Gennaro Gattuso will sign for Rangers on a free transfer after his contract expires in the summer
Your source for this please? This must mean him and his Scottish wife must be splitting up as her father says his daughter is moving to qatar or dubai in the summer. In saying that the sewer rat and the physcho are just up Rangers street.
Also grudging congratulations to both Spurs and Arsenal. Great to see 2 smug btard teams put in their place, especially Barca. Give it 2 years and Guardiola will be in England, Messi will have moved for a new challenge, and Xavi and Iniesta will be sold because Barca will do their usual and hire the top dutch coach at the time. If arsenal finish the job then get Man Utds name engraved on the Big One again, along with the domestic double. That will be the scouse scum put firmly in their place for SAF to sail off into the sunset and allow the dawning of a new era at OT. Hopefully the takeover at OT will take place, which will put Utd on an entire different level to stty, or the Glazers will use the multi million pound new sponsors money to allow the biggest club in the world to dominate England for another 20 years while collecting more CL titles. Arsenal could do Man Utd a favour that they could regret for years to come. Fabregas will end up at Madrid because the Dutch Barca coach will not want him, prefering to follow previous Dutch coaches methods of propping up a very poor Dutch League with Barca money. Great days ahead for us Stretford Reds.

Eddie Mitchell will quit as owner of Bournemouth, even if the Dorset club win promotion.
The property developer has been hit hard by the recession, and now wants a return on his investment.
He will not call in loans made to Bournemouth or Dorchester, and a possible new chairman could be Harry Redknapp!
Redknapp is said to be interested, but will not quit Tottenham at the moment. If Spurs can get a replacement manager in (such as a Klinsmann or Rijkaard) then maybe he would take over as Bournemouth's owner.'
As a Spurs fan, I laughed my head off at this. .
. .at first. .
However, on a second read through, it kind of makes sense.
Jurgen Klinsmann is still fondly remembered by Spurs fans, and has a good pedigree as a manager. He'd be the ideal candidate to take over from 'Arry.
Bournemouth would do well from having 'Arry as chairman - maybe make the Premier League one day?

There is a strong indication that the 2012 community shield could be played abroad, the premier league were desperate to have a 39th game played abroad, but this never got off the ground, however with the London 2012 olympics, it means that the community shield game cannot take place in Wembley, due to no other sporting event can take place in London at the same time of the olympics.
so you may be seeing the 2012 community shield being played in the middle or far east.'
I've heard that the Stade De France may be a preferred destination for the Charity/Community Shield, but that it may go to Cardiff's Millennium Stadium or Manchester City's Eastlands Stadium.
