    Saints new "betting partner" being ridiculed on social media. Kenyan based and people joking about it being a "Nigerian scam"

    "Dear Mr Reed, I am wanting to give you $50,000,000 for a share in your club, this money has been left in our bank account, all we require you to do is put some stalls in your concourse where we can get some more money from those nice people wearing the red & white strips"

    Celtic get completely dominated for 80 minutes, then score an equaliser.

    News is 7 days old, but Graziano's Shandong Luneng beat rivals Hangzhou Greentown 4-1 in the Chinese Super League on 20th July 2016.

    And yes, of course he scored:

    42' Jucilei 1 - 0
    55' Yongpo Wang 2 - 0
    87' Graziano Pelle 3 - 0
    89' Papiss Cisse 4 - 0
    90' Sammir 4 - 1

    Sky have announced that they are going to provide some coverage of Chinese football, so we may catch a glimpse of Pelle. Apart from the money, I think this is a poor move for Graziano. Not discounting the lure of money, but how much do you really need....perhaps he knows that his knees may give out soon and has grabbed the chance of one last payday.

    NK Domzale 2-1 West Ham - are they trying to exit Europe again, super early! Just shows that British teams are not as outstanding as they think despite all the cash!

    So Wolves sack Kenny Jackett just a week after the Chinese takeover!!! Could be a wonderful job for someone to restore them to the PL as they have a biggish fan base, super stadium, sound infrastructure so what more could a manager want? So who is available... Bruce, Martinez, Giggs, LVG, Poyet or would they be tempted to go for a British manager such as Eddie Howe, Sean Dyche, Nigel Pearson? It is certainly an attractive proposition for someone to take on.

    A genuine sleeping giant too. Mind you, Wolves have been asleep so long they're giving Rip Van Winkle a run for his money.

    I think it could be the reason why Saints didn't want to extend his contract past next season. He makes himself one of the world's richest players by lasting two more years. He'll never have money worries again. Understandable.

    They could even have a warm-up punch on Lallana.

    At the bottom of that article is a vote on whether Liverpool will finish in top 4. Currently over 70% believe they will....it is everyone's duty to correct this erroneous idea...get voting. :)
