A day after having a Daily Mail story about a proposed QPR name change was categorically denied in a QPR official statement from Chairman Briatore....Some forced "humour" from the Mail's Patrick Collins

Missing : Fox Football Channel

0
After thoroughly enjoying the AFC Champions league match between Adelaide and Kashima on Wednesday it got me thinking, where is my "FoxSports Football" channel.

Late last year a lot of rumours were circulating that FoxSports was set to launch a dedicated Football channel. The channel was rumoured to have a much more expanded coverage of Football across the globe including :

Wise and Poyet in if we lose to Newcastle?!!

1
I don't know how true this is, but there is a rumour flying about this afternoon that Dennis Wise could be joining Gus Poyet in a joint managerial role if Newcastle dump us out the Carling Cup on Wednesday night!

I'm not one to take much notice of this sort of stuff but the guy that told me also said we'd sign Bent about six months before it actually happened, that was bad new as well! Click to continue reading...

Another Tasteless Chant From The Dippers

4
Last season Rafael Benitez had the nerve to criticise Everton fans for the songs they were singing about Steven Gerrard, bringing to life the rumour that he isn't actually the father of his wife's children. Remember all those rumours about the scouse gangster called 'Pancake'? Well anyway, he blasted them for being disrespectful. Click to continue reading...

It doesn’t look like anyone is signing…

2
Well, midnight has come and gone, and barely even a rumour around the club means that, for once, it seems there will be no late deadline day arrivals at Arsenal. And that in itself will let the doom and gloom brigade have their fun, predicting bottom half finishes, empty seats, mounting debt, and everyone from Spurs to [. Click to continue reading...

Goodbye Zidane, Hello Pires

2
The transfer of Aliaksandr Hleb discussed earlier this summer eventually became inevitable. Arsenal, after all, have a reputation as a selling club and had just finished another season trophyless. The planned £20 million switch to Inter that had previously opened the door for Hleb's exit served to ease his path to Barcelona. Click to continue reading...

Chelsea land new striker: Yes, he ticks the Brazil / Portugal box of course

1
There's no rumour that the three flags set to fly outside Stamford Bridge will be that of Russia, Portugal and Brazil. However, there's little doubt that when it comes to signing players, Big Phil Scolari wants them to be from a select group of two countries. Even better if your ... Click to continue reading...

An extra parking space?

3
The rumour that Mikael Silvestre is set to join us is fast gathering pace, and it's certainly a signing that has the potential to divide Gooner opinion. Silvestre has undoubtedly been a top defender for Manu, however a rather unfortunate run of injuries has seen him play very few first team games in the past couple of seasons, obviously Vidic's form has also been rather significant.

Lazio and PSG Links to Onyewu: Nothing But Rumors?

4
Since the news and rumors linking Oguchi Onyewu came out over the weekend, I've had my feelers out (and been scouring the Italian and French papers piling on my desk) to confirm them both -to no avail.

The first report linking Onyewu to Lazio came out at about 1PM (Western Europe time) on Sunday by the Lyon, France branch of Eurosport and we all did our share of speculation. Click to continue reading...

Silvestre To Arsenal? You Got To Be Kidding…

2
Arsenal have been linked with a whole host of players throughout the summer but one of the most unlikely names to have been mentioned is Manchester United's defender Mikaël Silvestre. The 31-year-old has played over 249 games for the Premier League and Champions League winners and the media have today linked him with a move to [. Click to continue reading...

QPR's Week in Perspective

On The Field: Last Saturday began with a come-from-behind victory at home to Barnsley. That was followed in mid-week with defeating Swindon 3-2 in the Carling Cup. Followed that with a home Carling Cup draw against Carlisle in the next round. And the week ended with QPR travelling to Sheffield to play Sheffield United and to suffer their worst-ever League Defeat to Sheffield United. Click to continue reading...

Football Rumours: Alonso to AC Milan

Latest football rumours to hit the streets are that Xabi Alonso is a target for AC Milan, who are poised to offer 15 million for his services. Having said that we are not actually sure this rumour is worth repeating - we picked it up on FansFC which has a decidedly dodgy reputation on mywot. Click to continue reading...

Argo's and TFC to both play at BMO?

1
Here's a rumour that just won't go away. Talk of Toronto's CFL franchise moving digs from the stadium that they can't fill to something slightly slimmer is nothing new and would of course be ridiculous - Argo's suits likely enamoured with the idea that a stadium can indeed be filled with 'football' fans.

Outside Championship Contenders: Ipswich

2
Since voting opened yesterday Ipswich have attracted just 2.3% of the votes in Football To You's "Who will win the championship poll". Not a lot of people seem to be backing Jim Magilton's Tractor Boys but despite no success in recent years the Easy Anglian club may well be an outside shout for promotion back to the big time.

Bridges to build & F1 driver to sign!...........

0
There is no doubt that Adebayor faces a humongous task to win over Gooners after flirting with Barcelona and Milan during the summer.

The badge kissing yesterday meant nothing to me. If anything it pissed me off. If Ade really wants to win back the fans then he needs to apologise for his antics and do it fast. Click to continue reading...

Villa, not Arshavin?

0
The big rumour doing the rounds today is that Spurs have become frustrated with the lack of progress in the chase for Andrei Arshavin and have turned their full attention to the capture of Valencia's David Villa.

The longer it goes without a serious move for Villa from one of the big Champions League sides, the more chance Spurs have of securing his signature. Click to continue reading...

Emmanual Adebayor says he has decided to sign a new contract with Arsenal following months of speculation about his future. The 24-year-old, who scored 30 goals last season, had been the subject of much rumour during the summer, with AC Milan and Barcelona both interested in his services. However, he confirmed last night that he would be [. Click to continue reading...

Simão v Seitaridis

This may or may not be significant, but...according to AS, there was a heated argument between Simão and Seitaridis over a strong challenge by the Greek during a training session. Forlán, Miguel, & Cléber prevented the argument from escalating by pushing the two players away from each other. Predictably, the rumour is that Seitaridis is frustrated [.

This week's top 5 Spurs rumours

1. According to one of the ITK Spurs crowd, Ledley King is finished. This rumour has been flying around for the last couple of years but has resurfaced this week. I hope it's not true. Having him around for a few games a season is better than nothing.

Odd, odd occurences

It's very rare that I arrive at work and find about a 100 world war one soldiers milling round the car park....very unusual indeed.

A brief investigation (Ie a rumour flying round the building) is that it's something to do with Wayne Rooney and a Hovis advert. We'll see.

Anyway it'll be an interesting SEO experiment to see if this page suddenly get's a load of hits when the add (if indeed it exists) hits people's screens. Click to continue reading...

Bad bad news for Tottenham fans - striker to join Liverpool in next 48 hours

It's the news that all Spurs fans were fearing. When Liverpool were linked with Robbie Keane earlier this summer, it appeared to be idle speculation.

United set to move for Santa Cruz?...

1
There's been a lot speculation linking the Champions to Dimitar Berbatov, much of it has centred on the likely fee, that was until Spurs chairman Daniel Levy reported Fergie and United to the Premier League for attempting to unsettle their leading striker.

Levy called Ferguson a hypocrite when making comparisons to stories linking Ronaldo to Madrid - in truth it's a poor comparison as United have been subjected to a media barrage of daily stories claiming that it's only a matter to time before the Portuguese star joins the Spanish club, but the United manager was quoted in the press saying that he believed Berbatov will sign for the Reds.

We start today with news that David Villa is leaving Valencia to join Newcastle United in a £14.5 million deal.

Actually he's not really. That was just a lie, but it's exactly the sort of thing that makes up so many of the transfer rumour and gossip columns seen these days on the web and in your daily newspapers. Click to continue reading...
