Football
Football, the joy, the passion, the love, the religion. See my Newcastle United pages for the team I support/worship. They play in the English Premier League. For those from Mars football is a game played between two teams, which evokes passions which have been described as an alternate to tribal warfare at times (and that is not advocating the idiots who use it as an excuse to exercise their mindless violance. They are nothing but horrible hooligans). New comers and old fans alike should read The Laws of the Game (PDF) (and their Q & A's (PDF)), as supplied by FIFA (the world governing body).
- My thoughts on Newcastle United, Diary of a Fan
- The world governing body is FIFA
- The european game is administered by UEFA
- The BBC have football news
- During match days Ananova have good coverage, with a desktop score board available for each individual match.
- Sky have a quick live score update service.
- Football365 is another good site. There statistics section is especially useful should you want to know who has the best away record on a Tuesday and the like.
