dunne has been woeful this season
He hasn’t been helped by no central midfield in front of him or a very poor Richards beside him, but yes, he has.
He has but a lot of it is down to Micah richards as well who makes Titus Bramble look world class and a fairly inexperienced goalie behind him…
Zizu Kilbane has signed for Hull City on a 2 and a half year deal. Louis Boa Morte due to join the 92 times capped Irishman to the KC Stadium.
Blackburn have signed Gael Givet on loan til the end of the season…He is a fairly decent centre back, think he played in a champions league final for monaco
Boa Morte is after turning down a move to Hull…
Irish centre midfield dynamo Darren Potter has joined Sheffield wednesday on loan while Steve finnan could be joining kilbane at Hull
Sit on his arse in London or get first team football in Hull.
Boa Morte’s the type of modern day player who’s more likely to choose the cushy London lifestyle alright.

Well the cushy London wages anyway, he is probably on around 30-40 k at west ham and no chance of hull matching it

Lazy mother! He was on cribs once on MTV. He owned a normal 3 bed semi and had the garage turned into a cinema room. All the whacky camera angles in the world couldn’t pimp that house up!
Ah that was donkeys years old was it? Or am I thinking of the time Saha was on it when he was with Fulham, fucking hell I was a student then and my flat was more pimped.
Could have been Saha in fairness but always thought it was LBM. Not really liked by the West Ham fans though, wouldn’t mind seeing him off the paysheet.
I just stumbled across the ManCity/ Kaka telephone transcript, its only from the Man City end though,
Hello, is that Kaka? How do you fancy becoming the supply line to Craig Bellamy and Darius Vassell this winter?
“No, your fellow countryman doesnt like the cold and will be out until mid April - but you will play alongside Stephen Ireland”
“No, Kaka, Ireland is a person not a country”
“yes, I fully appreciate that he is not Ronaldinho, Pirlo or even Beckham but many fans have him in their fantasy football”
“I know you are currently the richest man in Italy but we can double it!”
“erm, well, we have had a bit of a slide recently and we are currently 15th”
“erm, out of 20… but Mark Hughes once won the double for our neighbours”
“Hughes”
“Ex Blackburn boss”
“Blackburn, Blackburn Rovers”
“No, Blackburn…Black… Burn”
“HUGHES man, HUGHES!!!”
“He once scored a good goal against Spain”
“No, thats Gerry Armstrong… anyway, are you coming or not?”
“Usually about two thirds full but if we play a big team its really rocks”
“yes I know, but we dont even have a car park cos all the fans walk to the ground they are so local”
“Relevance? well, I suppose its all they have to brag about whether its true or not”
“Only the one to be fair but its called ‘blue moon’ you will love it”
“Blue”
“yes, definitely blue, always has been”
“No, no, no, they are in Trafford”
“yes they are, steeped in it in fact but what good is history to you my ambitious friend?”
“erm, 1976 I think”
“it was the er, the er League cup if memory serves me right”
“Well, the plan was to get in the top 4 this season and then…”
“yes, I realise that but…”
“Aston Villa? Whats it got to do with them?”
“Yes, I know but we have been down this history route already”
“How the heck does a Brazilian playing in Italy know about Nottingham Forest?”
“Yes, yes, and Leeds United also made a final but you are missing my point, this is all about the future”
“Give me strength…HUGHES!!!”
“yes I know he did and he was a legend there but he is a changed man”
“forget them, they are falling apart”
“But all those trophies were won last year! They have won nothing in 2009”
“I have told you… 1976!!!”
“How the heck does a Brazilian playing in Italy know that Virginia Wade has won Wimbledon since then?”
“Yes she probably is in her 60’s”
“I dont know, probably about 10 league titles, 2 european cups and countless domestic cups what has that got to do with it?”
“76,000 why?”
“yes, every game, even minor cups I suppose, but where is this getting us?”
“Yes, the league cup is considered a minor cup over here why?”
“I know, I know, I know, ok perhaps they won the FA Cup in 1970 or something does it really matter?”
“look, Kaka, we will treble whatever you are on now, buy you a mansion in Alderley Edge and give you a helicopter for your front lawn…are you joining us?”
“NO!, its owned by the council - what has the ground got to do with anything”
“well, officially its the city of manchester stadium but most people call it Eastlands”
“EAST!, not Waste”
“You will be adored there”
“No, not there, here I meant”
“No, thats Old Trafford, I meant adored here at Waste…erm, Eastlands”
“Anderson??? what does he know?”
“Ok I hear what you say, but other than Pride, Ambition, Achievement, History, Passion and a large car park - what can they offer you?”
“what do you mean no credit left in your phone…I phoned you”
“Hello, Mr Kaka,… Mr Kaka are you there?.. …YOU RED BSTRD!!!”
Some cunt on Sky Sports News just after saying that there is a major development in the Kaka story.
Milan are considering a bid from Kaka. This comes from an impeccable source - their own TV channel.
No shit. Think that was established a few days ago.
I can see myself giving out about a lot of these reporters over the next few weeks.

Whats Kaka bidding for? To be allowed to stay?
Yer man Brian Swanson on SSN just had Clarence Seedorf on the line and conducted a 10-minute interview with him regarding Kaka. The smug, contented look on his head when he wrapped it up and handed back to the anchors. The two lads then followed up with the usual, ‘And SSN bringing you all the huge names and their take on this unfolding story - that was CLARENCE SEEDORF’. Swanson was probably cracking one off over on the other side of the studio at that stage.
That is your man’s name - Swanson.
What a gobshite.
And they follow up with Gerry Francis, who’s doing a bit of coaching at Stoke, giving us an insight into their signing of James Beattie. If it’s not one HUGE deal then it’s another.
Roman Caldern will be resigning as President of Real Madrid tomorrow. I wonder if it will affect their transfer strategy, in particular their pursuit of Ronaldo.
Spurs are close to agreeing a Stg14m deal for Wigan midfielder Wilson Palacios.
This guy was on trial at Arsenal in the summer of 2007 apparently. At the time, Bruce was at Birmingham and was trying to build a relationship with Arsenal and had taken some of their young players on loan such as Djorou and Bendtner.
Anyway, Wenger contacted Bruce and said he wouldn’t be signing Palacios himself but he recommended him as a good player. Bruce took him on an initial 6-month deal but then left Birmingham for Wigan.
Meanwhile, McLeish took over at Birmingham and Palacios’ brother was kidnapped in Honduras and he missed some games trying to resolve that and arranging for the ransom to be paid etc! His short term deal expired and McLeish didn’t renew it as he’d barely seen him play and Bruce took him to Wigan last Christmas.
A year later and they’re looking at a massive profit.
