World Dominance the FCK way..part 1

Dec. 24 | It may have escaped your notice this season but the Premier League is one of the most open we have seen for decades. The situation is not the same across Europe though. Head 600 miles east from London and you will land pretty much in the centre of Copenhagen,...

All the bases loaded

Nov. 28 | Essex Park. Try finding that one on the map of grounds in Europe and I bet your efforts at locating it will end in frustration after you have trawled through the English Non Leagues. You see it isn’t on these shores at all. It’s in Denmark,...

Unsung Heroes Part 4: Remember you’re a Womble

Fancy a cheeky weekend away?

Jun. 16 | One of the greatest joys in life is a European Football Weekends.  We love them so much that Danny even named his site after them.  What could be better than sitting in a foreign football stadium, watching some crap football with a bottle of  ”Plop”...
