Log on to Football FanCast.com every weekend morning around 9.00am and let Billy Batts save you the hassle of surfing the web and bring you all the top headlines in the football world.
Football FanCast columnist Jerome Johnstone follows up his search for the most intimidating football ground in Britain. And asks the question who gets the most luck in British football? Top contenders include Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Celtic, Chelsea etc.
Many will site the Manchester United victories over recent years as all down to hard work, grit and determination however no-one can dispute that they are a lucky side! United vs Spurs and the "Mendes goal that never was" goes some way to proving this theory.
Football FanCast is introducing its new ‘hall of fame' which is a celebration of all the great players that have graced pitches in the British Isles in the last 30yrs.
The best thing about football is that is brings people together. For ten months you are locked together in one big family; all sharing the same dreams and hopes that your football club is going to succeed and whether your Man United or Mansfield, Arsenal or Aldershot; those same emotions are replicated throughout.

columnist Brian-Damien Morgan hopes
that Aiden McGeady doesn't get tempted by a move to the Premier League and
feels he is better off at Celtic Park.
South
of the Scottish border there is the feeling that the SPL is an inferior league,
not in the sense that the SPL is amateur in any way but there is a gulf in
terms of attracting big players and paying big money. Too many fans that
support SPL teams understand it's inevitable that they will see their best players
being lured away to other leagues such as the Premiership in search of money,
fame and glory.
Football FanCast columnist Brian
Damien-Morgan pays tribute to Tommy Burns.
The death of Tommy
Burns has come as a huge shock to all people connected with Celtic Football
Club. His contribution to the club is unsurpassed, as is his passion for the
team he supported as a boy and in his many roles at Celtic park. His joyful and
playful personality is the characteristic that has endeared him to fans and
friends all his life.
Football FanCast columnist Jim McKendry is delighted to see Celtic take an 8pt lead and wonders whether Rangers
have the stomach to stop them winning a third successive title.
I don't think there was one Celtic fan who truly believed
two months ago that we would still be in the Championship race. Such was the
way Gordon Strachan's team was performing with a complete lack of zeal; it
looked like we had all but surrendered our SPL title.
Football FanCast columnist Joe Jennings looks on at the plight of Gretna and feels more should be done in the game to keep these clubs afloat.
Football FanCast columnist Jim McKendry is disappointed with Celtic's defeat in the old firm derby and wonders if they have surrendered their hopes for a 42nd Scottish title.
The brief was simple; win and you go top of the table, lose and you face an uphill struggle. It was always going to be the toughest of tasks today at Ibrox Park but defeat today has left Celtic's title hopes in tatters, thanks to Kevin Thomson goal on the stroke of half time.
