Boot Wars: He Who Shall Be O-Beye-D

May 12th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

It was the clash of the fallen titans, and one which looked to be hammering a severely rusty nail into the coffin of the barcodes after Habib Beye’s hilarious own goal after only two minutes of the relegation six-pointer that was Newcastle United versus Middlesbrough at St James’ Park last night.
Strange, because only yesterday morning [...]

Boot Wars: North-East All Or Nothing

May 11th, 2009 by James Evans | 1 Comment

As for Beye, since when did defenders wear Nike Mercurial Vapors? The speediest, lightest, most attack-minded boot ever made. Good in the tackle? No. Gritty? No. A defender’s boot? No way.

Boot Room Banter: Rochdale’s Adam Le Fondre..

March 25th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

I just get a better feel on the ball with the Vapors really and the Predators feel a bit clunky these days, so the Vapors are my preferred choice and it is all about individual preference I guess.

Boot Room Boffins: Size matters!

February 12th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

There is certain evidence to suggest that wearing boots that are too small may harm feet in the years to come.

Boot Room Banter: Watford’s Lee Williamson..

February 11th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

I go through maybe two pairs of match boots in a season and another three training boots, but with the current weather you go through more because the boots are getting wet and stretching and shrinking.

I wear the Nike Tiempo Legends – I’ve been wearing them for a good few years now.

Boot Wars Review: Defoe’s Destiny

January 19th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

It just had to happen. After all the furore of the past few days, Jermain Defoe’s goalscoring return to action at the Lane, and against former club Portsmouth no less, was as predictable as AC Milan finally realising that they might do well to seriously consider accepting Man City’s multi-millions… how many Ronaldos could you [...]

Boot Wars Review.. United They Stand

January 12th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

Abramovich has got his wish! He sacked Avram Grant (and the Special One before him) because Chelsea weren’t entertaining enough, well they sure are now… to the rest of the Premier League.
Sunday was a great example of a team seemingly lost in the mire, and as for Boot Wars, maybe the most conclusive victory yet, [...]

Boot Wars: Curtain up at the Theatre..

January 9th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

With every passing weekend, another top-flight clash to savour.
As if this six-pointer isn’t exciting enough, we have found ourselves confronted with a Premier League season in which neither of these clubs is the top dog, so while the red/blue saga of recent years has been exciting, we have new levels of pulse-racing to contend with, [...]

Boot Boffins: Kicking Up A Stink, Still?

December 11th, 2008 by James Evans | Comment

As the boffins of the boots, the first-class brains of footwear, and the ultimate clever-cleats (or should that be clogs?), Ransacker feels compulsed to remind you of the stink that consumers have been kicking up (no pun intended) about nifty Nike boots.
BBC programme Watchdog broke the story a while back, and they updated their campaign [...]
