Manchester United have put Howard Webb on the transfer list.
Why put him on the list, he gets more points than any other player for utd
04 Jan 2012 22:33:06
You BHA fans make me laugh......it's like Poyet has re-modelled the whole fanbase (didn't take long) on himself; ignorant, cheating, hypocrites.
04 Jan 2012 22:29:03
Spurs in heaven.Do you think Kyle wanna sit on a bench when he can play regular football?My thought says not!A pretty good sell-on-clausel for sure of course.45-50% if Harry wants so...
04 Jan 2012 22:27:04
avb is gonna build up the squad by buying these players:
cavani - 36m
kaka - 22m
cahil - 7m
micha richards - 14m
rodwell - 20m
alvaro (fc porto) - 9m
hulk (fc porto) - to take him out of contract is 41m and a fee of 43m overall 84m
04 Jan 2012 22:25:02
United to sign-
Kaka, neymar and sandro
Neymar's pretty much a barca player, if santos sold neymar to utd santos would have to give barca 20 mill
04 Jan 2012 22:23:59
Pederson of Blackburn will move to wolves for £4m after he was offered much higher wages by Wolves.
04 Jan 2012 22:22:57
Holden of Bolton Wanderers was today seen entering exiting the Wolves training ground in compton.

josh king from man u to pne no chance fergie snr wont be doing any favors for the whites after the fergie jnr saga made me laugh though
04 Jan 2012 22:00:19
Now why would Charlton want Jason Scotland and sell their skipper Johnnie Jackson to Ipswich, I don't think so.
Because we don't want him
04 Jan 2012 21:57:19
All this talk about norwich makes me laugh..... U mean to tell me there are actual Norwich supporters
Only now there in the prem
You obviously aren't a football supporter,if you were you would know we fill the ground every game.Wind your neck in pal!
04 jan 2012 21:30:17
norwich city trophy room was broken into. police are looking for a deep pile green carpet
.....and a few cookery books.
04 jan 2012 21:28:25
obviously your football knowledge is very limited. norwich had 1 season in europe. i remember when we played st etienne, they had not lost at home for about 3 years and we thrashed them.
Stop living in the past if you can call 1goal in your little history your past
04 Jan 2012 20:53:52
Lee Barnard to join Bournemouth until the end of the season as he cannot get into the saints squad with his problems with manager Nigel Adkins and his off the field problems. The cherries are keen to bolster the front line and is well known with the players and management as he played with flahavan Francis Barratt Malone and manager lee Bradbury is keen to sign him up pretty quick as other teams are keen to sign him too
He is out injured for the next two months or so...
Dont be daft saints are light up front right now as it is
04 Jan 2012 21:19:54
Reason norwich maybe signing naughton for 2 mil is cos hes only got 6months left on his contract and hes barely played a game for spurs in the 2 or so years hes been there. You cant sell a player for profit with such a short length of time, especially when hes barely played for you.
04 Jan 2012 21:01:08
Who ever you are who posted on 03 jan 2012 at 17:28:30 you are very wrong and very stupid about the message you posted . you say dont pretend you played well brighton when we clearly was all over you for 90 mins . yes replays do look like it crossed the line but at the end of the day its the refs call . Also you say 3 of your players missed from 5 yards out im sorry but thats 3.3 to me if they could finish that is . bad game for southampton except it
Except it what?
^^ He fell into Southampton docks
04 Jan 2012 20:58:44
No permanent signings at Yeovil town until they know what league they will be next season.

Bent to have medical if they argee terms
04 Jan 2012 20:35:50
wolves will go down unless they sign big or get gone of mad mick
"Get gone mad mick"?....it has'nt taken long for you lot of backstabbers to stick the knife in to your manager has it?.....only a few months ago when the season started when you were all singing his praises and shouting what a good manager he was ( i actually think he still is), if he goes tell me who else will turn you around?..minimal spending, minimal talent, minimal squad???....who else of any note would even want the job, get real wolves fans, you are little boys in a big mans world and you are not cutting it and that is going to be the case no matter who is in charge there. Big Mick has done well to get you the points you have.
04 Jan 2012 20:33:34
I see Webb is wearing his ManU jersey under his ref shirt.
Apparently he should be having his medical by the end of the week, ending 5 years of speculation he's goin to sign
04 Jan 2012 20:31:40
brighton gossip, Dunk to Fulham with Zamora going other way for a Five month loan. Kilgallon going to Brighton from Sunderland and finally Gus goes back to Spurs to get LIvermore on yet another loan deal. HAPPY DAYS!
They wont let Gus in the door at WHL.
04 Jan 2012 20:26:59
"Norwich finished 3rd in the 92,93 season a better finish than Ipswich have EVER done."
You mean apart from when we finished 1st and 2nd under Alf Ramsay and Bobby Robson.
Why is the "editor" allowing wum garbage on a board that is supposed to be for transfer rumours? {Ed001's Note - do you whine at everything? You never heard of banter? That is the title of the page after all. If you can't take it don't come here but grow up about it.}

Any Manchester United fans out there, just face it.Manchester City will win the Premier League.Fact.

04 Jan 2012 19:30:59
Norwich have'nt won as much as Ipswich but we get sell out crowds in league one thru to Premier league..You will be in League One next Season as PJ doesnt attract the crowds because you play boring football with overpaid Premier rejects.... Harsh. but true.
Little shed like yours you should fill it and I'm not a Ipswich fan
Oh go away. No "big" player wants to go to Carrot Road anyway.

To the Swansea fan . This is the Swans first season and they are doing well , good passing team . Staying in for any length of time is very tough , especially if the club you support does not have large finances or abig fan base . My team Wigan have stayed in the prem for 7 years , which by anyones standards is remarkable considering finances etc .When you have been in for 7 consecutive seasons then you may be able to start bragging . JRF Wigan and Proud .
.....wind your neck in fella. In football, as with most things, you can't live on previous glories. Ask Liverpool, Dortmund, Sampdoria, Forrest, Leeds, West Ham and even Swansea. Your team will only ever be where their performance/results leaves them.
Blackburn wigan qpr to go down
04 Jan 2012 19:03:49
Norwich Fans, why do alot of you think you are getting Kyle Naughton, and for only 2m?
He came in a dual deal worth 9.5m, so why would spurs be soo dumb as to sell him for a loss? He will sign a new contract and that will be that and Norwich City can carry on with their carrot crunching.
spurs guvnor
Talking of dumb,do you really expect to get 9.5 million for him.Definitely dumber me thinks!

I think most hornets would be happy with anywhere beween 14 & 17 especially as we were tipped for relegation at the start of the seasn
Lets face it birmingham are not going to finish 13th even though they have not had the best of starts in europe they showed that they are a top quality side getting away wins in europe over brugge the first english club to win ther for years and also agains slovenian champions maribor so they also made blackpool look awful and you've put them to finish 5th you really have no idea
I agree with brum not finishing 13th , think you will be around play-offs , still think blackpool just outside , most teams in this league have off days , blackpool v brum was one of them , at our ground 2-2 , we should of won, best team in this league on everyones day is cardiff! closely followed by west ham.
then f*** me you cant rule out anyone apart from covenrty and barnsley .

As a Liverpool fan, I knew it wasn't goin to happen in 1 season but seriously I don't get kenny sometimes I think the critisism of Carroll is uncalled for. Why have a player of such promise who is literally up front on his own with no service! Downing on the right and maxi/bellars on the left fair enough if they came in and had a shot but they should be whipping it in for andy. And every time we seem to be on the break we stop, turn around and pass it back to the defence! We need a few more players like Suarez who can create something out of nothing. We bought Adam for his set pieces- which I really can't see and all he seems to do is foul. I really think 4 or 5 players are needed before we can talk about challenging for anything again .....
More like 8-10 players.
04 Jan 2012 17:13:15
the japaniese kid to Southampton to sign soon as hes been training with saints squad coyr
04 Jan 2012 17:07:55
lallana to man u?
maybe in a couple of years, why leave a table topping club and the chance of winning the title he has already worked so hard towards just to be a cup player for fergie?
Here's a thought bigger and better club and prem football not some tin pot club like yours
Or even end of season but tbh think United can do better with their resources.
Hes a local lad and will become a legend when promoted with our tin pot club. better than utds bench anyday
Right number 1 your tin pot team won't get promoted latest results show you that number 2 when a club like united come calling and offer him 3or 4 times more then what his getting now he won't care how local he is or sitting on the bench sums you up and how little you know of football
Here's a thought, Right number 1 - United lost to City 6-1 and Blackburn 3-2 so United haven't a hope of winning the Prem with those results, have they? Number 2 when a club like Arsenal come calling for a player we don't want to sell, we make 'em submit countless offers over at least 3 months until we get our price. He ain't going in January.
Definately wont leave in jan purely out of pride, hes worked his nuts off all season to help saints get where they are why jump ship now when were in a great position to push on and get promoted, there seems to be alot of jealousy towards saints this season but i guess we should expect that after beating virtually every one in this division with all there so called " star names"
Cant wait for our little dip to end and get back to destroying everybody again COYR
United did well again tonite didnt they!
04 Jan 2012 16:18:27
what have norwich won?
They did win a game against us but they did have to cheat as normal to get joey sent off
There sisters hand in marriage
Oh no that's not cheating. Ask Brighton.
The top turkey competition.
Top turkey stuffers
They have won exactly 8 more points
than u lot this season, and we don't waste huge amounts of money on transfer and wages for over-rated so called star players like Barton, Wright Phillips and Ferdinand.
Also we have a manager who respects the opposition manager and players and also respects his own players, that why he will be a target for one of the top sides in premier, and why the so called lesser players we have bought from Div 1 and championship are playing so well for him.
PS-apparently the FA do not agree with Warnocks and Bartons rantings about cheating since the 3 match ban for Barton has been upheld, no loss really based on the performances I have see you ain't missing much.
As for Managers Warnock (Mr 'he cheats, they cheat, my team was robbed
etc etc, yawn, heard it all before) VS Paul Lambert (one of the brightest young mangers in Prem) No contest !!
04 Jan 2012 16:10:49
Please Guys, stop all this rubbish about Cavani, Lavessi,
Shiquiri, Pato, etc.
Liverpool are primarily looking for English players with maybe one stop gap exception.
Lucas will not be replaced and neither will Suarez.
Liverpool are a working progress and aren't looking for a top 4 finish this season.
Bent is a possibility, but don't expect more than two transfers coming in.
04 Jan 2012 15:34:36
Norwich finished 3rd in the 92,93 season a better finish than Ipswich have ever done. And you only just avoided relegation that year by 3 points!
....and Naarwich last won a european trophy when?
You can tell 1p5wich are getting ready for League 1!
04 Jan 2012 15:28:48
As soon as it strikes midnight for the transfer window, silly season hits the rumour mills again 99.5% lies/fantasy/idiocy and 0.5% just copying what they have read elsewhere, so many people on here who are so desparate to try and be someone for just a few minutes, sad!
Fully agree, i particularly enjoy it when people write their "rumors" like they're newspaper journalists or something. Ever notice how clubs are "set to sign"? The brain-dead just read the Sun, think that's how it's done and copy it like Parrots. Still, it amuses me and i get a chance to wind some of them up into the bargain, cracking site!
04 Jan 2012 15:19:28
Nick Powell to stoke , crewe have reluctantly accepted that they will lose the 17 year old starlet , Stoke have offered a nominal fee but could rise to £ 3 million

Aston villa need to get strikers to score goals not defenders they should think about berbatov,fletcher or wright phillips
Not a chance of any of these 3.....Robbie Keane will do a job for you. {Ed002's Note -

norwich city has had a new trophy room built the grand opening will be on sat , delia stated she was delighted on the spped of which the 28, by 23 inch tropy room was built and thanks dfs for its completion and any silverware donations would be greatfully recieved , diss town is rumoured to oblige..
also rumoured is that a new stand to be built as a thanks to its loyal fans , the jeremy kyle stand will be built in the comming year .
also rumoured is that norwich will be holding councilling days for fans to get them over the fact that norwich will never eclipse the standard set by their rivals ipswich town
As an independant between the East Anglian clubs i have to say it appears Norwich are the more popular team with fans who support neither. Their 93-94 Uefa cup run is mainly responsible and the passing style they played with. They are still the only English club to have EVER beaten Bayern Munich in Germany and they did it as rank outsiders. The Munich boss had spoken on TV about who they would get in the next round! I believe Norwich lost each leg of the semi-final 1-0 with a Dennis Bergkamp penalty the difference each time but they probably deserved to make the final. That same season i saw them lose 1-0 to a Ryan Giggs wondergoal at Old Trafford but for most of the game United were played off the park. I've never seen anyone else dominate united like that in posession on their own pitch. Apart from this i have no real affinity with Norwich but that year they brought a hell of a lot to the English game and entertained us all. The likes of Mark Bowen, Ian Crook, Jeremy Goss (his goal against Leeds that year was one of the best ever seen.), Chris Sutton, Efan Ekoku, Ruel Fox & Darren Eadie. I know Ipswich won the league in 62, the FA Cup in 78 and best of all the UEFA cup in 81, and Norwich only have 2 trophies (the league cup twice in 62 & 85), but they led the league for most of the season in the 92-93 season and a couple of slips late on saw them finish 3rd. This is more recent than Ipswich's success and Norwich have done so well in the last Two years that even Ipswich fans should congratulate them. And let's not forget the aggregate score between them last year. I am not biased to Norwich but Ipswich's success was before my time and all i know is that the Norwich team of 93/94 played amazing football and made my year. If they hadn't sold the likes of Sutton and most of their other promising players, i think that team could have gone onto win something big. Shame, but good to see them back. (An independant Norwich admirer).
What a long post about teams who havnt exactly set the world alight.
If that's all there got 1goal in93 stop living in the past no wonder you havnt got a trophy room
You sound like a scummer to me
You definitely sound like a bottom feeding skate
04 Jan 2012 12:23:15
Agree totally ! Harding was totally out played and yes Saints see Lambert as a 'god' and above the eyes of the law. Also whoever responded saying 'your 13 places below us' - who says this is a Brighton fan who has put this on here? Might be just an honest true football fan. :)..................................................................................
To the honest true football fan who do you support then???
04 Jan 2012 11:47:23
re celtic and rangers trying to get in the epl can teams go the other way? i would love to see my pub team the nags head in the spl. just think of us in europe after 1 year! ok so we would have to drop our standards but hey ho
You don't even say what team you support or is it that much of a red neck to say?You must be in some sh**ty league if you can't qualify for Europe from it.I bet you are a Liverpool fan,that's the only way they will EVER get into Europe again.We have 2 teams with a chance of qualifying fro the CL next season, no bad for a pub league when you are jealous of it is there?
The nags head hey! we played you in a friendly game start of year , your a very good side beat us 4-2 , i was playing for the duck and goose , if your joining the scottish league to get onto eurpe ,then so are we , does any one know where to get the forms from?
ben dover .

Ed who do you think lfc would be better off buying (if rumours are true) dazza bent or podolski? My money on podolski he would be cheaper and is a world class striker.which is what we need. {Ed001's Note - Bent is not of interest and wouldn't suit, so it would have to be Podolski, he can play footie.}

No player in stoke's premier or europa squad will be sold as they do not have any need to sell.... However all the place who went out on loan will be sold (apart from Ben Marshall ans louis molt as pulis has future plans for them). No one is expected to come in but if pulis comes across a player he wants, there is as always with stoke a pot of money available.

Wait there how come the Swans aren't at the bottom of this table? I tell you why because all you Mystic Meg's at the start of the season didn't have a clue what the hell you were on about and now you've suddenly got us roughly mid table. Got to admit this table ain't all that good either because Chelsea will finish higher than Arsenal and Wigan are my dead certs to go down!!
If you think that somebodies idea of the end of season table is proof that people got Swansea wrong then it's you who doesn't have a clue. Plenty of time for your sad taffs to force their way into the relegation places.
^^ They wont have to force it. Will just happen.
I think sunderland will be higher and newcastle lower, think villa are too hit and miss to be in the top ten, everton and fulham will be up their aswell
04 Jan 2012 01:56:16
Aberdeen are looking at John Sutton of Hearts as a suitable candidate to boost their attacking options in the January transfer window. This may put in doubt the future of fringe players such as Josh Magennis and Darren Mackie as the manager is seemingly keen to make changes to the squad.
04 Jan 2012 01:03:22
Hey Ed have you heard any Burnley transfer rumours, thanks {Ed003's Note - No}
04 Jan 2012 01:38:17
Tadanari Lee has travelled to Southampton to sign a contract on Thursday. Also on that day Jason Puncheon will hold talks with Nigel Adkins about his future, if it's decided he has no future at the Saints he will be offered to Blackpool with £1million for Matty Phillips. Lukas Jutkiewzc will also join sooner rather then later after Rickie Lambert's suspension thanks to the cheating of Brighton and Adam El-Abd. Saints are aslo looking to sign a goal-scoring central midfielder as cover for the injured Richard Chaplow. Liam Fontaine is still wanted by Saints to provide cover for Jos Hooiveld.
Saints fans dont like losing do they? get over the red card. He had to go, he retaliated. You cant do that ! (unless your a cheat...oh, yeah he must be in a Southampton shirt.
Nah, unlike Brighton we are not used to losing. Respect to City who actually deserved their victories. Lambert 'retaliated' and Poyet's support for Suarez says it all really. Think Fontaine is injured, again, so would presumably fail medical, again.
Too right we dont like loosing...we're just not used to it. Anyway way - well done to Brighton who took the opportunity well...COYRs
Not used to it? You've had plenty of practice recently, i guess you're all a bit slow on the uptake.
Whats Suraez got to do with it ??? he plays for Liverpool. DIDNT YOU KNOW !!! (Typical Saints - haven't a clue on reality)
04 Jan 2012 01:25:04

04 Jan 2012 00:51:05
Ed, heard any news on saints ?
Ive heard we will offer 1.2 mill plus puncheon for jimmy kebe? {Ed003's Note - Southampton have lots of offers for Puncheon,my only thought on this is, why would you want a lazy overrated(omi)... when you have good wingers already}
Ed003 - Perhaps after recent results we need someone to 'pull our socks up'! {Ed001's Note - Ed003 is available for sock pulling up duties at the weekends for a small fee.....}

Billy sharp has just arrived in Middlesbrough and will be heading to James cook to under go a medical and then the deal should go ahead and Doncaster will receive 2million for the striker.
Strange seeing as we rejected an offer of 2.5m so why would we accept 2m
Sharp would be a great signing for boro, I'm a mackem and think he would get them promoted and score loads of goals
04 Jan 2012 00:03:32
Nick Powell will be sold to Stoke city, Crewe are begrudgingly willing to let the promising seventeen year old go as they don't want to stand in his way !
