Who will be the first Premier League manager to be sacked this season? Last term, it was Jose Mourinho who unexpectedly left his post first, although it’s pretty safe to assume that Phil Scolari will not be walking away from Stamford Bridge anytime soon. However, there are already one or two gaffers looking over their […]

It’s often difficult to tell whether Premier League clubs care too much about the Carling Cup, especially when they make wholesale changes for these midweek matches. For example, Hull changed their entire team ahead of the visit to Swansea and couldn’t be too surprised when the Welsh club won the match. However, for Bolton, their […]

After all, a football club would be pretty pretty pretty foolish to let their best player leave for a few million, when he has the potential to make a difference over whether they stay up or not. This is not the first story linking this Fulham playmaker with a potential move back north, but surely […]

Experience goes a long way in the Championship, just look at what Hull City achieved with Dean Windass and Nicky Barmby last season. Ipswich Town manager Jim Magilton is hoping to emulate the Tigers’ success by bringing in a Spaniard who might just have one or two decent seasons of football left in him.

Roy Keane is having a glorious summer, a host of players seem to be queuing up to play for his side, El Hadj Diouf being the fifth signing this close season, and Keano was quick to big up the fact the Senegalese striker was a bit of an annoying git.

As the 2008/2009 season gets ever closer, it gets nearer the time where transfer rumours stop and the managerial merry-go-round gets dusted down and put into use. But who are the favourites to go before the season has even started?

As the summer of fun heats up with transfers and transfer speculation coming from all angles, this is a good time to discuss the transfers.

New Golden Gloves champion, Joey Barton, is set to be released from jail this week after serving time for beating a man senseless outside of a McDonald’s in the centre of Liverpool.
