I'd suggest people to keep an eye on these two very well respected figures...

They seem to think there might be something in it...

We'll see..

My mate's girlfriend is on a train to London for the game tomorrow (relatively tenuous link, I know - but he's one of my best mates. His girlfriend's lovely too and a huge blue)....Mike Summerbee and Harry Redknapp are on the same train. They reckon this will happen with Tevez going the other way. Ha.

Is she on the 12.35 to euston? If so, I'll go and have a look for buzzer and twitch (and give twitch a slap!)

Amazing how quick SSN were to say this is bullshit. First time I've ever heard of press releases before a Derby favouring City. SSN just wouldn't have it.

"SSN understand this is not true".

Brilliant.

SSN don't know shit, they're just hoping he doesn't sign for us so the rags don't look like twats

Nah I got that text at about 12, so I guess she's on another.

Am watching too - sign him up.

I know a similar thing's been said a million times, but it's still strange watching the Milan derby and thinking 'Eto'o - good player, wants to come; Sneijder - great player, apparently about to sign; Robinho - he's good, just not good enough for us'.

That free kick shows exactly what he would give us that we don't have. In open play Silva is twice the player but Sneijder shoots. They would be a great mixture.

That quote was from days ago, & when they asked him about Tevez, if I'm not mistaken.
