It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Bloody gypos top of the Premier League and we get stuffed 4-2 by a team who avoided relegation on the last day of the season.

Ffs , I must have done something really bad in a previous life.

LOL Dil, blame the red shirts! Swansea flying. EFC carrying on from Mondays great start :O) Come on City! (that will be Manchester,obviously mate)

Liverpool unlucky....ManCity....very lucky with the last goal....

Yeah but Dil, think positive.. rain is good for the garden.

This year,.....good bets might be made and I say might,... be on Chelsea, Celtic, and Juventus......

Another resounding result on the road to Wembley -): http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19340452

lol Stan ... good luck but it aint our lucky ground :-)

"Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted he is unable to prevent Craig Bellamy leaving the club for Cardiff.

Rodgers said the Welshman would be leaving for compassionate reasons."





Aye and everyone knows in a 50 mile radius of Cardiff why he really "came home" but looks like it hasn't worked.

"injured" last Saturday and now not available for this Saturday either , could have done a real job for us but now he has no reason to be in Cardiff so lets see how loyal to his home town he really is.

IMO I've always thought he's been a good footballer but off the pitch he's still a jumped up tw*t from a run down Council estate in Trowbridge in Cardiff who prefers a a pint and a punch up instead of growing up.

99% won't know what I' on about but lets say refusing to shake JT's hand (in support of Wayne Bridges) .... hmmmmm.

Be in all the papers soon anyway.

"Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay says Craig Bellamy will return to action for the club in the home match against Leeds next month - despite internet rumours suggesting he's about to retire.

Speculation on social networking site Twitter suggested Bellamy had taken a ten-day break from the game for personal reasons.

But the Cardiff boss says his player has a calf injury and will return when he's recovered."




Lol ... yeah if he feels like.





"Craig Bellamy is a doubt for Wales' World Cup qualifiers against Belgium and Serbia in September.
His club Cardiff City confirmed that the calf tear that kept Bellamy out of Saturday's Championship loss to Bristol City is worse than first feared.
"Craig has a tear in his calf and will be out for a couple of weeks," Cardiff boss Malky Mackay told Media Wales".


Bollox !!!

... ask his wife !

In case you didn't know :-)

What to expect from the BBC on transfer deadline day

Football clubs have one last chance to strengthen their squads on Friday before the transfer window shuts at 23:00 BST.

Nicky Maynard expected to sign for Cardiff from West Ham today and Noone signed Wednesday from Brighton. All we need now is a manager willing to play with two up front and we're in with a shout.

Maynard? Ex. Crewe I think.. if you don't play him is there any chance of a loan out then? -):

You can have Earnshaw who doesn't seem to figure in the managers plans. You can have the manager as well if he carries on with his 4-5-1 system. Its boring as hell and not working.

If Bellamy can sort himself out and with a 4-4-2 we're going up.

18 Wolves 3 1 4
19 Cardiff 3 -1 4
20 Bolton 4 -2 4
21 Birmingham4 -2 4
22 Burnley 4 -3 3
23 Crystal Pal. 4 -4 3
24 Peterb utd. 4 -5 0

Roll on Christmas I say -):

Well played again by the Baggies, sloppy defending by EFC.

Joint 4th now Stan ... he took my advice and went 4-4-2 :)

Only saw five minutes of the game....what happened to Chelsea ?......didn't seem very motivated for the super cup.....I've noticed that many a time the Uefa winners win it with the Champions League winners way below par....but still the same,... letting in four goals....

Dil, 3pts and you go up 15 places? Don't seem fair really -): By the way that Wittingham was on-loan at Burnley a few years ago from Villa.. he was absolutely useless when I saw him, but done really well at your place and got a hat-trick yesterday.. Strange game footy sometimes.

He was the only one of the 6 midfield/strikers that started yesterday and played in May's play off semi final against West Ham. Been Mr Consistent ever since he arrived and is often touted as the best player outside of the Premier League.

Cardiff fan Steve Morris goes for Gold in the T20 1500M 7.20pm Tuesday and will do the "Ayatollah" if he wins :-)
