Interesting that Carlton Cole has apparently usurped Zola as manager And Spurs have a replacement for Calamity Gomes in Cudicini. A snip for £1m, not a great keeper but adequate until Shay Given joins them in the summer

A snip for £1m, not a great keeper but adequate until Shay Given joins them in the summer Always rated Cudicini myself - as you say, snip at £1m. Felt a bit sorry for him at Chelsea too, as he's ended up behind the 2 best keepers in the world for club and country. That said, it's not as though he's ever made a transfer request.

i work at man airport, and one of the youndg lads in our group took his robinho cup to get it signed by the brazilian as he was going out on one of our aircraft. robinho, not able to speak much english said. ahh, present and took it with him, promising if said lad turned up at training ground, he would give him a city shirt. this is not looking likely now is it?
