Cannavaro has failed a doping test. This has come at wrong time for Italy as they need to beat Ireland to qualify.

David Beckham seems set to join AC Milan on a loan deal as the mls season approaches a end. Beckham has always said he wants national football and plays well to get it.

Beckham for me loves playing for his natonal side and I hope it continues for a long time.

I am sorry but I must say that UEFA are a bunch of fairies for letting Eduardo Off.

I am a die hard Toon Army fan but if there is a dive I will say that the Newcastle player dived. Perfect example for me is that I am ashamed to say it but Joey Barton seems to be a very good player for Newcastle at the minute and I am glad he is there. Thus from this you can gather that I dont really take sides.

But Eduardo….

I have to take the side that think the Eduardo dive was awful and he should of been banned for at least 5 games. I know that Arsenal appealed against the decision and they got off with it but really a player should be banned when they fall over intentionally trying to persuade the referee in there favour without being touched or tackled in any way. Yes the Celtic keep did come out but if you look at the footage you see that the keep had no bady part near Eduardo. Also Eduardo kicked the ball away from goal and also kicked it so far away that by the time the challenge came in the ball was nearly out of play.

I know that at the end of the day that this will never become a law in the game but when they give it then take it away it is just not right.

What irritates me even more is the fact that Eduardo produced a statement that included these words.

“I’m very pleased that we have finally arrived at the truth,”

“All we needed to do was to prove what happened and we have managed to do that. This decision makes me feel a lot better.

“I just want to say that I am a fair player. To score goals you must take your opportunities and I’m not the type of player who needs to be dishonest to score goals.”

From this i must think that Eduardo is so blind that he thinks he was in the right to dive. He says he did not dive but it is clear as day. As clear as the Adebayhor kick on Van Persie at the weekend.

I really think that Eduardo should of recieved a 4 match ban or even more.

What do you think???

With the recession kicking in this year everyone expected that the transfer window money figured would be dramatically smaller than it was for the last couple of seasons. Well it was down but not by much went down by 30 million in the end, from 450 million to 420 million.

Your question will be why did I start this banning topic with that paragraphy. Well… you see before this ban if you did something wrong you were given a fine that was to be honest a load of rubbish. It would be something like 20 quid and then you would not have to sell the player or anything. Even with the bigger fine they were still paid as they could easily afford to pay for the crime. This means that clubs will continue to do it and just pay for it because even with the recession big clubs just print there own money.

This ban though is a brilliant idea and should of been done years ago as it has been happening for a good few years. I recon that this will clamp this sort out illegal transfer right out.

I thought William Gallas was good at trying to ruin his career.

Looks like darren Bent took one step further by complaining about a potential transfer to sunderland. Darren Bent ranted on twitter saying that he did not want to go to hull or Birmingham but sunderland.

After that rant his twitter account was deleted within two hours proving it was him and not a hoaxer.

Bents rants like this keep me entertain.ed during the day.

Sir Bobby Robson has died at the age of 76.

Sir Bobby has been fighting with cancer all his life.

more will follow…

Zlatan has completed his move to Barcelona with Eto’o going in the other direction with Hleb ona season long loan.

Eto’o plus £39.5 million seems a bit much for me considering Eto’o scored 108 goals from 149 appearances for Barcelona so it is strange that they would let him go.

Althought Zlatan scored 28 goals from 38 games.

What do you think about the signing?

Big Sven has now become director of football for Notts County.

There has been alot of money being thrown at Notts County now after they have been taken over.

I recon that this could be really good for county.

Joey Barton has always been in the papers but never for the right reason.

When he was at Manchester Cit he attacked a team mate on the training pitch which lead to the victim being blind through swelling round the eye for a number of days.

Kevin Keegan and Newcastle decided that they would sign the troubled star as they believed they could rehabilitate him to the player he should be. Unfortunately being at Newcastle did not help as he was arrested and sent to jail for attacking a young lad in the center of Liverpool over a Christmas period 2008.

Joey Barton this year has been suspended for a record number of games and then in his last game he got sent off within seconds of coming on to play against Liverpool.

As you can tell from this glittering record he is probably the worst player you want on a team but he recons that he can should get offers from the likes of Everton.

Question for me is does he really think he will get offers like this??

As today ends Carlos Tevez has left Manchester United and signed for Manchester City. As a result of this their is a stirring of posts saying that the end is nigh for Manchester United. Some people are saying that Manchester United will become feeder club for Manchester City.

Now……

I remember last year the papers said that with all that money they could buy anyone. They will demolish anyone who gets in their way. blah blah blah. They even had pictures of what the squad would look like with the like of Ronaldo, KaKa, and Benemza.

So a year later who have they bought that was on the picture. Yes as you have guessed no one. The only reason Tevez has gone to City is because he is sick and tired of being a second rate striker at a club he loves. The other reason is that he does not have to move very far to play.

So why is everyone saying that this is it for united all over now…..
