Look who's back in business!

 

Jeez, United are working on an £86M deal for Griezmann.

 

I'm surprised Oxford have got that sort of spare cash - or did you mean Leeds?

 

Nope. Jeez United!

 

Awww, that's a nice story!

So, it's 1-1 at the Amex and the Owl's goal was a Dunk OG.. Glen Murray sent off for deliberate hand ball and Forestieri's penalty is saved, by Stockdale as was the follow up.
Crikey, sounds like quite a volatile game which the Seagulls won 2-1 and it ended 10 men against 9!!!!!

 

Bloody hell! I thought he was never going to get his move! After all these windows! And after all that, It's just to Stoke! A boyhood club player, wanting a sideways move. Seems pretty strange to me. I do like Stokes squad. They have a fair few stand out players now that I rate a lot. Will be interesting to see how he settles in. Arnautovic, Allen, Shaqiri, Afellay, Martins Indi, Imbula, Butland and now Berahino. There's a lot of potential there!

Again, like Saido, I can see why he would want to force through a move when Spurs and Man City were interested (Saido), and Man United were interested (Fonte), but Southampton to West Ham!? I'd say that was a backwards step at the moment.

Good signing for West Ham though.

8M for him is nothing when you think Grabban went for about that! Insane really.

This is getting tiresome now. No FFP in China? Is that fair?

This made me laugh out loud.

It's the morning football news. With FML! Brought to you, by Cillit Bang!

 

Cheeky!!

Sell him for 12M, he struggles to settle, try and loan him back! Why not ask if you can loan him on 0% of his wages?!

Swansea start two new boys on the left, Carroll and Olsson, and win at Liverpool 2-3 !!??

 

Spurs will be over the moon. Man City will be gutted, they should have walked that! Great resilience from Spurs.
United draw (Well done Rooney, can't wait to see that tonight. He would have gone mental for the 94th Min equaliser let alone his record breaking goal!)
Liverpool somehow lose to Swansea.

Chelsea will be rubbing their hands.

Arsenal too.

 

Got to admit, I had to click on the link to reassure myself on this!

Vital Norwich Latest: Neil: Brady Offers Not Enough
#ncfc #OTBC http://tinyurl.com/zmm4y2z

When I first saw 'Brady offers not enough'
I thought he meant to the team, the cause, the workrate, etc.
Then it became clearer!

 

You should be on "Not the 9 o'clock news"!

 

Oh dear, Leicester have fell off!

3-0 Southampton.

 

"Out-of-sorts Leicester have now equalled the worst record by a reigning champion team after 22 matches of a top-flight season, set by Ipswich in 1962-63"

Please win next game Leicester! Don't take Ipswich off that record!

 

Terrible about Ryan Mason. Suffering a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain, hope he'll pull through. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ryan-mason-suffers-fractured-skull-9674938?x

Although I know it's the Mirror, so hopefully it's not actually that bad.

 

Jesus Christ!! That's horrific! That wasn't a very nice read before bed. Hope he's ok.
