Vandersaar out for 8 weeks including the Community Shield on Sunday. Finger broken against Bayern has been operated on and he will not play until October sorry Devils fans....

Pompey on the Brink. No Buyer - Player car boot sale - no dough. David Nugent and Marc Wilson brawled with steel coat hanger rails ripped from their hotel rooms after a 5am bust up on the turps. They will be disciplined in house.

Arsenal interested in Soloman Kalou - GG says come and take the useless pr!ck.

Reals Spending has now hit £220M so far with £30M for Alonso in Rafa's back pocket to splash.

Spurs ended up with £15M for Bent - nice coin for a pretender.

That's all for now.

Happy with that for Bent.

And Bolton has bought a whole back line and not one attacking midfielder (which we desperately need) and even another striker.

I so feel a team like this

Jussi

10 defenders

0 mids

0 strikers

sigh

Seems to have been revised down to 10m - still overpriced, but a bit more realistic after last year's horror show.

Indeed KW. Went from 13 to 15 to 10. Danile Levy tough negotiator. Niall Quinn better I'd say....

Wigan have just signed striker Scott Sinclair on a season-long loan from Premier League rivals Chelsea.

Spurs miss out on Hunterlaar - off to AC Milan.

Tevez injured in the Man City shower, slipped over trying to pick up the soap could face tests next week to be fit. Knew The Devils fans will love to hear that one..... Wonder who tried to ram one into him? Ha!!!

Man City lost 3-2 to Rangers last night as well.

CHELSEA’S hopes of signing Andrea Pirlo are over after AC Milan insist he is not for sale

Lyn Oslo 0 Liverpool 2

ALBERT RIERA gave Liverpool an injury scare on the day the Reds lost Xabi Alonso

Graham, please tell me the new Spurs shirt will not see Premier League action.

Reminds me of the story of Leeds when they were "living the dream" of the player who wanted 10k per week, was hoping for 20k and nearly bit their hand off when he was offered 40k straight off the bat......

 
i'm a toon 'fan' (bandwagon 96/97, Shearer,etc..), and if i had a spare 100mil i would not touch them with a 10 foot pole..

the club is cursed. simple as that..

Well ferk me STT - Looks like someones got a barge pole after all!!!

Good news so far for ya buddy - The Bloke that had the distribution rights for that singing fish on a board - Big Mouth Billy Bass for those xmas sales a few years ago seems to have deep pockets and could bail out the Toon.

BARRY MOAT made his fortune out of a singing fish. Now he is close to talking his way into a £100million buy-out of Newcastle. Big Mouth Billy Bass was one the best sellers when Moat was at the helm of North East company Premier Direct.

Yeah I think this year they have gone stupid on how bad the kits are, although I do like Boltons away top.

Weekend wrap up:

Chelsea v Man U Community shield 2-2. Chelsea win 4-1 on pens. Rooney late equaliser forced the shootout which saw Giggs and Evra fluff shots and hand the Blues the first domestic silverware of the season.

Kops Jamie Carragher and Fernando Torres both limped off with minor ankle injuries in Saturday's 2-1 defeat at home to Atletico Madrid.

SEBASTIEN BASSONG hit all the right notes for his new Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp yesterday. The centre-back, who arrived for an initial £8million last week from Newcastle, shone as Greek champs Olympiacos were slain 3-0 at the Lane

Transfer - Liverpool agree deal £20M for former Roma Midfielder Aquilani. Oddly wont play for at least 4-8 weeks from Ankle surgery though.

Aston Villa have confirmed that they have signed Habib Beye from Newcastle on a three-year deal.

Hull face a fight to keep Michael Turner away from Liverpool, who have been linked with Ryan Shawcross, while Gary Cahill is staying at Bolton.

5 days to go now.

Christ!! :o

I remember that darn singing fish. I know someone who received one as a birthday gift. Needless to say, the novelty wore off after about 2 minutes...

So this bloke is a mate of Mike Ashley's huh? That'll go down well with the locals who've wanted to lynch Ashley for the past 12 months. :lol:

Ah well, another lamb to the slaughter eh? ;)

Cheers for wrap up GG. Chelsea too good on penalties. How was Sir Alex, I heard he nearly blew a gasket on the sidelines!


Was stoked to see Cahill re sign for us, means we will hold onto him unleast until janauary :P

Better than that pal - penned a 3 year deal!

Todays Wrap:

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is planning to hold talks with Bayern Munich over a £40million deal for Franck Ribery. Can Chelsea persuade Bayern to sell according to the Sun?

Manchester City are ready to make a final offer of £20million-plus for Everton defender Joleon Lescott, although most papers claim Mark Hughes will look to sign West Ham centre-half Matthew Upson.

Hull have signed Stephen Hunt from Reading.

Stat Fact:

Former Melbourne Victory Keeper Michael Theoklitoros had a howler in Norwich's opener against League 1 Colchester. He let in 7!

Yeah but really a comntract for 3 years is only worth it if no one comes in for him with a bigger offer, and if he continues to grow like he did last year some one will.

Noticed on Fox Sports last night, Lucas Neill still doesn't have a club. He's got West Hams's offer, but he's weighing up two other offers, one of them is believed to be Kewell's side in Turkey. He's taking his time, will settle his decision within the next week.

One of those is reportedly Sunderland. THat's where I'd rather see him play than some arab pub team......

Pim left him out of the Ausiie team last night to concentrate on his offer..


Step back going to Turkey, the only real competion he will have will be champions league stuff and a few games a year, better of staying at wet spam or that big club Sunderland :)

Not Long to go now! Carn the Chels!

Indeed CTB!

Yee Ha! We're off and running......

Chelsea last gasp 2-1 over Hull - Drogba impossible angle slotted it.

Everton 1 - Gooners......6!

Fabregas nets a couple as Gallas Denilson, Vermaelan and Eduardo pick up the rest.

Wolves (welcome) but 0 - West Ham 2

Zola will resign if forced by board to sell top players to clear debt.

Pompey 0 - Fulham 1

Deflection of Zamoras right ar$e cheek!

Villa 0 - Wigan 2

Blackburn 0 - City 2

Top-class finish from "Adebayor Adebayor..... but his Dad Washes Elephants.......... and his mum is a [censored]......."

Bolton 0 - Sunderland 1

Stoke 2 - Burnley 0

Cuppla games on today (tonight your time) Super Sunday:

Spurs V Kop the one to watch

Man U V Brummie = Dont bother. Massacre waiting to happen.

GG

 

Well it's started.....

MEGSON OUT!!!!

What a load of tripe, he bought in a tonne of defenders when we need some creative mids and then moans that they did not play like a team with the confidence to pass it around

YOU PLAYED MCCANN YOU [censored]! worst passer of the ball ever! Can tackle and get niggly and thats about it, long year for the trotters I feel.

Come back BSA we miss you!

Any fellow ManU fans out there with worries about Owen? How he didn't go for a sidestep around the goalie in his last attack was beyond me. He's lost a yard which is expected and the club has been a bit prudent with the wallet but still expected better instinct there in an experienced player.

Makes me ill just thinking it but I reckon Chelsea will be the team to beat this season for the LC.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
