City and United can both fuck off. And Chelsea. And Everton. And Spurs. And Newcastle. And QPR

In November 2009, Sheffield FC announced, after months of speculation, they planned to build a 10,000 capacity stadium at Olive Grove.[2] This move was speculated for quite some time, as the club wished to return to its roots in Sheffield.[3]
Sheffield FC is not Sheffield Wednesday.

But they have Aguero, who can hate Aguero?
They have fun games too, like their opening game, the QPR one obviously, the 3-3 with Sunderland etc etc. They never make it easy.
It's much more fun to watch than United being outplayed for 90 minutes then fucking 'Little Pea' scores in Fergie time.
You've got wires crossed I'm afraid mate. The Olive Grove site was where Wednesday originally played before we moved to Hillsborough in 1899.
That Wiki entry refers to Sheffield FC moving to Olive Grove, not Sheffield Wednesday. Sheffield FC are a non-league club, and are in fact the oldest football club in the world. They currently play in a small village/town on the outskirts of Sheffield but a move to Olive Grove would get them back within the City itself.
Hillsborough is going nowhere thankfully.
Also for reference, we were relegated from the Premiership in 2000. It's been a while.

I certainly hope so
Has the swap happened yet Yurt?
The Johnson to the scum didn't come from my "source" (though I am loathe to use the word...) did it...
It was a wind up
They both passed their medicals a few hours ago I think. Pazzini even picked his number

I must be paranoid
I hope not. That 12 million would be better spent elsewhere
It's not even a saga. He wants to stay at Liverpool.
Where did you hear that anyway?

Newcastle will need a striker for over the ACON surely? £12 million is a fair price I reckon.

Well Senegal and Ivory Coast play each other to decide who gets a spot in the finals, obviously Ivory Coast are the heavy favourites so it's unlikely we'll lose Ba & Cisse.
We do need a striker though, our only back up is Shola FFS.

By the way, can I just say bravo to the Golden Tie for swooping in and securing the Pazzini-Quagliarella swap right from under our noses? We've repeatedly got the better of nearly everyone in Serie A this summer but that was a masterful swoop.

Dat half failed header that went in anyway.
To be honest I could have written that article.
But they have Tevez and he's no fun.
Newcastle will buy another Senegalese striker and justifying said purchase by thinking that Senegal wouldn't take ALL three strikers, would they?
Konaté wants to come to England
I don't think he ever wanted to leave Newcastle.
Hopefully Campbell gets some minutes in the Europa League.

He'll get his chance in the Europa I think, it's difficult to judge how well he'd cope in the first team yet.
Doh! That makes a helluva lot of sense, didn't notice the FC obviously. I was so confused!
Sheffield FC's current capacity is 2,000 so that would be a nice bump for them. I can't even envision what their existing set up must be like. Seems like you'd basically just have people standing around the touch lines and hit 2k.
Charlton, Sheff Wed and Blackpool would be my preferred picks.

Blackburn, Blackpool and Leeds would be my picks.
The only nouns with which "massive" fits are club and twat.

1. Wolves
2. Blackburn (only for Jeff, don't really care for them myself)
3. Don't give a shit.
The hilarity of Ståle in the premier league would just be fantastic. Leeds can fuck off.

Well, the billionaire owner of Anzhi is from Dagestan (Mahachakala is the capital of Dagestan) so there is no way they move. They actually have a really good, passionate fanbase too and they have lots of local grown players playing for them as well, plus they are currently building a new 40,000 seat stadium there too. In general they are spending something like 500 million on improving the infrastructure.
Do I detect semi-plausible (Mirror, Star, Bleacher Report) developments in our swoop for him ?
Come on that was hilarious. I hope we see a similar repeat this year.
Have Metro had their say yet?
Fuck all to report brah.

The Twitters, they speak to me.
A number of outlets are echoing Calciomercate and the Mail I think.
Why even bother posting that?
