Mackie and smith are going nowhere especially with Hughes not prioritising midfielders and needing to strengthen the squad in depth

Thank you a QPR comment that makes sense

Just as well they are stay,,,,, they are crap.

Mick McCarthy will be sacked this week and new manager will replace him before the next Wolves match. Favourites to succeed him as manager are Neil Warnock, Steve Bruce & a friend of Steve Morgan: Rafael Benitez! Other names linked are Gianfranco Zola, Alan Shearer, Alan Curbishley, Gus Poyet, Paulo Di-Canio, Ian Holloway, Gerrard Houllier, Roy Keane & longshot Carlo Ancellotti!

Or any other random unemployed manager you can think of.

Well if you didnt no ancellotti is at psg on mega money

Not Mourinho?!?

22 Jan 2012 20:03:18
mathias jorgensen isnt comming. he goes to psv. he twitterd he doesnt think he is good enough for the english league and rather plays in the dutch league first

22 Jan 2012 19:13:06
Reading fc

In
Jordan Rhodes 3.5M
Wes Morgan 1M
Jason Roberts loan
Jason puncheon loan
Micheal Jacobs 1.2M
O Vardy 700K

Out
Manset loan Notts County
Church 2M Swansea
Tabb loan Colchester

U wont get RHODES for 3.5mil, so u can cross that one off yor list

Puncheon won't go on loan either. Norwich are lining up £5M bid so try 6

Rhodes wont sign for a championship side PERIOD

22 Jan 2012 18:57:11
wolves to sack mick mccarthy and appoint benitez or zola both of whom are jobless and friends with morgan. Ben

Woo benitez then we can have class signings like lucas.........can't wait and what a fabulos job zola did.

To be fair half of the players that weren't good enough for Liverpool would've been decent at Wolves

I am sick of the muppets on here slagging stoke off i am no a stoke city fan nor a supporter of a certain club I dont see people rubbishing wigan or blackburn or sunderland a team who spend millions on players and do nothing if I am not mistakenwas it not the blackburn fans slagging steve kean off just cause they dont like him and qpr players slagging previos managers off instead of saying it to his face maybe these are the teams that need the attention not just stoke the reason u slag stoke off is because u wish ur own team was were they are and have done on one of the smallest wage budgets in league

Would that be long ball , throw-ins stoke your getting upset about? keep your hair on stoke dont play football, its a combination of rugby and basketball , but its working ! calm down before you lose all your hair!


maximus

Absolute tosh, small budget ? who are u kidding , you are one point above Norwich who's wage bill is approx 1/3 of Stokes and probably 1/10th of Man U and the like.
Stoke have a rich benefactor who is currently subsidizing your rise in premiership, don't get fooled about how good Pulis is,You have guys on £40K/week Crouch, Pennant, Shawcross etc so there has been considerable investment. Without doubt the 2 most successful managers in premier league right now are Lambert & Rodgers since both have shown that they can put out a very competitive team in premier with minimal spending I suspect both will go on to manage a major top 6 side in the future.

I have been a Pompey fan for 35 of my 38 years. I feel embarrassed that our club can not get it's house in order. It's not true all of us Pompey fans wanted the lot down the road go bust, most proper fans want the derbies and banter ect.
It's probably better we are liquidated as each day of not knowing who owns your club, how much money we owe and to who is getting to much.
Whatever happens Pompey will be with me till the day I die, I sincerely hope no other club is treated so poorly by the fa, owners, chief executive and ex manager.

Knowing how i felt when my beloved saints were in trouble. i wouldn,t wish it on any true football fans. even pompey! best of luck. on a personal point got a good feeling for tomorrow connolly 2-1 saints back on top where we belong COYR!

Im a saints fan and hope pompey survive as the derby days are a lot of fun and its good to have a rival club to hate and slag off, brighton and bournemouth just aint the same

22 jan 2012 17:34:43
rvp needs to go to a bigger club, he's brilliant

Mancini will be on the phone right now

22 Jan 2012 16:55:14
hooper silly for not going to saints whats he going to do at celtic win spl 1 year lose it to rangers the next
s**t in europe

at least with saints he be doin well in prem, euro, fa cup and league cup

Fantasy football strikes again.

Saints not in prem, so maybe he wanted to score more goals in europe and push his value up even further?

But not as silly as you are

22 Jan 2012 16:10:12
Howard Webb now changed his strip to light blue.

Spurs better team second half , after going 2-0 down and defoe miss wow!
def a penalty , in stead of blaming the ref , blame your defender that fouled him!

maximus

Hooper would scored the defoe chance

Because he is considerably taller. Not because he is better.

And what about Balotelli's stamp on Parker's head...suppose like Mancini, you didn't see that?!? Man Utd will win the league as City will buckle under the pressure, No class whatsoever.

22 Jan 2012 15:26:52
Pompey are set to be deducted 10 points

Bye bye pompey, pompey bye bye! hope they do a plymouth

And if they do, I hope that along with us they rise again and kick your sorry a*ses. Bryher Pilgrim

The treble in Scotland is nothing to be proud of and as for me knowing nothing about Scottish football I've seen Celtic play over 100 times 6 old firm games I follow Celtic & Southampton as much as I love Celtic I'm sorry you are a much bigger club but at this moment of time what counts Saints are playing the better football Good luck to Celtic & Saints this season

Why even bother having a league in scotland then if the players cant be proud of winning it, thats a narrow minded thing to say for players that have played in scotland through the years, champions league winners, world cup finalists, and euro finalists, you dont sound like a celtic fan you sound like a bitter rangers fan that wont win anything in the foreseeable future!!

CELTIC ARE MILES BIGGER THAN SOUTHAMPTON EVER WILL BE AND HAVE A PROUD RECORD UNLIKE THE LACK OF 1 OF SOUTHAMPTON.....LOL!!

I feel sorry for people who suffer from tourette syndrome

Southampton miles bigger than celtic ,
24 teams in our league !
12 in the tin pot league!
play each other 3/4 times , its like southampton playing accrington stanley 3/4 times then macclesfield!
guess who would win ? any way
southampton are bigger than celtic , they have 11 letters in there name, celtic have only 6 ! fact !

maximus

Southampton won the european cup in 67, oh no wait..........

Brilliant post Maximus! That's the best argument I've seen so far...COYR

Ok, here goes

I have very good information that Huddersfield are doing a deal with Celtic for the transfer of Jordan Rhodes in the summer.

Nigel Clibbens has apparently had talks with Celtics Peter Lawell about a link up between the clubs.

This deal would see Rhodes transfer to Celtic in the close season, the fee is still being discussed!

As part of the deal Huddersfield will have access to Celtics young players and fringe players with Celtic picking up the majority of wages. I think this would be a great deal for Huddersfield, rather than a big one off fee, a regular flow of players would be better in the long term.

Will tell more as i find out!

___________

Good lord I hope we don't form a link with Celtic, would seem strange to link up with an english championship level club that play in a league that compares to englands league 1!

So its still a step up to huddersfield then yeah?

YE DEFFO A STEP UP...LOL!!

The Glasgow Tax dodgers are desparate to get rid of Jelavic

22 Jan 2012 11:48:54
Don't for one minute think stfc are getting tubes but we were paying Clarke 6k a week,so to mock our ability to offer him decent money is foolish. Don't think Bournemouth could pay that.

Tubes who? And Bournemouth have offered Marc Pugh 15k a week and are paying their left back charlie daniels 13k a week so they prob could! Do you not read papers in Swindon? They were taken over by a russian billionaire in November hence all the new signings, new ground and bidding for every striker who sits on the bench in the championship!

22 Jan 2012 11:30:45
Some people live in a dream world since when dose CMS choose his team mates I always believed it was the manager.

Gus Poyet stated that he believes he will have two new players before the transfer window closes let's wait and see who they are

22 Jan 2012 11:02:54
WARNING! If the strikers playing for your club score two or more goals in a game then the deluded Leicester fans will say they are linked with him.

This is a disturbing trend, managers take your forwards off after scoring

22 Jan 2012 10:52:30
Mick Mccarthy wont be sacked yet, but its about time he was

What sort of manager would you get to replace him? Hardly a club to get a top proven manager are you? Be grateful you have a manager of the quality of Mc Carthy.

22 Jan 2012 10:42:02
who else thinks henry winter chats a load of poney did you see him backing torres

Just one final post regarding Celtic and its fan base.
When Celtic got to Seville in UEFA cup final we took over 250,000 fans, we won both FIFA and UEFA Fair Play Awards. Celtic fans abroad are called the FRIENDLY FANS Even Man UTD, Liverpool etc.. with all their fans would struggle to take that many fans abroad. Doubt even Barca or Real Madrid could either. hail hail Timalloy

Wow do you want a blue peter badge for telling us that pointless comment, you got fans but your an average team now, not the old celtic in O'neills day

If you took 250k to seville,I'm a chinaman,stop telling porkies :-) .

Mr.Roller Coaster

Well hello mr win jip!!!!!! clown

250,00 fans, my family went , try 70,000 , stop bs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why on earth would Matt Tubbs, who is being tracked by Championship clubs, opt to player for a lesser club than Crawley? Behave.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lesser club that Crawley.

Ha ha, now you are joking. Crawley is still a conference team punching above its weight. Get your facts right. Your tin pot club doesn't even compare with Swindon

Crawley will be back where they be long soon enough i mean cant even compare them too plymouth,swindon or even accrington stanley thats how serious i cant take them

Who are a galvanised tinpot of a club! Bryher Pilgrim

22 Jan 2012 08:35:14
I feel for portsmouth fans they desevre better, im sure u will be ok no other fans should get peasure in they slide as it could be your team next. To many clubs spending more than they earn. Its wrong

No they dont - they took the glory when running up bad debt....they now need to take the pain.......COYRs

When they pay their debts off perhaps people will respect them till then nothing will change should be more than 10 points anyway

22 Jan 2012 08:21:20
C sutton came from norwich city youth set up. then he Had a spell at chelsea . Then did very well at blackburn before he went to easy street . When that celtic fan on here start they nx bitching spate with saints fans get your facts right first
