Former Champ Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 What are everyone's favorite soccer sites? I really like the BBC site for following the English leagues (excellent coverage of the lower divisions) and the FIFA site is adequate for following International soccer. I'm hoping to find an english language site where I can follow the promotion and relegation battles in lower divisions in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devioustrevor Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 If you want to follow some of the lesser Leagues and Leagues that aren't at the top of their country I like http://www.coto.at/ As for soccer websites I like some are http://www.ufwc.co.uk/ <---Unofficial World Championship http://www.planetworldcup.com/ http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/ http://www.scotprem.com/ <---Scottish Premiership http://www.premierleague.com <---English Premiership http://www.thefa.com/ <---English FA, I use it to keep track of the early rounds of the FA Cup Those are the Soccer sites I like best for real life soccer, I also play a pair of on-line Soccer Sims Hattrick and Freekick. They are available at: http://www.hattrick.org <---Has almost 400,000 users worldwide, Canada is among the top National Teams in HT http://www.freekick.org <---Still kind of new, not as good as Hattrick which has a really active community. No national teams, developers keep promising them though Both those games are free to play, although they both have supporter features which allow you to set your team logo and match kits. I don't have supporter for Freekick as it's only a secondary diversion. I have supporter for Hattrick (C$32 a year) and am very happy with all the features.

Gordon Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 There is this site of course, nuber 1 fave rave. I tend to like fan sites quite a bit - and my current favourite is www.roversrearguard.com which is, of course, a Tranmere site. I like their discussion of their team, other temas, football in general and the various off topic items that come up. If it stays as it is, I'll be frequenting the site even if young Hume departs. BBC is also good for British football, and I think they do a fabulous job covering the lower leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Oranje Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 To get in touch with the geek in me, www.rsssf.com Like browsing a used book store. You never know what you will find and some real information gems. Nothing fancy.. just hard core info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metro Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 The greatest football website I had ever seen was Umbro's www.onefootball.com. Unlike every other English language website, it did not focus primarily on the UK but had regular profiles and analyisis of leagues and clubs from all over the world. Unfortunately it's no longer in service. I have yet to find a website of equal quality but for the moment I use primarily planetfootball.com and ESPN's soccernet.com. Devioustrevor, I also participate in hattrick.org and think its great. You might also want to try Soccersim at soccertest.gafmo.dk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sstackho Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 In terms of supporters' sites, the Crystal Palace messageboard is wonderful. Lots of activity, smart people and interesting off-topic discussions. Often I do a Google search for something soccer-(but-not-Palace)-related, and I end up finding it on www.cpfc.org anyway!
