Transfer Talk

What's been happening this close season?

All I seem to have heard and read about for the past 49 days (since "Brave John Terry" made himself the laughing stock of Moscow) is Febian Brandy to Swansea, Ronaldo to Madrid, Carlos to Portugal, Anderson to Beijing and now Sir Fergies long lost love child has been linked with the Murderers inbred cousins from the other side of Stanley Park.

David Moyles is understood to be considering a £8.5m bid for the Scotland captain. With 9 goals, 9 yellow cards and 2 red cards during his United career he could be as good a signing as Duncan Ferguson for the sweet eating scousers.

John O'Shea is said to be bitterly disappointed that Ajax have offered £20m plus Klaas-Jan Huntelaar in an effort to sign the fat pork eating Irishman. When he heard he was going to Holland, he thought it was a visit to the pie making firm in North Lancashire, not to the bright lights of Amsterdam.

Who are we going to buy then? MUTV aren't even mentioning people coming into OT, only the ones possibly going out. JH fancies Klaas-Jan Huntelaar - nuff said.

Former Red favourite, now manager of The Mackens, Royston Keane's latest visit to the transfer market will do little to disabuse the notion that he identifies transfer targets by sticking pins in a Panini sticker album when he offers Tottenham £10m for Darren Bent.

Something else that caught my eye was a comment made by the self titled "Guvnor" in 1997 when the goat gobblers didn't sign him "'They've snubbed me? Do me a favour. Let's face it, would I want to go there?' The Guvnor was responding to reports that he had been rejected by the GG's as being 'past his peak'. It makes you wonder how crap Milton Keynes must really be.
