and its very kind of mr ashley to actually give us a manager i was convinced he would wait until the very last minute (if at all).

this crossed my mind, but then remembered that the players basically said "give us shearer or we leave". also, has kinnear got a list of targets?? does he even know what day it is??

the end of the world - its as simple as that EDIT: actually on second thoughts, its kinda good to have a manager. EDIT: actually, is he just there to sell everybody for MA? EDIT: i cant decide PLEASE DONT BE TRUE

so these Sports Direct numbers.....what would be a success for us?? If things aren't going well for him, does that force him to sell quicker?? or do they have no bearing whatsoever??

- The World Cup - Nostalgia - Football Manager - Playing football - Habib Beye ........thats pretty much it. actually, looking at that list makes me kinda miserable.

from the front it looks like theyre wearing a cape......a big white cape.

Wolves have went in for James McCarthy for £1million, take-it-or-leave-it. Absolute bargain if his namesake pulls it off.

hang on, what makes this different to the other players that want to leave?? its not like he's virtually gone.

do you now? Well aye, there's some limits. When Beye goes, those limits wont exist. for me, those limits haven't existed for several months now. if anything bad happens to him, so be it.

Michael Owen, Number 7. Is this transfer a game of dare that went wrong?

m'bia only wants to be at marseille for a year!! can't see that going down too well.... http://www.goal.com/en/news/90/france/2009/07/12/1378638/stephane-mbia-planning-one-year-stay-at-marseille not the greatest website, but strange if its true.

Correct-a-mundo

A member of the FIFA 100, I'm the all time top scorer for my national team who I've played for in 3 world cups. I'm so beloved at one club that theres a bronze statue of me outside the stadium, despite once being relegated there under an ex-Chelsea manager. My middle name is an anagram of a club I played for.

Takayuki Morimoto give me some time to sort out my own haha

what happened to the chronicle's "geremi to cologne" story the other night??? to get him off the wage bill would be just lovely....

might have the knock on effect of WBA signing Danny Fox from Coventry, which would make me want to impale Di Matteo on a giant rusty nail.

i'd love to go to a bundesliga match. it sounds like a very unique atmosphere, with terracing, crazy fans and beer

Sounds true enough. I'm going to send it to a few mates. we'll get it on sky and the beeb by midday

Zaragoza are getting Pennant Wigan agree a £2m fee for Jason Scotland

my mate is fairly close with the Shepherds. he said we were sold this evening to an Asian consortium but led by a local multi-millionnaire (not Freddy). No word on the price yet, but Shearer should be in by Saturday and he's begun negotiations to bring in Beckford, Evans and Matt Mills. Still too late to convince Bassong to stay though Freddy's not best pleased but Ashley made it clear he'd prefer not to do business with him. personal grudges shouldnt be getting in the way, but this is MA we're talking about.....somebody not known for his common sense, logic and decency. see how easy it is to make stuff up?? i can be a right bastard sometimes

thats probably correct tbh. it sounds realisitc anyways...

it says a lot that when the mackem's want a laugh, they pull a joke on their rivals (rick parkinson). yet we just do it to ourselves out of self-depreciation. having said that, we should make up a rumour on the spot and see how far we can take it....
