    Yes we've heard it all before. Wayne Rooney: "Once a Blue always a Blue"; Alan Smith: "I will play for anyone BUT Man Utd!"; and Andy Carroll "There is only ONE club I want to play for!" Their passion and loyalty is a lesson to us all. Until someone mentions "money"! Liverpool completed the signing of Newcastle's Andy Carroll for £35million to offset the loss of Fernando Torres to Chelsea. Carroll's exit saw Newcastle boss Alan Pardew's worst fears realised. We have to see out the season with two strikers from four - Shola Ameobi, Leon Best, Peter Lovenkrands and Nile Ranger. Liverpool's initial bid of £30million bid was rejected, and a second improved offer was similarly dismissed. However, Carroll handed in a transfer request and Newcastle issued a statement: "A British record transfer fee has been agreed between Newcastle United and Liverpool for Magpies striker Andy Carroll. "The 22-year-old England international has handed in a transfer request, which has reluctantly been accepted by the club." All January we have heard Carroll insisting: "I owe Newcastle so much for giving me the famous number nine shirt, you have no idea what it means to me. "There is only one club I want to play for. "Newcastle offered me a five year contract and I didn't even have to think about it."

    Dreadful news, but a new page has been turned.

    It's Power Ranger time lads!

    May even be time for the likes of Phil Airey to start stepping up from the reserves <ok>.
    Ok don't throw them in at the deep end, but start to blood them!
