    Carrick is pretty inconsistent aswell! Teams like chelsea and Man u are a disgrace to the EPL. they buy their trophies not win them. But i heard they're bringing in a new rule soon capping the amount of foreign players in the ECL. that'll be them fcked!

    Great post. Just goes to show that loads of money doesn't necessarily buy good quality.

    CELTIC may have secured French defender Dianbobo Balde for nothing. A (pounds) 900,000 fee was agreed with Toulouse last month after that club went into receivership. But a French court has ruled that the club's administrators were wrong to retain the registrations of Toulouse's players, that they should have been allowed to leave without the club receiving transfer fees. Celtic will now try to recover their (pounds) 900,000

    Can argue over some of the figures, but reality is the whole Celtic team that night cost about Ten million pounds less than Rio Ferdinand!

    Enough said, I think
