Transfer gossip.

Lets have some fun while the domestic season is quiet. Any local gossip,
the more stupid, the better.

I will start.
Jack Charlton had a meal in one of our local, posh hotels last night.
He is the next Boro Manager.

What you got?

Van Nistelroy was seen in Manchester City Centre today, listening to his ipod, and humming - rather loudly - the chorus to "Let it Be".....he is so going to Liverpool.

Similarly Peter Crouch was seen giving Sean Wright-Phillips a hand up on to a rather tall bar stool in "The Living Room" (manchester) - both are so going to City next season.

Bigger transfer kitty at Boro, and a chairman that forgives all.

So far, for Spurs I have heard ;

Harry Kewell
Cisse
Gudjohnsen
Duff
Wright-Phillips
Bridge
Carlton Cole
Robben
Lucas Neill
Bellamy
Stephen Reid
Pedersen
Curtis Davies
Zokora
Kuyt
Chimbonda
Silvestre
Van Nistelroy
Andy Johnson
Downing
Malbranque
Garreth Barry
Julio Arca

And leaving ;

Robinson to ManU
King to Arsenal/Chelsea
Dawson to Real Madrid
Lennon to ManU
Carrick to ManU/Arsenal
DeFoe to Liverpool/ManU/Chelsea/Newcastle
Davids to Ajax

So, 23 players in, 7 of the first team of last season out... and its not even June yet !!

What a load of old cobblers !!!

I guess it sells newspapers, but if more than three of these come true (and don't ask me which three), I'll be amazed...

I'd settle for Duff, Bridge and Cole for now...meaning a complete new left side of the team and a decent reserve option behind Berbatov.

I'd like a strong experienced centre back and/or midfielder aswell, but I don't think that is likely.
