Time draws near for the beginning of the new football seasons across Europe. This weekend (aghh tomorrow- time waits for no fan then!) the Football League will get up and running again in England. The following weekend will be the Premier League’s turn (August 14th).
In fact one of the Premier League clubs have already got their season underway- Liverpool having just begun in their quest to emulate Roy Hodgson's former team Fulham. By entering the Europa League at the third qualifying round they face the prospect of a long and arduous season, but Liverpool fans will be hopeful that their new manager can raise his team to the challenge like he did last season.
The big news from beneath the Premier League this last week was all about Bristol City, or namely all about David James. The current England no. 1 signed a one-year deal for the Championship side last Friday after the confirmation of his release from Portsmouth (where he had initially been offered a new contract after their relegation last season).
After very nearly a month the 2010 FIFA World Cup is reaching it's climax. This evening's 3rd place play-off between Uruguay and Germany will have a sense of what might have been for the beaten semi-finalists. However both camps have been keen to stress that there is plenty left to play for, even if the match is usually seen as being of little overall importance.
