Team Focus: Rampant Watford Firing Towards Promotion Sometimes managerial uncertainty does not translate on to the pitch.

Team Focus: Post-January Squad Depth Leading Derby Towards Promotion Darren Bent has had a curious career. His talent has never been doubted but the most frustrating thing about the 31-year-old is how easily he can flit from prolific to profligate. For each season like the 24 league goals he scored for Sunderland in 2009/10, there was a campaign like 2007/08 at Totte...

Team Focus: Brentford's Bold Approach Paying Dividends in the Championship

Team Focus: Brentford's Bold Approach Paying Dividends in the Championship The Mark Warburton story is well told by now but no less enjoyable. To summarise: Warburton was working in a good job in the City but packed it all in to become a coach. When Uwe Rösler departed Brentford in League One for Wigan above them, a face pretty much unrecognisable outside of a pocket ...

Team Focus: Howe has the Chance to Make History with Free-scoring Bournemouth Six years ago Bournemouth were 91st in the Football League, heading for a gloomy Christmas and a distinct possibility of falling into the Conference. Now they sit top of the Championship at the beginning of the festive spell. The past five leaders on December 25th have been promoted; this 124-year-o...

Team Focus: Ipswich Strike Partnership Leading the Promotion Charge If money, as we are led to believe, is the key to success in football, Ipswich should be nowhere near the top. Bereft of a transfer kitty, Mick McCarthy relies on free acquisitions and loans while others around them spend big in pursuit of elevation.Yet the bandwagon continues to roll, a 4-1 win ove...

Team Focus: Slade's Inconsistent Cardiff Could Begin to Test Tan's Patience

by Alan Smith at lunes, nov. 10 2014 17:21
Team Focus: Slade's Inconsistent Cardiff Could Begin to Test Tan's Patience Russell Slade is one of the most genial managers currently in employment, so when his tone turns to annoyance it is immediately noticeable. A month into his tenure as Cardiff City manager, to say he has had mixed results would be underselling the contrasts between their dreadful away form and impres...
