by
Helen Robson
Turks are one of the nations that are fond of football. They try not to miss any match of their favorite teams, and are avid fans. It is by no means surprising, that in Istanbul there are many stadiums, and the majority of them correspond to the standards of the IOC.

by
Marc Carinci
Summer is over. That only means one thing: the Champions League is back. This year's joint favourites, Barcelona and Chelsea, have fast become bitter rivals in this competition. That rivalry is certain to intensify since they were drawn into the same group at this early stage of the tournament. The format is as follows: 32 teams contest the group stage, divided into eight groups of four. The group winners and runners-up advance to the knockout stages, the eight third-placed teams move into the UEFA Cup third round, and the eight fourth-placed teams are eliminated.

Boom or Bust
by
Paul Gore
The plight of Leeds United over recent years has highlighted the recent trend of teams that aim for instant success in a 'Boom or Bust' attitude. Their relegation in 2004 showed the errors of this approach and hopefully clubs can take heed of this in the future. Not all clubs who have this attitude suffer the same fate as Leeds and there are a handful clubs who have been successful with this policy.
