These might help. It can happen to any of us. You’re checking your phone in the bathroom but somehow, it manages to escape your clutches, and finds its way into a sink or, even worse, a toilet. There’s nothing that’s more infuriating than seeing an expensive phone being damaged due to your own stupidity. But wait- there’s […]

Chelsea will appeal the red card shown to Thibaut Courtois during their 2-2 draw with Swansea City on Saturday. The Belgian goalkeeper appeared to take Bafetimbi Gomis out on the edge of the area as the Swans’ striker ran onto a through-ball from Jonjo Shelvey. It’s not immediately clear on what basis the Blues intend to […]

On those rare British summer days when it’s warm and dry enough to justify having a barbecue, the last thing you need is an invasion of flies around your food. Thankfully, our American cousins have gone to extreme lengths to make sure that “insect hunting is now a sport.” As shown in the advert below, […]

Forgive and forget. That’s the mantra that the characters from Game of Thrones live by because we all know that any arguments in Westeros are resolved with a peaceful discussion over hot cocoa. It’s not like the show revels in gory deaths, fatal backstabbing and characters that are about as untrustworthy as The Wall is cold. Spoiler […]

This isn’t what you’d expect to happen on the way to a football match, as some lunatic took a pot shot at Hertha Berlin’s team bus. The German club tweeted a picture of a bullet hole in the front window of their coach, after it was shot at by a motorcyclist in Bielefeld. Unfassbar! Auf dem […]

As Major League Soccer grows in popularity across the world, they seem to have adopted an unwelcome facet of the beautiful game – football violence.

Sit down, Angelo, we’ve some bad news for you. Angelo Ogbonna made his Premier League debut for West Ham on Sunday in their 2-0 win over Arsenal at Wembley Stadium. At least that’s what he thinks.

The Premier League is officially back. Arsenal fans’ significant pre-season optimism was shattered earlier today. The Gunners were different this year, they said, Petr Cech would be worth 10 to 12 points a season, they said. There are still 37 games to go, but the sight of a goalkeeper mistake and a complacent performance made it feel […]

Clearing headers doesn’t seem to be a part of David Moyes’ philosophy. Either that or he’s got some atrocious defenders in his squad as Real Sociedad conceded a pretty embarrassing own goal in a friendly against Atletico Madrid on Saturday. With the ball whipped into the box, one terrible header led to another terrible header, before […]

It was a proud moment for Reece Oxford on Sunday as the 16-year-old made his Premier League debut for West Ham in their 2-0 win at Arsenal. Oxford played like a seasoned veteran in the Hammers’ midfield, comfortably dealing with World Cup winner Mesut Ozil to earn plenty of praise from manager Slaven Bilic. Reece Oxford's Premier League […]

Tempers can often overflow at football matches, but this exchange between West Ham supporters and ArsenalFanTV regular Ty is inexcusable. It began with a typical post-match argument between rival sets of fans, with Ty understandably p*ssed off after watching Arsenal lose 2-0 at home to the Hammers.

Footballers aren’t strangers to practical jokes, but you don’t often see them messing around mid-game. Try telling that to former Wigan striker Franco Di Santo, though, who picked up a spider off the pitch and put it on his team-mate’s back. It looks like Schalke winger Leroy Sané might have a phobia of creepy crawlies as he […]

We’ve seen some terrible dives recently but this beats them all.

There aren’t many Liverpool fans who will miss Glen Johnson following his poor form last season. With Nathaniel Clyne coming in at right-back, and the shrewd additions of James Milner, Christian Benteke, Roberto Firmino, Danny Ings and Joe Gomez, most supporters feel the team has improved. But Johnson doesn’t agree with them. The 30-year-old, who moved […]

Mohamed Salah scored his first goal in Roma’s colours in a friendly against Valencia – but only after Gervinho hit both posts.

Jose Mourinho strikes us a man who’s easy to p*ss off. But Chelsea doctor Eva Carneiro may have been surprised by the manager’s outburst as she offered treatment to Eden Hazard late on in the Blues’ 2-2 draw with Swansea. Mourinho was incensed that his medical team ran on to the pitch – because that meant Hazard would […]
