Apparently Dave Whelan is also being investigated for racism. (Source)

Someone hand this man a UKIP application form, please.

I cannot!

How did I miss this? SMH. No wonder why Mackay got the nod. Hold up, let me amend the post. WTF? Thanks for the heads up, mate

[meliadoul]

Don't worry, he has loads of Chinese and Jewish friends! (yes, Whelan said that)

[itsacoco]

Oh, yeah. This just in! Zizou-gate has finally reached a dramatic conclusion!!

The Court of Arbitration in Sport has ruled in favor of Madrid's appeal to lift the three-month ban on Zinedine Zidane. (source)

Yayyy Zidane!

[jazzypom]

Good on him. In other drama, Lionel Messi might leave Barcelona to avoid the tax jail threat.

OMG

RE: Yayyy Zidane!

[itsacoco]

..... jesus. This is so wild. I mean, I don't really think he's going to leave. But it's certainly an interesting angle to by with the rumors.

damn, i thought the tax evasion case was already settled? what a messy situation (sorry not sorry lol).

[mrsvixen]

This Marca cover is amazing, hahahaha. and Pepe needs to stfu.

Basti back in training does good things to my heart.

[mrscrapbag]

well, crispy is his teammate. ;)

i need ja rule to make sense of all of this though...

[mrsvixen]

yeah, but I mean... calling it an 'embarrassment' if he doesn't win is a bit over-dramatic. now the Ballon d'Or is basically a Messi x C. Ronaldo competition anyway.

[mrscrapbag]

well that's pepe for ya.

Can Ballon d'Or be presented already?!

[mundodeamor]

I'm so tired of the whole thing and it's not even December yet - at this point I don't even care who wins it anymore, just get it over with. I'm sick of the Real camp bullying the press/public into Ronaldo winning. It seems similar to a political campaign now. I get it that his teammates (and coaches/friends) root for him, but saying that ''if another player wins the Ballon d'Or they should be embarrassed'' is a bit low. I see no reason why Neuer, for example, should feel embarrassed if he manages to win it.

Re: Can Ballon d'Or be presented already?!

[jazzypom]

Damn, I'm rooting for Neuer to win it, just to break up the tug of war between Ronaldo and Messi. Just to shut the tumblr people who are on a crusade for 'King Cristiano'.

RE: Can Ballon d'Or be presented already?!

[mrsvixen]

exactly!

I miss the simpler times, when each year a different player would win the Ballon d'Or...

RE: Can Ballon d'Or be presented already?!

[mrscrapbag]

just wait till they announce the top 3... it would be twice the insanity. lol

[mundodeamor]

Anyone has a spare £7 million lying around? That's Cech's buyout clause from Chelsea

I didn't know he had a buyout clause, but I read something about him going to Arsenal. However, Mou promises (lol) that Cech hasn't come to him about accepting any proposal.

[the4thjuliek]

Lol, I can't trust Mou about these things anymore. I love Cech but that Arsenal rumor is downright terrifying.
