Anyone to have watched Soccer ‘not as funny as it used to be but still better than Saturday Kitchen’ AM over the past couple of weeks would have seen the Fart-gate story being aired…

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: Blades man Danny Webber

May 6th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

Fleet-footed striker Danny Webber learned his silky skills at Manchester United, but only managed a handful of appearances for the Premier League giants before joining Watford. He helped the Hornets to an FA Cup semi-final in 2002/03 - where they lost to Premier League Southampton - and notched 21 goals for the club before joining Sheffield United for £500,000.

Boot Wars: Keeping It Tight At The Back…

May 1st, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

The Puma V-Konstrukt III is a boot that prides itself on technology and performance coming together, harnessing all the power you would expect of the Puma range with the support and versatility associated with any goalkeeper’s boot. Ruthless German efficiency – say no more!

Boot Wars Review: Lescott, No Less

April 6th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

The Total 90 boot has finally clocked up its first Boot Wars victory, after three previous defeats. It’s too late for it to catch the frontrunners, but it’s good to see the old favourite back on its feet. Literally.

Boot Wars: The Battle of the Have Nots

April 4th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

Some might think it strange for Everton defender Lescott to be wearing the same Nike Total 90 Laser boot as Wayne Rooney, but Everton’s slick game relies on moving the ball around the midfielder, and with Lescott being the prime supply line at the start of that process, Everton rely heavily on the accomplished defender.

Boot Wars: Tottenham Tearaways on the International Scene

March 27th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

Home advantage for Keane and a bit that suits the Republic’s all-out goalscoring thrust. Berba’s Predator implies a more measured approach of touch and move football, but with the ability to strike decisively, whether that be for three or 30 yards.

Boot Wars Review: Red Heaven for Rafa’s Rampants

March 24th, 2009 by James Evans | Comment

Maybe we should have spotted the ease with which his Predators tore through the opposition midfield. Tough tackling, resilient moulding, durability, and the sweetest shot you could hope for, as his hat-trick in the 5-0 success proved.
