Steven Gerrard to retire from football at the end of next season (2012/2013 season)!(29)(34)The rate he's going it'll be sometime this season. Quality player but desperately unlucky with injuries.To be honest be a shame to see he not in game and ending it with out winning prem or more than he has think it might be hanging his
Boots up for England first tho and then see where he is from there if he dose call it a dayDon't be stupid. He's going to come back stronger than ever. Just watch this space...How do you know that then Dr. Ruth? Everytime he's out for a spell he comes back "stronger than ever" and promptly breaks down again. He's going down the same road as Dyer. He's absolute quality but i fear for his future.No he is not coming back stronger...the talk in the town is that he is almost finished & it may be before Christmas.I thought he had already retired?Whats with this "coming back stronger"he clearly is near the end of his career and cant keep doing it

afc bournemouth youngster josh carmicheal is being lined up for a sensetional move to manchester united in january, the 16 year old made his debut on the weekend and is already being compared to the likes of micheal essien(5)(21)You must be outta ya mind you blithering idiotWhy post calling him , how do u know that man u r not going to look at him end of day he is only 16 man u could get him for next to nothing drop him in reserves see how he gets on and if don't make it he can just be sold on if u ask me your the person and no nothing about the game just have a look at players that started at man u and now play for different sides list is endless why would man u not take a punt low cost low risk low cost high reward ( if he turns out to be a good player )What, because it is Bournemouth they cant produce decent youth players?. I am a Saints fan everyone knows we have produced quality youth players over the years, so why cant Bournemouth and other clubs like them do the same, we sold AOC for 12 million after he had one good season in league 1, so you dont know that teams like Man u are not interested in this lad so keep your comments to yourself

VERY HOT GOSSIP! Raphael Benitez has been approached to take over at Wolves for the rest of the season. This would be in a caretaker capacity as owner Steve Morgan plans to shock the football world with a massive appointment next summer. Although a good season under Benitez could well see him land the job himself. This follows Morgans despair at the capitulation at the hands of QPR on Saturday. McCarthys days are very numbered and a poor performance at Morgans home town team of Liverpool on Saturday will see the end of MM reign at Molineux. You heard it here first. Get your mortgage on this one as its nailed on.(20)(35)I can't see Rafa working with that dross of a squad.
I think Rafa is happy living with his family on the Wirral enjoying his £12m worth of compensation from Liverpool and Inter.
I still think Blackburn could be a destination for Rafa with their apparent big Cheque book.Why not? he certainly worked with plenty of Dross in his time at liverpooh.BLACKBURN.... get out, a joke to the prem, lucky win over the gonners..... no money and a average attendance of 20,000.... get real divIf Benitez didn't want the Villa job? why on earth would he take the job at Wolves? what on earth are you smoking!Hope steve morgans got a £200m transfer kitty!!Rafa did want the villa job you person we turned him down due to wages and the huge transfer budget he wantedAnd he has stated that he doesn't want a return to management... failUtter rubbish Mccarthys done a great job for Wolves.
ITFC supporterTell you what you put your mortgage on it, then let us all know. There is every chance McCarthy could go if results go pearshaped-but there is no chance of Benitez coming because he would want big players and a big budget...and WOLVES WILL NOT SPEND!!
19 Sep 2011 14:49:54
Tommy Smith loan to Watford!(12)(21)Being a friend of Tom's i can tell everyone if he's not getting a game he wants Vicarage Road and quick! Thats a FACT.Big story this. Tommy wants first team football and wants to come home.

Max Keiser has hinted at big news coming from Sheffield Wednesday. Unfortunately this news is not good for most Sheffield football fans. Milan, McCabe and the Art Rooney II consortium have been locked in talks over a sale and merger of Sheffields clubs. The new club will be known as Sheffield Steel (Rooney wants Steelers, but was unaware of the existing ice hockey side)
The investment figures are huge , including £120 Million for a new stadium and an unlimited playing staff budget.
Please don't let this happen!!(6)(23)What a load of B@@@@@@s, and I don't care about either Sheffield team whats next Villa and Birmingham City, Man Utd & City ??There was a rumour that walter smith will be asked to manage this clubWill never happen,fans from both clubs would not stand for it.BLADES FOREVER.I am a swindon fan and this is just total BS, no two clubs of the history and stature of Wednesday and UTd would ever allow this to happen, neither would the fans.....Will never happen - Mandaric will only sell if SWFC are in the Championship for 2012/13. McCabe not selling up down the road either.

19 Sep 2011 10:25:13
Dave Jones to take over as Bristol City manager this week, the only thing holding up the deal is Cardiff compensation, as he is currently on gardening leave.(20)(23)What no comments from leicester,or cardiff fans bristol city will bounce backThere's just no pleasing you is there?.....if we comment you whine, if we dont comment you want to know why?...get this into your thick skull bonehead. the world does not revolve around Brizzle City, as a Leicester fan i don't really care at all what happens down at Ashton gate, that's your uninteresting business, i'm interested in my clubs news, that's all....and yet you replied :/Of course i replied you plank!....look at the sentences and the words in them....Tell me, do you understand how words work?
19 Sep 2011 08:36:33
dave jones spotted by myself leaving ashton gate, rumour is millen stepping down to assistant to dave jones?(19)(22)I hope millen leaves and we keep wigley as our assistant due to his links with england u21

18 Sep 2011 22:47:46
Former Norwich striker Oli Johnson is set to sign for league one side Walsall on a deal until January(14)(7)Hope so, the lads a good player, he deserves regular football somewhere, natural goalscorer, well he was few year ago in the amatuer league when he bagged 9 against us!Of course he is still a norwich player. Good player. I wish him well.
18 Sep 2011 22:27:24
Bristol citys nicky maynard wants to leave in january no matter what cost said the manager.(20)(17)He had his chance, Southampton will go elsewhere in the window. Expect a PL fringe youngster to get on the bus.
18 Sep 2011 21:33:41
Leon Clark Will Sign For Chesterfield Fc , He Has Had Superb Start At Chesterfield , Scoring 4/5 goals and scoring a hat-trick againt carlisle (CUFC)(7)(17)With Leon Clarke scoring regulalry i would imagine more clubs will be in for him in January.Have Chesterfield got the money to pay the wages, you are only paying 40% of his wages at the moment and Town forked out a substancial signing on fee which they will want to recoup.... I can see him going to a championship club for around 300K
18 Sep 2011 21:28:55
Sheffield Wednesday set for another takeover as current owner Milan Mandaric looks to cut his losses.(9)(17)Any takeover will depend on where Sheffield Wednesday finish this season.
Milan will want to get more money back than he put in, so if Sheffield Wednesday get to the Championship it's very likely he will sell up job done. If no promotion then he'll stick it out for one more season.
There are a few interested parties - expect more movement after Christmas.Great newes its trueNo body wanted them before, so nobody will want a poor team,with a run down ground and fickle fans..Don't expect to see any movement on this until the new year, chaps. It is happening but as said depends on where the club is at the end of the season. Also Milan's health is poor.
18 Sep 2011 20:39:40
brent was one who got risdale to get reid sacked so it looks like risdale could be staying carl fletcher could be manager for 3 games.(7)(11)To all plymouth fans get rid of ridsdale

leeds fan not fit and proper to ne in charge
of any football club RIDSDALE OUT
18 Sep 2011 19:45:01
Manchester City are in talks to bring three players to the Etihad for January. Esteban Cambiasso could join after City have already struck a deal with the Argentina midfielder. Mancini is still keen on bringing some experience in their spine and sees Cambiasso as somebody who can change a game. Experienced defenders Giuseppe Biava from Lazio and Felipe from Fiorentina are also interesting Mancin.(17)(12)Yes very average players you have there! This post is a boo hoo we couldnt beat Fulham. Get a life.Cambiasso - has always been known as someone who can change a game.... not!You really are very dim and obvioulsy know nothing about football!
18 Sep 2011 19:41:24
Manchester United will hold talks with Barry Bannan from Aston Villa over a possible move for January. Alex Ferguson is keen on bringing in another midfielder and the young Scottish playmaker could see a £10 million deal struck in January. 20 year old Peter Pawlett from Aberdeen could also see a pre contract deal struck in order for a three year contract to be signed for next summer. 23 year old Marc McAusland from St Mirren and young East Sirling striker Jordyn Sheerin is also causing interest from Ferguson.(9)(28)I'd snap their hands off....he was usless yesterday and left us wide open with his lack of defencive qualities, poor disicipline and un willingness to track back.Bannan was fantastic vs Newcastle.
There is no way he'd leave Villa when he owes Villa so much. Big Eck puts him on more than even Albrighton!.
Bannan is worth more £20m atm anyways.
Bannan still has 4 1/2 years left on his contact anyway.That cos he at villa! Man u would look at what needs working on and make him a better player but if that all he missing from his game it can be sorted before getting on his back how about u look at how he being looked after at your club if u can see what wrong why can your back room staff not ????Bannan £20m your having a laugh, saw him at Elland Road last season and he is average at best, i agree Man Utd do turn good players into outstanding players (smalling) but they is not that talent there with BannanBarry Bannan was at leeds lest year and he was rubbish. Why on earth would Man U sign such a carp player?Crap u sure man utd would sort him out pace vision he has got something there trust me on that and smalling was always going to be good but man u do take players to next level , ye ye u watch him and he was crap what did he have round him don't talk stupid loads of players been loaned out to lower poor sides and not done anything but get them playing with class And it rubs off welbeck , cleverly playing with class has brought them on no endLook ive seen this boy afew times and he has all the potential to be world class trust me his vision for a pass is amazing he will go far but i cant see him leaving villa just yet..Way things going at man utd tho it only place for a player like him to be he will get a game will be pushed and worked on what is needed what he will not get at villaYou utter muppet villa have always been known for producing some good young players villa.s youth is exceptional there youth team crushed arsenals youth 10 .1 last season stop talking rubbish they have some well respected football men who really do work hard on producing talented players.

James McFaddon to the Posh on loan for the rest of the season.(3)(33)He is on a free for a start, and is training with everton next week to prove his worth but also has an offer from wolves which he will accpept if everton dont offer him oneFor starters he is on trial at birmingham and is going to sign a new contract thereFor starters one of the fisrt two replys is wrongHe's training with Birmingham, not sure if he'll be offered a contract or not. He won't got to Posh. He'll see himself as too big for a club of that size (rightly or wrongly!)At the Posh game in the main stand on Saturday,Barry Fry still has connections with the Brum.If he's a free agent and not signed for anyone , how can he be on loan? Who is he on loan from ??
18 Sep 2011 19:56:11
Mr Brent the man trying to buy Plymouth has suggested The Club try to entice Paul Sturrock back to the Club after the axing of Peter Reid. Brent is trying to steady the ship off the pitch and hopes Sturrock can steady things on it.(7)(17)Can't see Sarfend being happy then...
A thought - wouldn't Ridsdale like to offer his old chum David Jones a job?
18 Sep 2011 19:38:06
all the leeds storys are true simon gryson will be in charge of blackburn by weekend gus poyet is going to replace him.(13)(45)Im a Saints fan and totally neutral to this....Why would Gus Poyet leave Brighton for a disorganised shambles with no money like Leeds? Simon Grayson leaving is understandable...he has been dealt a poor hand and its showing in the results.
Next you will be saying that Nigel Adkins will be taking over Liverpool...which as a scouser might suit them....but we have the best and Brighton the second best managers in the Championship....you all seem to forget that Loic has to play a part in the thought process. Dream on and you will be pleasantly confused...oh you already are...ha..ha..ha {Ed003's Note -I would beg to differ about your choice of managers in the championship}It seems that someone has a bee in their bonnet about Poyet, thus far he's going to replace Sven in Leicester, Grayson in Leeds and 'Arry at Spurs, he's busier than James Beattie! Do people really think he's the new messiah? He's done a good job with Brighton, but that doesn't suddenly turn him into the next Fergie.Grayson's staying put - Leeds can't go up anyway as Master Bates would have to declare Leeds' finances to the Premier League. Top 10 for them, but no promotion.I am a Leeds fan and Poyet will not join he has the money and the backing at Brighton, not a guarantee if he moves to Leeds (With KB in charge) If Grayson gets the Blackburn job then good luck and he will be missed but i think Leeds have the making of a good team and with a fresh outlook this could possibly help leeds (or may just hinder)I don't believe this - but, just to point out, Bates & Poyet don't get onLike hed leave brighton for leeds.Poyet is staying. If Grayson goes then Roeder is lined up. If Kean goes, then Billy Davies will join Blackburn
18 Sep 2011 19:33:57
Sergio Aguero has been linked with AC Milan after his wife told the Argentina forward that she is struggling with life in Manchester. {Ed003's Note - Rubbish)(17)(40)

Wayne Bridge is in talks with Sunderland over a possible deal for January.(16)(16)
18 Sep 2011 18:27:53
hull city will try to sign andy king and cris weale from leicester in january(7)(28)Foxes Fan here....I shall not know who to support at this rate !! Andy King in your dreams Chris Weale maybe ???Hull couldn't afford King and Sven wouldn't sell him, unless he's going as part of the infamous Matt Mills loan deal? (it seems that people are intent on making up silly stories) as for Weale, unless a new GK arrives, he'll be staying put too.Weale's not out of the question, but King??....IF he leaves the Foxes, rest assured it would only be for a club in the higher division...Hull? not a chance!
18 Sep 2011 18:16:34
Dave Jones will be unvieled as the Bristol City manager by Wednesday, he held talks today at ashton gate with Steve Lansdown and Colin Sexstone. You heard it here 1st.(20)(17)Nope, Ridsdale is trying to get him in as Reid's replacement at Plymouth.
Alan Curbishley or Glenn Roeder will take over at Ashton Gate.
18 Sep 2011 17:53:43
steve cotterill will get the sack tomorrow and billy davies is in the frame(15)(23)Portsmouth are never going to get a named manager whilst they are still deep in the sh@tWorse thing for a club with little or no money is to get a little annoying (not very good) manager like Davis in. He left his last post after falling out with the board over lack of finances. He is a clown
18 Sep 2011 15:40:05
AFC Bournemouth will complete the permanent signing of wesley Thomas in january after the striker scored 2 goals in 3 games(16)(4)
18 Sep 2011 14:34:44
Bristol City are talking to West Brom about taking Gareth McAuley on loan to gain fitness. The Northern Irish defender has not made an appearance for the Baggies after suffering with gastroenteritis since pre-season. City tried to sign McAuley on a free from Ipswitch in the summer but the defender opted for the Premier League club. Barnsley and Bristol City both tried to sign Craig dawson on loan in the summer but he impressed Roy Hodson enough to stay and fight for a place at the Hawthornes.(7)(12)Those very confident and cocky BCFC fans from the summer seem to have crawled back under their rocks and hidden!
Who's top of the league?
We obviously didn't need your over-rated striker!...Look you person just let the season carry on bristol city will turn it around and the teams that have beaten us will pay look at when city lost 0.2 to bristol rovers at the gate then we beat them at there ground 2.4
18 Sep 2011 13:30:16
burnley are set to bring robbie blake back to burnley on loan.(9)(15)This is true i got told of owen coyles son (Owen coyle)Its defenders we need but blake would be great claret si
18 Sep 2011 13:01:07
Plymouth Argyle have today sacked Manager Peter Reid.(22)(3)I think its disgusting that they have sacked reid, hope he manages to get the money they haven't paid him for the last 6 months.... how can you motaivate a team who aren;t even getting their wages... If they dont sort it out soon the fans will be in for a shocker when they go to blue square and fold....
18 Sep 2011 12:20:07

18 Sep 2011 10:27:24
Steve McClaren and his coaching team are returning to holland with FC Twentie. People(24)(13)Please let this be true.... I'll buy the tickets.Hope he doesn't go by ferry...it'll probably go down just as we will if he stays much longer.Good, they can have the useless tr@t. Forest need some stability and quick.Although billy rocked the boat often, at least it wasnt sinking. HTBGOD i hope this is true
18 Sep 2011 10:18:25
Robin Van Persie will almost certainly leave Arsenal in January.
This is both because of Arsenals poor form and his desire to win silvereware.
Clubs interested:
Real Madrid, Inter Milan, AC Milan and PSG.(28)(13)Yes agree the club don't want to spend on quality players he will go if theyt don't sign quality players in january.They should sign
Samba , Goetze ,Marvin,Benzenma ,Fellaini ,bainesGet rid of the rubbish players Frimpong squillaci arshavin denilson and all the other S players who give nothing for the team and just play for the mone and no the club thats why arsenal will never win a trophy again.Arsenal will never get samba , goetze , marvin , benzema , fellaini or baines if they don't have any decent players to start with.
Arsenal to finish 7-10th this season.

Liverpool will sell Martin Skrtel,Maxi Rodriguez and Dirk Kuyt replacing them with Gary Cahill,Edin Hazard and a shocking £35m return for Fenando Torres. Jack Wilshere remains a long term target. {Ed025's Note - did you hear this on planet zarg news?..(16)(21)Cahill,Wilshere & Torres are possible.
Hazard isn't mate .. (i don't like liverpool at all but it does seem possible).Ed 2, brilliant mate, are they really that thick these pudlers, the best they can do now are with the likes of henderson, carroll & adam {Ed025's Note - the three of them went missing today.....kenny is going to put their faces on milk cartons..Eden hazard is arsenals and so is cahill
17 Sep 2011 21:32:43
Martin O'Neil will replace Steve McClaren at Forest before Xmas(15)(37)No way would O'Neil go to Forest .....lolI know that all us forest fans are praying for this but it's not gonna happen when he could easily be managing a top 4 prem side. Nope I'm afraid McUseless will cling on for dear life cus if he gets sacked let's face it he'll never manage in English football again.Forest wouldn't be able to afford MON, they only got McClaren because he was desperate for a job and was therefore cheap. McClaren will walk out before he gets sacked, expect it any time, he'll cite a lack of support and broken promises but he'll be off asap. Like i said... back to Div One for Forest.U know this is a lie (a boring lie at that) but if u actually believe it the I'm afraid ur a very stupid person. If we lose mcclaren the likely person to get the job would b someone within the club like the youth coach or pleat lolI remember before the season started that you were going up etc how things chance, you are rubbish, no money who would want that job!! oh i know steven mclarenI don,t know the answer to forest problems on the field.McCAREN has no idea either.bringing in a big name manager doesn't always work it hasn't this time. ken fowkes a forest fanLeicester fan in piece.
O'neill as already said he would not ever manage u guys as he would not like unset Leicester supporters.
I do feel u should get rid of that wolly with the brolly
All the best for the rest of the season and I hope Leicester and forest are playing prem football as it would be nice to see two east midlands teams in the prem.MON wont work for Doughty the saviour......NEXT!Martin o neil coming to wolves mick to get the sack mick going to forest after wolves loosing 3 0 to qpr {Ed025's Note - be careful what you wish for..Leicester fan in peace (piece)
Where did you hear this?? because MON has stated many times, on both tv and radio, that he would love to manager ForestMartin needs big funds - see Villa - so Forest will not turn to him.The board at Forest will not risk any BIG investments because their spending is still too huge for Doughty to keep bailing them out.If Forest aren't prudent now,they will go bust so they are right to choose a mid range manager on tight budgets.It,s called reality guys - get used to it.Forest are more likely to get in Brian Laws than O'neill as he will be more of a yes man for the board as they try to cut the debts.MON has left every club like Mclaren.
He will make Forest into a squad with man city style wages. & your club will go broke lol.Can't see Martin O'Neill wanting to work with financial restrictions at a club, despite the fact he has affinity with the Reds.
Doughty will stick with McLaren - his head is on the line if McLaren is failure as well.MON would be an awful replacement, he has almost bankrupted Villa, alot of the fans still want him back but if only they knew the truth behind him leaving.
17 Sep 2011 20:48:20
Ryan Dickson will sign in January Uwe Rosler says he will not sign anyone on loan(9)(5)Surplus to requirements at southampton as no way near good enough......league 1 his level. Saints have Dan Harding, Danny Fox and Ben Reeves ahead of him. Even Joseph Mills was before he was sold to reading....please take himAsked the man himself on Twitter and he said it was rubbishHe said to me it was right!
17 Sep 2011 20:48:09
Nottingham Forest to hold a Board Meeting on Monday Morning to discuss the very poor start. McClaren, Loan signings, and possible replacements on the Agenda.(15)(7)Yeah his replacementI think you should keep him he's doing a fantastic job ........You BLUES!!!!!What a load of BS, the board meeting about signings, tell me what are you on?
Its because of this board we didnt make any real signings, season after season!May be thats why there having a Board meeting, to review the actuall lack of activity. Why do people get so angry on here.My guess is he has until December to improve or the board will sack him, as with Billy they are fed up with media moaning, Brian Laws would be the boards choice if they sack him as he is seen more as a yes man as they look to cut the debt.

What a load of rubish this is(25)(32)
17 Sep 2011 13:32:30
TALKSPORT have just mentioned that Coventry have inquired about the possibility of loaning Eirik Holmen Johansen of Man City, and have also contacted Chelsea about a season-long loan for Josh McEachran(13)(11)You can't do a season long loan in the emergency loan window, there's a 93 day limit.Also MacEachan is in the matchday squad - if he was available then every club in championship / europe and bottom half premiership would want him - honestly would either he or Chelsea choose relegation certainties in Coventry?

Why are Asian players playing in Malaysia Japan etc not allowed to play in the English leagues.Most have to play in Holland or Germany first ,WHY?.
Surely that's a restriction of trade ,after all Doctors ,Nurses etc are recruited from ALL over the world. {Ed002's Note - It is nothing to do with being Asian, it is to do with eligibility for a work permit - and it applies to all non-EU players. There are some pretty simple rules that need to be met and there is a clause where the rules can be waived for exceptional talents. There are many players owned by English clubs who are out on loan awaiting a work permit before they can make the move to England - these include players from South America and many of the old Eastern Bloc countries and states.}(1)(4)Too many foreign players over here now from grass roots level to international players. We need to be able to bring our young players through to help our international teams before worrying about
more foreign players.Dead right,look at Wales,Scotland,the Irish teams and England,not enough really good young players of our own being given a chance.Why then if you want so called British talent to come through,are the likes of most premier league/championship teams signing players from europeYeah why,you tell us,you seem to have some great answer to this.

Wayne Bridge is set to turn down Nottingham Forest and Southampton to join Burnley. Eddie Howe is keen on bringing in some more defenders and sees Bridge on a two month loan deal possibly an option.(5)(35)Bridge would never turn down the club he surports [saints] for burnley...reality check neededBridge will not be coming to Southampton who have an abundance of left backs. I for one would like to see Ben Reeves given a chance.Bloody hell will people stop linking us with Bridge, just because he played for us, his Mum & Dad live just outside Winchester and he supports us doesn't mean either party are interested in a deal as of now. Southampton have four left backs - Danny Fox, Dan Harding, Ryan Dickson and Ben Reeves. No chance of Saints signing a left back, especially one that is on 90k a week.Cant see that happenning although "little eddie" does need a defence. Mind you the star striker who they reckon was worth 6m dont appear to be doing a lot does he? ;-)

SSN reports that Steve McClaren has told a local radio station that he is confident of bringing in an impact loan signing next week, a source within the club suggests that it's Matt Mills from Leicester City.(9)(42)Hardly an
impact signing.. a 5m fester flopHe is going to southamptonI'm sure an impact sub is someone who will get you a goal. Not a defenderExactly why would Leicester loan out their skipper who they bought this summer for £5.5m?Why would Leicester get rid of easily the best defender outside the premier league and a player they signed for 5million?Is this the second or third club Matt Mills is being loaned to? ...this is just a hunch, but i suspect someone is winding you up, good job you all spotted it though ehA player can only play for a maximum of 2 teams in a season and Matt Mills has played for both reading & leicester so unless he goes back to reading this is impossibleMills has not played for Reading this season so off to Southampton it is then...Brighton put a bid in for him on their way out the door, they got totally outclassed by Leicester (22 shots to 7) and figured they might as well pick up Mills on their way home, oddly enough, Mills laughed at them... CMS came in swaggering, and left looking like a pillock, i guess he showed how right Sven was to pull out of signing him, good times.

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is set to tell Joleon Lescott and Garteh Barry that they will be transfer listed in January. Gael Clichy has also had an arguement with the Italian over team selection and will be made available in January. Clichy is wanted already by Manchester United as Alex Ferguson is keen on improving his defence for the latter part of the season. Owen Coyle is keen on bringing England defender Lescott on loan in January whilst Barry is interesting Tottenham.(7)(43)Lescott will probably go to wolves or villaSpurs don't want or need barry, both parker and sandro are better plus we have young tom carroll who its getting better and better, and then theirs tom huddlestone....three players who are streets better and one kid who is going to be a hell of a lot better as a player than barryLescott to Villa & Barry back to Villa with Milner probably.More changes at city? until they settle,they will never achieve what they want,money is too easily thrown around at that club and it isnt the way.Clichy to utd definitely believable and will probably happen

The former QPR player was quoted this week as saying that he would like to move back to London and Palace boss Dougie Freedman, is set to take advantage on signing the defender on loan until end of December then striking a full time contract in January.(10)(11)This is rubbish. I listened to a liveBBC radio lancashire interview with ian Evitt this week and he is adamant that he wants to finish his career at Blackpool and negotiate a new deal to make this happen. He also said that his family are well settled in the area and don't want to moveEvatt is staying ar Blackpool. Negotiating a new deal and not going anywhere else.

Bristol City look set to bid for George Boyd from Peterborough United. Boys is keen on getting out of London Road after a fall out with Darren Ferguson. Boyd could move to Ashton Gate on loan until January where a move could be struck permanently.(7)(18)His boyd better than clarkson can he score 6 goals in 2reserve gamesWhy would boyd go to poor old brissle when fergie 2 has just told local press hes the best player in championship,ya aviv a laff!I don't support either team, but Boyd would be daft to join Bristol City, when in reality if he continues his good start to the season then the likes of West Ham, Southampton and Middlesbrough will probably come knocking. Don't think Peterborough would sell to a fellow relegation candidate either, plus the fact he'd cost around £3m-ish?Why would Fergie and Boyd have a falling out when Fergie cant stop singing his praises, and recently labelled him as one of the Championship's best players. Bristol wouldnt be able to afford him and even if he did go he would be totally wasted there. And when will Peterborough get out of this relegation favourite bracket, and I guarantee Peterborough will punish plenty of teams in the Championship and stay up. Doncaster, Barnsley and Watford to go down.

16 Sep 2011 19:00:53
Leeds United are being linked with a move for Stevenage winger Lawrie Wilson.
The versatile midfielder has impressed at Broadhall Way this season, most recently staying in Boro's 5-1 victory over Sheffield Wednesday in midweek.
Reports in The Sun claim Simon Grayson was scouting the player at both that and their previous home game, with the Leeds United boss thought to be impressed by the 24-year-old's performances on both occasions.
Wilson has scored once in his eight appearances this season, and was an integral part of Stevenage's promotion campaign from Npower League Two last season.
It was a summer transfer window to forget for Simon Grayson at Elland Road, with the Leeds United boss failing to secure the services of a handful of targets.
The Leeds United manager is clearly evaluating his options for January, with Wilson now emerging as a legitimate target for the history-steeped club.(13)(4)

Keith Millen is about to be replaced by Martin O'Neill. Monday (19th) Millen will step down and O'Neill will take charge. Keith has been asked to take control for the Leeds game. The pressure is to much for him and he feels he should of waited a few more years before going into management. Martin will sign a rolling 12 month deal in the knowledge that he will be able to rebuild the club. Nicky maynard will sign his contract once Martin O'Neill has started his reign(6)(42)I believe it when i see it millen steps down and martin oneill takes overMartin o'neil would never manage bristol city ya plank like saying fergusan going to manage plymouthOh dear never mind you might wake up in a minute, probably for the best anyway, O'Neill is likely to spend anymoney you have and some you don't then walk off in a hissy fitAll you Bristol fans are so deludedOh thanks for that, I have not laughed so much in ages!!!Total delusion? I'm not sure treatment is available for that!Ha ha now thats funny as if
