Wouldn't like to see the Terry deal come off. No football should be poofy enough to cry over a missed penalty, especially when up to that point they'd seemed like a man's man, a leader of men, a true hero. Basically, Terry's a raging homo and can fuck right off

I dislike Terry alot too, but City are not gonna get a better centre back than him, this summer, or any summer. If Terry goes, then he's an ambitionless cock anyway. All this "x player demanding wage increase or I'll go to City" garbage makes me hate football, and I really hope the majority of it is tabloid guff.

Sound. I think the marquee will be open at around 10am, so whichever train you make it on is good for me.

Not bothered about getting the bus/car to Dundee, it's your call Maxi!

I'm good for whatever! Booked a train yet Ross?

5 mins ago actually! Just came onto Abdn-music to give you the details... it's the 11.05am departure from Abdn, which gets into LKirk at 11.35am. Which leaves plenty of time for a spot of food and liquid refreshment.

I'll leave it up to Scorge to sort out the travel through to Brechin as he knows much better than I

I'll bring my darts...

The first Man City v Chelsea game of the premiership season should be interesting. They might as well forget the ball and just throw bags of money at eachother.

United have got a heap of money they're now refusing to spend this summer too. Guess that'll be going to the Glazers debt.

I'd say expect a big January signing from them.

Darren Mackie?

They'd have kept the number 7 shirt free if they were intending on signing Mackie...

Possibly, but after the Barca game, they needed strengthening regardless. Now they've lost Ronaldo and Tevez, they need 5 times the amount of strengthening. Valencia is a decent signing. Owen could go either way. Obertan is unproven and is one either for the future, or to be trialled and then sold off to a mid table club or abroad, like Manucho, Djemba Djemba etc... I think without a natural goal scoring presence, which they had in Ronaldo, then they will have to try pretty hard to finish 3rd.
