There are numerous websites, YouTube channels and blogs on the world wide web for you to get your daily dose of sports news updates and opinions. At one end of the scale, Sky Sports, the BBC and the top British newspapers often cover the same topics, breaking news and previews.

Then there are fan blogs and video channels of which many are dedicated to one team – their favourite. Which is fine if they are the same team as yours.

If you are a football or sports fan who wants to get updates from more than one team and are unimpressed by the traditional mainstream media, then here are four recommended sports news sites you may be unfamiliar with:

Football Blog

The guys behind Football Blog have been around for a number of years now but haven’t always got the coverage they deserve. Their team provide cutting edge analysis and opinion across the top European football divisions, including the English Premier League, Spanish La Liga and Italian Serie A, as well as the UEFA Champions League and Europa League competitions.

Tactical analysis, previews, history and opinion on the top stories and key players are just some of the topics covered on Football Blog, which provides fresh content every day. Their in-depth posts often educate or leave you intrigued.

Previous popular posts have included full transfer roundups, Chelsea’s failed tactical experiment versus Leeds United and the career of Alex McLeish. Yep, they cover just about everything there is to be covered!

Talking Sports

From the United Kingdom to the United States now as the Talking Sports blog comes from the other side of the ocean. However, it’s not only their home leagues they cover, such as the NFL, NBA and NHL, but they really do live up to their name with the broad range of sports they cover.

You will find content from a much greater range of sports, including Formula 1, Cricket, Football and Horse Racing. Instead of giving you the same news content that everyone has covered, Talking Sports aim to enlighten you and create thought-provoking content for its readers to enjoy.

Their definitive list of the most popular sports in the world proved a success.

Football Talk

One of the cult blogs in terms of football coverage, Football Talk has been around for more than a decade now and has a loyal fanbase without ever cracking the mainstream. Their team of writers cover the top Premier League teams… and Tottenham Hotspur.

They often break news stories before the likes of the BBC, whilst giving in-depth match previews, match reports, interviews, video content and post-game analysis from all the big Premier League and Champions League matches. Transfer rumours, transfer deals and opinions on players and managers are just some of the other topics covered on a daily basis.
