United want 5 million for Butt:
Barcodes 'baulking' at fee

The People report that there is a stand-off between United and Newcastle. They say that The Barcdes haree willing to go £2.5million but United are pushing for double that.

A couple of tabs report that free-spending 'Boro will put a bid in for St Nick.

WTF are Chelsea up to with Carlton Cole. I thought and so did the Charlton board that he would return for another season, this waws apperantly written into the deal that saw Scottie Parker move to Chelsea. CC is now at Villa.

And another thing with Chelsea, they have more money than sense. spent how much on Veron and Crespo last season only to loan them out this season , what a waste of money. And the scum have reportedly saying that Chelsea still have to pay out 75 grand a week for Crespo. I thought when you loan a player out the loan club has to pay the wages of the player.

A tad confusiing...I wonder how much of the "Deal" involving Parker/Chelsea was documented, and how much was thought to be agreed without telling Cole and without any signatures.
I think that Peter Varney has made a mistake in trusting in a word of mouth deal with Roman Abramovich...not a wise thing :roll:

It seems Roman Abramovich is just throwing money at the club. Its all investments that Putin will have trouble taking from him when things turn sour back in Russia ;-)
