Sounds like a very good price for someone who is in the last year of his contract.

It hasn't sounded like a disastrous summer. Some big hiccups, certainly, but I don't think you're in particularly awful shape.

Beyond the trouble this is causing, he speaks a hell of a lot of truth.

"They've probably seen it as another sort of dictatorial move from us..." Not sure what he means by that.

What's the Serie A?

Chronicle is delivered to newsagents midday-ish I think. Edit: obviously I'm going to the wrong places, namely Gateshead. Aye, guess it's earlier selling it about the city.

Is that last bit referring to that bizarre new league system they've adopted? It sounds just plain, well, yeah, bizarre.

I realise I'm more than late to the party, but what happened? S'gannin on? Aye, this.. Also, where the fuck is djmattis? jejejejejeing all night long.

Has Colocho emigrated to France?

Cracking own goal anarl.

Stoke going to win both legs.

Hope it succeeds, it sounds a decent concept.

You'd get loads, man.

Owen Coyle thinks Barton's best position is in the middle. Problem Ronaldo?

A truly inspiring interview here.

If anyone wants to cheered up after a bad few days for Newcastle, you can see our lot more than likely be outplayed by Villarreal tomorrow on ITV4 (I think).

Bloody hell, new domestic seasons are pretty much here already. The off-season has flown by.

Basically, some bloke called Barry has decided it was a ridiculous offer?

Beat me to it, to the exact image as well.

Those Russian clubs are renowned for paying small wages after all. But we maybe can a move to Newcastle will be music to the ears of Wagner. Need to remember though, will his girlfriend settle in the UK? You wouldn't want to Russia.
