The worst match-fixing attempt ever has earned Cameroon side Bamboutos a double relegation after their captain Koss Roger gave an envelope containing cash to Federal skipper Nkouma Rim on the pitch - minutes later Rim let Roger score in his side's 3-2 win. (Various)

That is fb.

The man who paid £5m+ for Kieron Richardson? </BLOCKQUOTE>

That was purely for our benefit

Keane knew we were better off without him, and was willing to spend someone else's money to improve United :cool:

First link there, although it's nothing that hasn't been said here.

The "And Finally" though

that's up there with this recent news from the FA Vase.

"An FA Vase Protest Sub-Committee meeting held on Monday 1 October 2007 considered a protest from Sun Postal Sports on the inclusion of two players of Sawbridgeworth Town who played in the tie under the names of other players. The players involved were Greg Hiughes playing under the name of Dave Hutchison and Mickey Burrell playing under the name of Andy Clark.

Having considered the matter carefully, the Protest Sub-Committee decided that the protest is upheld and as Sawbridgeworth Town have breached the FA Vase Rules by playing an ineligible player in the tie as the player Greg Hughes was under a Hertfordshire FA suspension."

The man who said he doesnt like players with the celebrity lifestyle and wants players to play for the club. He went at Becks a couple of times calling him a flashy get.

Yeah, he's still the man who bought KR. I think when you have to keep a gash team up, you make allowances.

And he 'went at' him?

Verbally of course

Being slow here, is Fred saying if Sunderland were offered Beckham, on loan, they'd say no?

The best bit of this was the Sawbridgeworth committee saying something along the lines of: "We're really sorry, it was an honest mistake due to inexperience within our club."

Yeah, inexperience in that you didn't get away with it

Beckham to Sunderland?

Grab a beer, sit back and relax.
