Don't know why Tottenham are letting a promising young defender in Steven Caulker go to Cardiff?...he's having a medical there now...
 
Louis from One Direction has signed for Doncaster! WTF?!?!?


Anyway Swansea play their first competitive game of the season tonight, And its a big one as we play Malmo at home in the Europa League second qualifying round...its our first game in Europe since god knows when!

Cardiff offered quite a bit of money over what he's worth but if they can turn down 85 million for Bale you think they'd turn down that. They already lack depth and now they've just sold one of their best depth players, strange.

Do you guys have a Fantasy Premier League League Made? I just made my team a few minutes ago.

I have a team although I keep changing players, I do that every year and it usually ends up costing me my wild card within the first five weeks too. :lol: No doubt someone will make a league on here eventually but no one really wants to run it, it seems, so it's usually left pretty late and then someone steps up. 👍

On non contract terms, although he does have a squad number he won't play any first team games, it's just a publicity stunt. :ouch:
 
Swansea 1 nil up v Malmo at half time thanks to Michu's goal, I would put this in the Europa League but no one has started one for this year yet...

Swansea 4 Malmo 0 full time! :D

Great performance from Swansea - Bony looks like a good signing - should have had a hat-trick.

This game is another stark wake up call for Scottish football... Malmo knocked out Hibs in the previous round 9-0 on aggregrate, including a 7-0 away win at Hibs. And before the game, Hibs fans were confident of a glamour tie against Swansea this week :lol:

I was just going to post something that said pretty much all of this :lol: Swansea were very good indeed. :drool:
 
I was expecting a much tougher match tonight as they destroyed Hibs at home and their are already halfway through their league season (they've played 17 games) was a bit surprised at how easy it was...
 
So the Championship, League one and two new season start this weekend and so does the new season of Scottish football (league one starts tonight in fact with Sheff Utd v Notts County on sky), the Community shield between Man United and Wigan is next week and The Premier League starts again in two weeks...
 
So, what does everyone think? Will Bale go to Madrid this transfer window? I personally think he'll stay for another season at Tottenham, then move.

Looks more and more likely he'll go but it wouldn't be too shocking if he decided to stay.
 
Wenger said that move would make a mockery of UEFA Financial fair play rules, he's got a point!

Yep but I told you all that no one will take any notice of them and nothing will happen. :sly:
 
The new season of Championship and lower league football started, and Wigan thumped Barnsley 4-0 away from home with Holt scoring on his debut, Reading beat Ipswich 2-1 and QPR (with Joey Barton) beat Sheff Wed 2-1
 
Arsenal getting the D right now against Napoli. No Higuain playing and Napoli is still dominating the game right now.
 
Well done to Newport County for winning their first game in the football league :cheers: they hammered Accrington 4-1!

Finished 2-2, could say both arsenals goals were lucky. 1st took a deflection off of Sagna, second was a lucky rebounce from the goalie.
 
So Drogba's record against Arsenal was 13 goals in 15 games and he comes on for Galatasaray against Arsenal just and scores twice!, Gala beat them 2-1

Shame arsenal scored. Had they not and still lost then I believe they would have finished 4th in their own tournament!
 
Rooney not travelling with United squad to Sweden for the game v AIK, this is after Moyes said he would play in the match but United did reject an improved offer from Chelsea earlier....

Moyes said it was because of a "light shoulder" injury.



Looks like Rooney is leaving.

Well, no player is bigger than the club.

I've gone from, please stay, be nice if you stay, do what you want, doors over there, to oh **** off you greedy ****. It's just a joke now.
 
Im still in two minds about it, he is a fantastic player and if he wants to stay then brilliant, but he feels he wants a new challenge which is understandable as he has won everything apart from the FA Cup at United (although you could say that breaking Charlton's record is a challenge), so if he wants to leave he should just put in a transfer request (he still hasn't!) don't forget not only do we get £30 million plus for him we also get £250k off the wage bill...

All true but Chelsea would then be stronger and Man U weaker, hence why he hasn't been sold yet. It's the same as the Suarez situation, no one wants to sell to a direct competitor, so unless they pay way over the odds it's not going to happen. So we'll have lots more days of rumours until one side gives in or someone else makes an offer.
 
I hope Arsenal or anyone else renews their interest in Rooney. The concept of having Rooney and Torres up front next seasom is about as scary as it gets.
