Jersey Bulls march on

This is what the Jersey Bulls reaction was at the end of the match. 

Jersey Bulls thrashed VCD Athletic FC in their FA Cup first qualifying round match. This what the Jersey Bulls website said: 

"The Bulls kicked off attacking the Town End against a strongly built V.C.D. team that many spectators thought would be difficult to break down. Despite this Jersey took the lead after just three minutes. Sol Solomon collected the ball near the half way line on the grandstand side and initially headed towards his own goal before turning quickly and lobbing the ball forward. 

"The bouncing ball eluded Jack Barry as Fraser Barlow chased after it and it fell to Barlow just outside the area as Sam Mott advanced from his goal. Barlow did excellently to lift it over Mott and the crowd held its breath for what seemed an age as the ball dropped in to the right-hand corner."

What are the Razzies?

Outside of The Oscars, there’s an awards ceremony that aims to honour a group of films from a particular year.  The Razzies, known as the Golden Raspberry Awards, take a very different look at the film industry.  At each ceremony, there are a number of different awards. One of the more humorous awards was won by Con-Air in 1997. The film took home the award for ‘Worst Reckless Disregard for Human Life and Public Property'. Despite this award, it was also nominated for several Oscars in the same year. It’s not the only film to have been nominated for both awards.

Transfer Deadline Day: Three of the best

Dimitar Berbatov - Tottenham to Manchester United in 2008 Earlier on this dramatic deadline day, it had appeared that Manchester City were going to shatter United's hopes after they had a bid of more than 20 million pounds accepted by Tottenham. United ultimately got their man and the Bulgarian would go onto win two Premier League titles and a League Cup whilst at Old Trafford.  At the time of the transfer, one Manchester United fan said: "Rooney, Ronaldo, Tevez, Berbatov - Is there a better attacking outfit? Now we are really ready to attack European football like we have done domestically." There is constant debate about the overall effectiveness of 'Berba' during his time at Old Trafford. Some United believed he was the world class addition needed at the time, o
