Late on Saturday night Juande Ramos - approaching his 1-year anniversary at the club - was sacked by chairman Daniel Levy. It had become almost inevitable after the club’s poor start to the campaign, and the fan’s increasing frustration at team selection and tactics - along with the role of Damien Comolli as sporting director.

With Tottenham struggling at the bottom of the English Premier League table, Dimitar Berbatov showed them what they are missing at Old Trafford tonight, scoring twice in a 3-0 win over Celtic. Meanwhile Arsenal hit 5 past Fenerbahce. Read more »

Spurs’ boss Juande Ramos has admitted he is “worried about the situation.” Speaking after Tottenham’s sixth league defeat, he said “At the moment it is terrible.”

Tottenham’s worst league start for years has left them at the foot of the table with just 2 points from 8 matches, and not a win in sight.

Lewis Hamilton demonstrated the mindset of a world champion with a measured but blindingly fast drive to finish ahead of Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen at the Shanghai circuit today.

Unlike in Japan, Ferrari did not beat Hamilton off the start line – he led into the first corner, and then to the chequered flag.  Although the trio ran similar fuel strategies, Hamilton was faster than both Raikkonen and Massa  - he had one extra lap of fuel than Massa, but ran the same two-stop strategy as Raikkonen, pitting on laps 15 and 38. The McLaren mechanics were faster in the pits today than Ferrari, too. Read more »

Sunday, 28th September 2008, the date of the first ever night race in Formula 1 history. With such a build-up, it would have been a travesty if the race itself proved to be non-eventful. Thankfully for all concerned, there was to be no disappointment.

Title contenders Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa started alongside each other on the front row, with the Brazilian edging it in qualifying. Read more »

Well, as Meatloaf once said…”Two outta three, ain’t bad.”  Late last week, I made my predictions on the Davis Cup Semifinals, as well as the Great Britain/Austria Playoff Tie, and as you can guess, correctly predicted two of them. Read more »
