Some piss-poor journalism from The Sun (as if you would expect anything else!) "Hughton will keep faith with rookie keeper Tim Krul following his nightmare own goal against Arsenal on Wednesday night. Dutch stopper Krul, 22, had his worst 90 minutes since replacing the crocked Steve Harper last month, letting in four goals - scoring the first himself." ...as opposed to what? Playing the even more rookie Soderberg?? (do some fucking research in future Steve Brenner)

11th in Div 2.

Jesus wept.... makes it look like a massive cheap market stall...

Yeah I paid £36, more expensive than Arsenal!!!

I love how the kid is being completely dismissed before he's even kicked a ball for the reserves... Zoggy was signed in similar fashion if memory serves, in fact that may have even gone to tribunal? Either way he turned out to be a canny useful player (if not to everyone's taste) so give this lad a chance. It's not like he's gonna be in the starting XI at the weekend!

Our 23 man squad... Ameobi, Barton, Ben Arfa, Best, Campbell, Coloccini, Enrique, Forster, Guthrie, Gutierrez, Harper, Krul, Lovenkrands, Nolan, Perch, Routledge, Simpson, Smith, R.Taylor, S.Taylor, Tiote, Williamson, Xisco. Why are we naming a player who will not be playing for us this season?? Jesus are we really that thread bare...

Aye, I realised it was him. Love his New Order covers but that is pony. Here is some bollocks from Creative Review about this bollocks shirt... http://creativereview.co.uk/cr-blog/2010/s...w-england-shirt

His parents must be so proud of their talented son. What an utter bellend the boy is, someone needs to increase his ritalin.

"Arsenal are rumoured to be readying a bid to bring Marseille’s want away attacker Hatem Ben Arfa to the Emirates. Arsene Wenger has long been a fan of the talented adaptable French international and now that OM boss Didier Deschamps has admitted that the 23 year old is set to leave the club it appears that the Gunners boss is toying with the idea of making a move for the £12m rated former Lyon star. Having fallen out with his club over their insistence on refusing him the chance of a Premier League move, Ben Arfa then went on a one man strike forcing his Ligue 1 club into a corner that they are now trying to get themselves out of. The reigning French champions didn’t want to lose the talented Clairefontaine graduate but it seems he set his heart on a move elsewhere and when the club’s captain Mamadou Niang left the club for Fenerbache it appears his mind was made up. Newcastle United were said to be looking to bring the player on loan but now it seems that the French club wants to seal a permanent deal to take Ben Arfa from the club and perhaps the timing is right for the Gunners to strike. Whilst the club has a fair few wingers the Marseille man may be a prize signing that Wenger will find hard to pass up, especially as his sides attack looked fairly jaded at Anfield in a game where they found it hard to create many clear cut chances."

Anyone got any better streams than Iraqgoals? The buffering every 4 seconds is doing my head in...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/...ummer-2010.html I had no idea Wolves had spent so much. Chamakh to Arsenal was a free transfer (although he will improve their squad). "On May 21, 2010, Chamakh completed his move to Arsenal, on a free transfer, which took effect on July 1, 2010."

Spot the dummy The one in the blue kit is probably still more useful than Best...

What do you reckon Capello did wrong though? He had very limited options in too many areas. Getting rid of the manager is just papering over the cracks imo. I think he might walk anyway like. Exactly. Is a different manager not just going to pick the same old underachievers a Fabio did, as Mclaren did, as Sven did. Surely now it's time for a rethink... Was talking to my friend last night about this and we both think now is a good time to bring in new blood. Personally I cannot stand Gerard, he is far too greedy, playing the whole solo man on a mission role & trying to be a hero and as mentioned earlier does not produce his club form at this level (be that as a result of positioning or the players around him, or he simply isn't good enough) but realistically who have we got coming through in central midfield (that has either the ability or the potential to play at this level)???

Slightly off topic this... but can anyone explain to me why some of Japan's shirts are different from others - some have got a shiny contrasting 'strappy' thing happening where others don't (same with most Adidas world cup shirts like France/Germany/etc). My flatmate who knows nothing about football asked me last night and I didn't have a proper answer to give! Is it simply that these shirts are more 'fitted', but even so what purpose does this serve??? If you don't know what I'm on about have a look at this pic (the guys front row far right and front row second left have them on the chest near the adidas logo)

Zurab on a free...? "BLACKBURN have told defender Zurab Khizanishvili to find a new club. Boss Sam Allardyce said: "He is one to let go for our sake and his." Link: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport...-Blackburn.html Wouldn't have him back personally, but as Chris is scraping the bottom of the barrell it wouldn't surprise me.

could be to pave the way for this...? http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Transfer-Exclusive-Celtic-plot-move-for-Newcastle-star-Steve-Harper-article489251.html SSN Why can't they use another team to drum up interest in one of their players? Another keeper can't be a necessity...

Not convinced, looks Photoshopped as owt. If this is legit, I'm thinking it will have another white patch on the back, if you look inside the collar, where the 'cape' is the inside is black but the rest is white (no visible stripes)...although it could be double layered inside? Still a pretty crap effort IMO, don't like the white around the crest or it 'bridging' over 2 stripes, the Puma logo should be on the right and as highlighted already the collar/cape is tits. Whereas I was never a huge fan of the big felt northern rock logo on previous tops, this plastic thing looks cheap and wank.

You got a source for this? i meant to post this in the FM thread.... Was gonna say!! Although Xisco out & Djalo in wouldn't be the worst thing in the world...

You got a source for this?

Exactly the same shape of shirt as this earlier effort, ergo it's a mock-up...

Here's one where Messi, Drogba and a goat fuck Kaka (not literally obviously)

Just a heads up with regard to the 'Free Buffet' in the Cock & Lion after the match - it's actually a free buffet for London Supporters Club members only - not a free for all! Should still be a good atmosphere in there though...

no doubt the away shirt will be a variation of this...

Found this on Footballshirtculture, no idea if it's real or a template, but if it is real, thank god we don't have Nike next season...
