What you missed while “The Sun” was finding out about the biggest sea predator ever…
- What do Portsmouth and Chelsea have in common? Neither can register any new players.
- What do Portsmouth and third tier Spanish side Alorcon have in common? They both won their cup matches 4-0 yesterday (Portsmouth against Stoke, Alorcon against Real Madrid. Yes, that Real Madrid).
- After losing 4-0 to Pompey, Stoke City’s plane was forced to land because the pilot thought it had caught on fire.
- Other Carling Cup results: Tottenham 2-0 Everton, Blackburn 5-2 Peterborough, Aston Villa (p) 0-0 Sunderland, Barnsley 0-2 Manchester United. Side note: does scoring against Barnsley mean that Michael Owen’s arrived again? Or is the fact that he’s in United’s Carling Cup squad a bad sign?
- Police are investigating violence by Manchester United fans who traveled to Barnsley.
- Carlo Ancelotti doesn’t really care about the Carling Cup.
- Wigan manager Roberto Martinez is denying that he said the following: “[The FA] have just sanctioned Ferguson for saying that referee was not fit enough and the truth is that they’re almost apologising to him for punishing him. Any other coach would have been crushed for that.”
- Valencia might have to sell David Villa and David Silva due to financial constraints.
- Things are looking up for Liverpool: Andrea Dossena wants to go back to Serie A.
- Mike Ashley has taken Newcastle off the market.
- Phil Brown is ready to forgive Jozy Altidore for being late to a match and apologizing for it on Twitter; Altidore not sure he’s ready to forgive Hull City’s form.
Valencia might have to sell David Villa and David Silva due to financial constraints.
WOLF! WOLF! SERIOUSLY! THERE’S REALLY A WOLF THIS TIME!
I know, right? Maybe they’ll break out the coloring books and fabricate another parent company this time.
