  To the blind Gers man who wrote

Keane , downing , Bellamy , Arshavin , You sellick fans sure make me laugh . Even to take that lot on loan would cost you 300,000 a week in wages ! Bellamy mibi but hes on 80,000 a week and would need to take a huge wage cut . As i have said before stop taking the drugs !!!!!! Dont think you listend think you have started taking more !!!!!! Rangers to sign Alan Smith on loan till end of season as he is a Gers man hes willing to move to the spl and take a wage cut we will also sell Bouggera Adam Burke Beasley and release Daily Hemdani and JCD who all have new teams to go to and 6 months only on there contracts Rangers also Back in for Danny shittu Berra ,Driver And lovenkrands is already a done deal!

Yous are the ones wetting your pants over Arshavin out of your list you will get berra and lovenkrands celtic will sign bellamy – maybe only if he wants to come back because there will have to be wage cuts and maybe driver not much activaty going to happen with both club untill summer.
  Some Major news from the most succesfull club in the world,yes my friends Glasgow Rangers:

The bears are to conclude 4 big deals in January:

Arshavin – ??? – there is a deal in place in regards to sell ons, percentage of next fee's etc as none of the so called top clubs in england, spain etc are willing to touch him!

Berra – £3 million pound for the next scotland and Rangers captain, great bit of business.

Tonel £2 million – the next Cuellar

Driver – £1 million to play on the left

All these deals will be funded buy the sales of

Boughera – £4.5 Marseilles
Beasley – £1 million – Spain
Darcheville – £200,000 Valencienes
Adam + Burke – £1 million – Both Forrest
Daily – Hemdani – Smith all to be released although Smith may well stay until the summer!

The beggars on the south side will laugh however when wee eidan micgedi is gone and they have paddy and nick nack on the wings we will have the last have the last laugh. . . . . . . . . . 51 n counting.

  Arsenal – ashley young 15 mill if not aiden mcgeady 8 mil
  I know a lot of people take the micky on this forum but when you think about it the majority of it is not far away from the truth, take yesterdays rumour "Probably Allardyce, but what do i know?" Well mate you were spot on as the next blackburn manager. OK not rocket science but don't knock yourself down. It's fair to say that Keane now appears to be a Liverpool Board buy rather than a RAFA buy. The engineering appears to be moving with keane looking at returnng leaving a vacancy open for Owen,. .Me i have serious misgivings about this and don't want it to happen, a great player but a man with not a lot of integrity when it comes to allegiance. The question is if it does happen will it be another Board buy ?
  Celtic news; driver 95% certain to sign, as well as fletcher, zaluska and sylvinho. the board may go big and make a huge swoop for pavlyuchenko or arshavin if they are serious about getting further in the champions league. pavlyuchenko may come for a cut price of 5–6 million, arshavin highly highly unlikely but arshavin desperate to leave and zenit want him gone. remember, i told you about mcginn and misun 2 weeks before it happened, and last summer i told you about crosas,maloney and hutchinson days before it happened.
  Whos the interested parties in buying west ham any info anyone.
  Some transfers very likely to take place in January are:

Michael Turner to Spurs
Emile Heskey to Arsenal
Michael Owen to Villa
Roque Santa Cruz to Man City
Michael Dawson to Newcastle
Joe Ledley to Stoke
Jermaine Pennant to Hull
Dean Windass to Newcastle
Kevin Davies to Blackburn
Rory Delap to Everton
Sylvan Ebanks–Blake to Fulham
Kaka to Man united ( NOT city as rumoured)
Ronaldo ( fat, toothy one) to West Brom
Nicky Butt to Man city
Michael Duberry to West Ham
Peter Crouch to Spurs
Kevin Doyle to Liverpool
Ben Foster to Spurs
  Real Madrid will bolster their squad in January with three major signings. The first (could be completed within 48 hours) will be Lassana Diarra of Pompey for around 15 mil, beating City and Spurs in the race for the Frenchman. Secondly will be the signing of Andrei Arshavin of Zenit (Zenit have granted Arshavin a transfer in Januay) for around 25 mil. Finally will be the signing of Ashley Young of Villa for around 20 mil. James Milner will take Youngs' place in the first XI at Villa. Man City will be making no 50 odd mil signings. They will sign Roque Santa Cruz of Blackburn for 15 mil, Stephen Warnock of Blackburn for 5 mil, Lukas Podolski of Munich for 7 mil and Karim Benzema of Lyon for 20–25 mil. These signings could all take place for City in January. Ex–Inter boss Mancini will be unveiled as new Sunderland manager by next week. Paul Ince will take over at West Brom if Tony Mowbray is sacked. Arsenal will sign Alexandre Pato of Milan in January for 10 mil + Senderos permenantly.

  To the person who wrote this below:
I WROTE ON HERE SOME WEEKS AGO THAT THE McGEADY/ STRACHAN SITUATION WAS UNTENABLE AND THE DEPARTURE OF THE TRICKY WINGER IS IMMINENT. McGEADY IS BEING SINGLED OUT AFTER EVERY DODGY RESULT WHILE CULPRITS LIKE BORUC, MCDONALD, SAMARAS AND THE WHOLE BACK 4 REMAIN UNTOUCHABLE.
UNLESS THE BOARD PULL A RABBIT OUT THE HAT WITH A COUPLE OF MAJOR SIGNINGS – SLIM CHANCE – THE WEE GINGER MAN WILL BE TEMPTED BY ONE OF THE EVER INCREASING ENGLISH PREMIER VACANCIES, AS THE FANS LOSE AN ALREADY WELL WORN PATIENCE OVER HIS MIS – HANDLING OF ANOTHER TOP PLAYER.

I Know the true story behind this belive me!!

Aiden has been causing grief for Celtic Fc for some time. His nightlife activities has caused so much hastle for the club and the police have indeed been in touch with the club about his behaviour. The FACT that all the other players actualy take the critisism and get on with it and aiden spits the dummy out shows the level of mentality he has. I like him as a player but no one is bigger than the club. Pretty stupid comments about "others being untouchable"!!.

  Mcginn has officially joined the hoops from derry city, and also celtic have snapped up czech rep under 21 international milan masun from under ac milans nose. big rumour around parkhead that bellemy is on his way in january
  ALL NEWCASTLE FANS

I saw Leighton Baines of Everton along with Real Madrid striker Saviola outside St James' park yesterday. With their agents present with the Newcastle chief executives, it is likely Newcastle United will seal the deal for the duo within the next 14 days. Baines is unhappy with a lack of first team opportunities at Everton. The Baines transfer will cost 6million with Saviola costing 8million. Also, I personally know Amiobi's agent he has told me that it is a certainty the striker will seal a transfer to Celtic before the new year for a fee of 2.5million. Also, Newcatsle will continue to negotiate with Newcastle but he will eventually be sold to Liverpool for 2.5million.
  NEWCATSLE GOSSIP

Newcastle will look to sign Tttenham's out of favour attacking midfielder Giovanni Dos Santos. He is desperate for much needed first team football so Newcastle will swoop for the Mexican in a swap involving Owen + 5M. Kinnear has contacted Spurs about the possible transfer and is expected to be completed by a week on Sunday!!! 110% TRUE!!!

  Aiden McGeady set to leave club in January with Everton, Newcastle and Bayern Munich all interested.

NEWCASTLE BREAKING NEWS
Joey Barton will leave for Celtic during the January transfer window with McGeady being offered as part of a swap deal with Newcastle. Barton is eager to find a new club after a bust up in training whilst Celtic are looking to offload McGeady after a fall out with Strachen. This deal looks almost certain to happen.

WATCH THIS SPACE
  All this talk about McGeady – get this straight, he is out the only question is where is he off to? rumour is that Newcastle could do a swap plus cash deal involving Duff coming to the Hoops. Any other move will be for cash only and will probably be from one of the top 8 in England. About time the inconsistent wee git left anyway!
  Sam allardyce will offload santa cruz to manchester city for 20mil and mccarthey to to somewhere abroad for 6mil, and he will also be given 15mil to spend in janurary so with 41mil to spend he will sign.

nolan will come in for 5mil as blackburn have a lot of injurys in that position. he will also try and sign owen for 4mil and alexis sanchez for 7mil. he will replace robinson with jaaskalinin 2.5mil.since rovers don't have a right sided midfielder he will sign diego capel for 8mil. and will sign eboue for right back 4mil
total
32.5mil

  Everyone is saying about D.I.C coming back in for Liverpool and taking over them but has anyone accually read anything or heard anything or is all just rumours??

Also i feel as a Liverpool fan we still need a right winger maybe we could go in for Elano at City, Quaresma of Inter or even if we were able to mk enough money get Sergio Kun Aguero
  Tony Mowbray will have money to spend in the transfer window and will be looking to sign:
Fat Ronaldo
Luis Fabiano
Maicon
Miranda
Amauri
Diego
  My girlfriend works at the emirates and has just called to tell me that Gallas is on his way to ac milan in Jan, apparently ac will also make Senderos' loan move permanent, the combined price– none other than Mathieu Flamini, who is apparently missing north London and in particular playing alongside Cesc. The missus tells me that there is a lot of excitement around the office at the moment as everyone was very sad to see him leave in the first place.
This just leaves Wenger to find a suitable replacement at cb, however it will only be one as apparently Wenger has been very impressed with Djourou since the Chelski game, where apart from the own goal he had a blinder. Word from the emirates is that Upson tops Wenger wish list and Arsenal are preparing a bid in the region of £8m. Mexes is still an option but Wenger would prefer an English cb due to the uncertainty surrounding Blatters 6+5 rule.
Arsenal fans can also expect to see the back of either denilson or song who just don't cut the mustard, with ramsay and wilshere given more first team playing time.
