It hasn't been the best of starts to say the least. Could be a bad result today.....

1-0.

Given to the rescue?

We're in big trouble if this continues - incessant pressure from them.

IF he does come I hope we call him "Nacho" and not Ignacio!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignacio_Mar%C3%ADa_Gonz%C3%A1lez Is this him?

How will Keegan deal with "he's the last player me or the owner want to sell" issue? He must have known something was up when he said this. Maybe Keegan didn't want to sell him but Ashley did. Who knows - we now need some fast dealing and as Keegan says players who are better than we already have.

At least Dick Turpin wore a mask. Stitched them up like a kipper - 12m quid! Now.....(and quickly)....for the replacement.....

Could G be the legendary Micksta? I'm still waiting for Taiwo to sign.

Yes indeed. Take it with a bucket full, not a pinch of salt.

A few less reputable boards (is that possible!?) are spectulating that the "Wow" signing will be announced at 6 p.m. tonight. I believe it so much I'm off to bed. Hopefully Huntelaar will be a Toon player when I wake up tomorrow morning.....er.... maybe not.

Does not sound good at all, that.

He scored for the U18s on Saturday.

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/team/?page_id=6587&player_id=37 Rumoured to be the mystery Southampton player:

Here it is: JAVIER SAVIOLA has dropped a hint that he will move to Newcastle – if Real Madrid don’t want to keep him, but Newcastle are considering making a big-money move for Chelsea star Florent Malouda. Saviola last night hinted he would be willing to join United on loan, but the Sunday Sun understands the Magpies have approached Chelsea regarding a possible £10 million deal for 28-year-old Malouda. In response, Chelsea will only consider parting with former Lyon winger Malouda once they have confirmed the signing of Saviola’s Real Madrid team-mate Robinho. Newcastle’s need for more new signings is ever more apparent after injuries to Obafemi Martins and Damien Duff in yesterday’s 1-0 victory over Bolton. Florent Malouda of Chelsea United are also eyeing Wigan’s Antonio Valencia as an alternative to Malouda, along with Sparta Prague left-back Michal Kadlec. Meanwhile, United boss Kevin Keegan is ready to stake his reputation - and defy angry fans - by making a personal show of support for Joey Barton at the disgraced midfielder’s FA disciplinary hearing on September 5 . . . Amid fears that Barton, following his imprisonment for assault and affray, could be suspended from football until next year. “I will appear personally at the hearing if required. Definitely,” said Keegan. “As long as he (Barton) doesn’t let me or this club down again he has 100 per cent support from me.” Keegan added: “I know a lot of people don’t agree with me. I have had lots of letters. But if you support someone you support them. I don’t think it is brave. It is what I think is right.”

Deco is class - what a free kick.

So Kadlec (don't know much about him), Malouda/Valencia and Saviola according to Farrington's Fables? For once I hope they have got something right.

Our lowest league crowd since the redevelopment? Yes we'll be bashed in the papers, no doubt.

Jammy scousers as usual.

Stoke drew? Anyway we won so who cares!?

Jussi J. up for the corner.

Nolan nearly scores again. Corner to them....

We are hanging on now. 3 minutes of torture to go.

Shay Motm!

Not long to go now.....
