The Onion Bag Links Page

Back in the day links pages were the cornerstone of the World Wide Web. Surfers would often head to them after only a brief period on its corresponding web site anxious to know the location of other like minded people. "Good heavens" they would say "I never realised just how many Avengers web sites there were. Although on reflection I'm not altogether surprised".

Nowadays of course this valuable public service has been reduced to a collection of mates web sites unrelated to their own or a series of dead links and 404 messages as other web masters lost interest/got girlfriends/blew their brains out in despair.

And so it is in spirit of the days when the Internet was run by the people rather than a small group of transnational concerns that we present The Onion Bag's links page. Here you will find a range of football web sites we like... plus, yes OK, a few others that have sod all to do with it some of which may or may not be run by mates of ours.

Straight laced no nonsense football web sites

ITV
Enjoy the terrestrial Champions League and FA Cup coverage providers content without Jim Beglin.

The BBC
Results, news updates, John Motson all delivered with the gravitas and authority expected from this venerable arm of the British state. Obey. Conform. Marry and reproduce.

Football 365
Mostly culled from news wires but Mediawatch is pretty good

The Guardian
Home of The Fiver. A must for any football lovers inbox

Soccerway
Comprehensive, international and, in truth, a bit dull

Soccerbase
For those who need to know everything

Deutscher Fussball Bund
The Bag loves Hun football. This is the German FA's website. English version available

When Saturday Comes
More of a magazine than a website. The keeper of football's conscience. The Bag both hates it and seeks its approval. Pathetic really.

Teamtalk
Pure gold. Total unadulterated nonsense from beginning to end. Tabloid online. Where would the Bag be without it?

EPL Talk
Do they mean us? Blog and regular podcast about the Premier League from the US.

Albion Road
Frighteningly well-researched information on clubs and leagues from around the world. Lose yourself in it.

The Political Economy of Football
Accessible finance news about the world of football with lots of joyless stats.

Goaljunky
Rapidly updated goal videos. Probably about as legal as those russian-mafia owned MP3 websites and more than likely this close to be shutdown.

The Other Onion Bag
US-based football shirt website that shares our name. Sort of like when people you don't know add you as a friend on facebook because you share the same name. Weird.

Comedy football websites

The Gaffer
A very funny new football satire site. We shall crush it like so many before.

Sports Offensive
Football satire site as old as the Bag. Recently reborn and as funny as ever.

Laugh FC
Full of low brow terrace banter. Very popular.

Danger Here
We all knew that football commentators and pundits talked arse. Now we have the evidence.

Other sites of interest

HumorFeed
The Bag is proud to be called an approved Humor Feed site. Go there for all your satire needs.

TV Cream
It stands alone. A king amongst men.

Speak your Branes
Collection of the very worst from the Have Your Say section of the BBC's website. The most delightful accumulation of ignorance and intolerance you will find.

Outpost Galifrey
"Tom's popping in now."

Magnatune
Record label with enlightened download and pricing philosophy. Doomed to failure.
