to rack up the air miles!
I know he's a bit marmite when it comes to commentary, but I hope he pulls through:

All 3 clubs banned from transfer dealings for remainder of season, except under exceptional circumstances.
Possible that other clubs yet to be dealt with.

Did anyone else watch the Sky Sports special with Pierluigi Collina?
Fascinating stuff as he talked through the responsibilities of the 5th & 6th officials (the ones that stand on the goal line in European games).
A major misconception amongst both fans and clubs is that they are there just to...
FIFA have imposed a transfer ban on Barcelona for the next 2 windows, effectively meaning they can do no incoming business until Summer 2015.
At first I thought this might relate to the slightly dodgy Neymar deal, but apparently it's for breach of regulations in the transfer of U18 players...
So last night saw the start of the new PDC Premier League season.
Newcomers Dave Chisnall and Peter Wright both came flying out of the blocks with victorys, but perhaps the biggest surprise of the night was Peter Taylor being battered into submission by Michael Van Gerwen. Wasn't even a close...

Sports Direct is of course Mike Ashley's own company..... and to be honest, if their news is as good as half the product they sell, then this is utter utter crap!
On the other hand, if Newcastle, with no...
So according to the DM, Barca were forced to accept a bid from an un-named Russian club (believed to be Anzhi Machalackalackalackaa.....) which triggered his release clause.
They apparently also offered him £460,000 per week as well.
He turned it all down......
So the world's greatest knockout club competition begins in earnest this evening.
Anyone following the progress of a smaller club?
I will be watching MK Dons travel to Cambridge City on ESPN tonight.
