Does anybody else read The Fiver on The Guardian website? It's amusing most of the time. I heart the transfer rumours as well. Sure, you can read them on the beeb or teletext, or any tabloid, but they're never written quite so well as these...


Quote:
THE RUMOUR MILL

Spring has sprung and Manchester United are ready to gambol on Bayern
Munich's Philipp Lahm.

Martin O'Neill fancies Pascal Chimbonda. Pass it on.

The mutiny on Thaksin Shinawatra's sinking ship continues apace with
Michael Johnson and Micah Richards jumping overboard into a Lifeboat
marked 'Arsenal'.

And Zenit St Petersburg's Andriy Arshavin is shifting around in his
seat and laughing nervously because David Moyes' beady eyes won't
stop looking at him

Good one those. We'll have to see what becomes of City's rumours.
However, the Lahm rumour makes me laugh. He's a midget. He may be quick, but leaves gaps as he charges forwards, and against bigger men he'll struggle. He's not much of a defender IMO.
But if the Rags want him.......

I don't like all these rumours at the momment, I've stopped checking the BBC's website... I'll probably only start going on it again when everything blows over and Frank admits he's been a fool. :mad:

It might be amusingly-written, but it's wrong. Micah's going to the rags, remember?

Though the rags are now being linked with Boswinga from Porto.

Just remember Squidge, if he doesn't move to United, we all owe you massive punches at the next meet. If he does, we all owe you pints and you'll be legless before you can say "Oh my god I'm legless"
