This week saw my debut post on the very popular website In Bed With Maradona , a collection of some of the best football bloggers out there, very honoured to be part of the site, I will be contributing a piece every month, and look forward to scouring the depths of World Football for interesting stories.

Please have a look at my first contribution featuring the Ukrainian striker Vasiliy Sachko, on a scoring streak with FC Vorskla.

Hope you enjoy the piece, let me know what you think?

• Absolute belting goal by NYRB Dane Richards, top corner from the edge of the box 2-1 NYRB
• # – Gary Hooper to have medical with Celtic today, Raul to sign with Schalke, Guti to Besiktas
• # Mancini says he'll pay £70m for Torres, Newcastle looking at Ben Arfa on loan, Birmingham chase Nathanial Clyne
• # Rafael Marquez due to join Henry in New York, Gallas turns down Panathinaikos, Eric Djemba-Djemba linked with move to West Brom
• Do Schalke have an all white strip, just to ease the transition of seeing him not in a Real shirt
• # – Gary Hooper agrees personal terms with Celtic, now just the medical before it's official
• RT @:if # land dzeko & david luiz , they've got the tools to establish themselves as a force in euro football for next decade

• Braga v Celtic – this link works http://desportotvciga.blogspot.com/
• Why is the bloody ball ornage
• Passing is just too slow, need to inject some pace into Celtic's play, Browna n Maloney passengers so far
• If that's all Mulgrew is gonna do all year is pump long balls up, he can do one now, even Naylor could do that
• For me the whole point of 4-2-3-1 is that you pass the ball not hoof it up to a big man
• Words escape me for that referee's decision, illegal penalty too
• Celtic playing awful I feel, the constant long balls are really grating with me, it's just giving the ball away
• Need to change it, it's just not working, if your gonna hit it long need 2 upfront
• Hooiveld, Mulgrew and Maloney have had shockers, probably others too
• Need an away goal now, brown was sleeping at the corner
• Well thanks Champions League it's been nice, out before August….lovely
• Any Celtic fan that truely beleives they can advance next week, please let me know your reasons, I saw nothing positive in that game
