Is this a joke?

By: Anthony | Comments 1 Comment

So much for my over-confidence yesterday as we got handed a embaressing 1-0 defeat to SD Ponferradina. We started extremely slow in the first half as SDP dominated posession and shots on target although no real chances were created. In the second half both teams came out flying and also both created a [...]

Down but not out

By: Anthony | Comments 1 Comment

Well it’s disappointing to say the least. Losing to a newly (but pretty good) promoted Málaga team at home which is supposed to be a sanctuary but of course it was due. We could not go on week in week out winning every game, we do have the quality to achieve great things [...]

Here we go again…

By: Anthony | Comments 5 Comments

It was a bad night for Spain, where both Racing Santander and Deportivo lost their opening UEFA Cup matches but it was all celebrations down in the Sánchez Pizjuán where Sevilla handed former German Bundesliga champions Stuttgart a 2-0 defeat. The scoreline does not accurately reflect the match though, and even with the [...]

Dos cervezas and a LIVE BLOG

By: Anthony | Comments No Comments

This is officially the 100th post at the Sevilla offside, we beat Almería on the weekend with none of our top four strikers playing, and we are currently leading 2-0 in the 26th minute against Stuttgart in the UEFA Cup. Three big reasons to celebrate being a Sevillista.

So here it goes, my first ever [...]

Things are looking up

By: Anthony | Comments 3 Comments

Over the past couple weeks of internation duty we have lost several major key players to injury and it seemed like we would barely have enough men to field this Sunday when we travel to Almería. With Kanouté limping off in his match for Mali against Chad, to Chevantón feeling discomfort in his knee [...]

Injuries, Bad timing, and Compensation

By: Anthony | Comments No Comments

Man do I ever hate international breaks. Every time our talented squad go to serve for their respective countries it is almost inevitable that a couple of them will come back with an injury or two. The latest victims that have fallen to international duty are Chevantón, Kanouté, and possibly also Drago although [...]

The Kings of Europe and the Draw

By: Anthony | Comments 1 Comment

The UEFA Cup draw was held today for the group stages and although there are a few “groups of death” one of which we happen to be in, I still strongly believe there aren’t many teams on the level of Sevilla. The draw looks like this:
Group A
Schalke
PSG
Manchester City
Racing Santander
Twente
Group B
Benfica
Olympiacos
Galatasaray
Hertha Berlin
Metalist Kharkiv
Group C
Sevilla
Stuttgart
Sampdoria
Partizan
Standard Liege
Group [...]

High Expectations

By: Anthony | Comments 1 Comment

This past weekend Athletic Bilbao was handed a 4-0 thrashing by the hands of who else, but Sevilla. 4 goals by 4 different players on a night where we could do nothing wrong. Jesús Navas was the man of the match, creating almost every chance we had, and always causing havoc with the [...]

An Old Friend, How I’ve Missed Thee

By: Ryan | Comments No Comments

Last season I decided to start a blog about a lovely team called Sevilla FC, and how they were affectionately ‘my club’.
Little did I know that after that moment, I would sign up for about 194949 other blogs, thinking I could rule the world.
Well, tonight I was doing some number crunching [...]
