Here are some sister sites of ours which I'm giving some link love to...

The following is a list of football news sites. Most are Premiership news sites but there are also a couple of sites for the MLS soccer league in America.

Great Football News Sites

Reports are saying that superstar soccer player David Beckham will give a 30 minute TV interview during the Superbowl this Sunday.

This is a big story because 90 million sports viewers in the US, and particularly the kids and soccer moms among them represent a pretty huge potential new audience for the nascent MLS.

The odd thing is that the story is tough to confirm with the most high profile source seemingly the UK's Sunday Mirror.

Hundreds of secondary news sources have picked up the story but no broadsheets or trade news sources. One reliable TV trade source suggests Beckham will appear in a TV commercial, but no mention of any interview.

What is known is that David Beckham is joining for the LA Galaxy, and you can track news about David Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy in general here.

This is all very odd in my view but all will be revealed tomorrow evening.

Our sister company Affinity Media, which specializes in sports news websites is launching some sites shortly for the American market covering NFL news, NBA news, NHL news and MLB news.

Already doing a sterling job for UK soccer fans with some extremely popular news sites for Liverpool FC, Chelsea and Arsenal fans, this move into US sporting news is long overdue.

This is more for the benefit of everybody's favourite search engine (the sites themselves are just placeholders for now), but they will fairly shortly I'm assured be filled with lots of great sporting content for fans of Football, Basketball, Hockey and Baseball.

The company is just putting the finishing touches to some very cool software called Newsfinity which is a comprehensive platform for news aggregation and which currently powers the UK sports news sites.

More on this in a future post...
