Liverpool have been a bit in the wilderness for most of this title defense. While the Reds remain relatively strong – and alive – in both the Champions League and FA Cup, their form in the Premier League is what has dominated the chatter around the club. On the strength of two strong outings back-to-back […]
Shakur Stevenson had it pretty much entirely his way tonight against Teofimo Lopez, outclassing his rival en route to a wide unanimous decision win, taking the WBO super lightweight title in the process. It’s the fourth division in which the 28-year-old Stevenson (25-0, 11 KO) has won a world title. The fight was never truly […]
Club América recorded their first win of the season after they defeated Necaxa at home. While their first victory should be a cause for celebration the environment around the club is bittersweet as many changes are around the corner for the tricampeon. The day started off with warm sensations for América as two important players […]
Death, taxes, and the Minnesota Wild beating the Edmonton Oilers. On Saturday evening, the Oilers played the seventh of eight consecutive games, hosting the Wild for the final team this season. Like the previous two times, the Wild pulled out the win, defeating the Oilers 7-3. Things actually started off well for the Oilers, as…
Barcelona loanee Ansu Fati was back in the starting XI for Monaco on Saturday night and back in the goals. The forward struck after 33 minutes to give his side the lead in the Ligue 1 clash against Rennes at the Stade Louis II. Folarin Balogun found Fati inside the penalty area and he fired a […]

You can reach us on: [email protected] Dear Roker Report, I note with interest that some fans on here and other social media say the club should have done more […]
Having returned to club towards the end of the 1967-68 season and brought about a much-needed improvement in results, Sunderland manager Alan Brown soon found the going to be much tougher once his first full campaign back at the helm got underway. 12 months on from replacing the at times unpopular Ian McColl, ‘Bomber’s’ initial […]
There are defeats that sting, defeats that frustrate, and defeats that leave you staring at the pitch long after the final whistle, wondering how a team with so much potential can unravel so quickly. Sunderland’s 3–0 loss away to Bristol City falls firmly into that last category. It wasn’t just the scoreline, nor even the […]
I’m fed up of hearing about how great Dan Neil is and what a shame it is that he never got his chance in the Premier League. Don’t get me wrong: I love Dan Neil and I wish him well for the future. A local lad, a true fan, he came through the ranks, played […]
James Elliott says… When the season started, I think it’s fair to say that staying in the Premier League was the main objective. Despite some mixed results recently, we’ve done incredibly well adapting to the top division, and I’m incredibly proud to support and watch this team each week. For me, the remainder of the […]
On a night when context mattered as much as outcome, San Jose State (6-16, 1-10 MW) once again found itself measuring effort against execution, and depth against reality. The Spartans pushed and prodded for 40 minutes Saturday night at the Provident Credit Union Event Center, but New Mexico’s (18-4, 9-2 MW) balance, shooting, and poise […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been reshaping the middle and backend of their roster over the past week. They recently traded De’Andre Hunter for Dennis Schroder, Keon Ellis, and Emmanuel Miller, waived Chris Livingston, and signed Tristan Enaruna to a two-way spot. That trend continued as ESPN’s Olgun Uluc reported late Saturday evening that the team […]
The offseason may almost be over, but the Braves have widely been rumored to still be looking to add a starting pitcher and there are plenty left on the open market, as well as some presumably available via trade. The biggest fish in free agency is Framber Valdez and there has been some buzz about […]
If someone had told me prior to last night’s game that Chelsea were going to make history against West Ham United at Stamford Bridge, I would’ve bet a fair amount that something was about to go very, very wrong for us. Good thing I’m not a betting man! Granted, for the first 45 minutes, something […]
SNY | John Flanigan: A couple of weeks ago, the Yankees sent four prospects to the Miami Marlins to acquire exciting, yet injury-prone lefty Ryan Weathers to fortify their rotation. Weathers, who posted a 3.99 ERA in 38.1 innings last year with 37 strikeouts, still hasn’t hit his ceiling according to pitching coach Matt Blake. […]
After a few days of speculation, the Cleveland Cavaliers have traded away De’Andre Hunter to the Sacremento Kings in a three-team deal. They’ll be receiving Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis from the Kings and two-way player Emanuel Miller from the Chicago Bulls. Dario Saric, a 2029 second-round pick from the Kings, and the Denver Nuggets’ […]
This one wasn’t pretty, but it was effective in the end. Tonight none of the big names for the Rockets had a good offensive night. Sengun just looks broken right now, but of course he’s playing because Adams is out for the season, and no one has seen fit to reward Capela’s generally very good […]
MSU took 5 of 6 points from Penn State in a crucial matchup this weekend to put MSU’s chance at a B1G three peat into their own hands. Friday night saw the Spartans take care of business on a 6-3 win with an Anthony Romani hat trick as Saturday Charlie Stramel hit the hat trick […]

There are just a few certainties in this world. Death, taxes and no one understanding what the Kings are doing. On Saturday night, the Kings, Cavs and Bulls completed a three-team trade that involved two Lakers trade targets. Cleveland sent De’Andre Hunter to Sacramento, who will send Dennis Schröder and Keon Ellis to Cleveland. Chicago […]
The Kentucky Wildcats knocked off the Arkansas Razorbacks inside Bud Walton Arena by a final score of 85-77. The Cats grabbed their biggest road win of the season against a familiar face in John Calipari. What a season it has been for this team. As the calendar flips to February, Mark Pope’s team is still […]
The Chicago Bulls are… making a smart trade for draft assets? What is happening? Per Michael Scotto of HoopsHype , Chicago will absorb the expiring contract of center Dario Saric while adding a pair of second-round picks, as part of a three-team exchange headlined by the Cleveland Cavaliers offloading forward De’Andre Hunter to the Sacramento Kings in exchange for wing Keon Ellis and the contract of veteran guard Dennis Schroder.
The Bulls will waive native Chicagoan Jevon Carter, who wra...
Atlético de Madrid’s first visit to the Ciutat de València in three years ended in a goalless draw, the Rojiblancos’ first such result this season.
