Re: Football Season 2012/2013

Being a mad Spurs fan, l will expect ALL players to stay at the club.

Daniel Levy is a shrewed businessman, and he was tough during the last transfer window and said that NO ONE is leaving.

I also expect Harry to stay, as the club know that there isn't anyone out there better than Harry to keep Spurs in the top four.

The only thing about Spurs is that they don't let anyone know about dealings until its done.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013

There were rumours by someone within finances a few weeks ago that a big payment had been made by Arsenal. This stock exchange thing brings up nothing at all. 'Arsenal are close to signing Messi' great that could at least be someone behind the scenes but posting info from a stock exchange yet not even thinking about it being a public exchange? dumbass.

The Premier League's Â£2bn-plus auction of live UK television rights has gone to a second round with sources indicating a new bidder, thought to be al-Jazeera, has entered the fray against incumbents BSkyB and ESPN.

Bids for the second round of the auction for UK TV and digital rights to 154 Premier League games a season for three years from August 2013 are due in at lunchtime on Wednesday, with a good chance that the winners will be announced later the same day.

Quote:

"The sense is there is a new bidder out there with a potentially serious offer and everyone thinks it is al-Jazeera, although no one can be 100%," said one industry source. "The question is how many packages they are targeting, meaning Sky or ESPN."

If there are clear winning bids for all the TV packages after the second round the Premier League will announce the result quite swiftly, possibly Wednesday afternoon or by Thursday at the latest, unless a third round auction is required.

Quote:

Al-Jazeera took French broadcasters by surprise last year, taking on incumbent Canal+ and snapping up live football rights including Euro 2012 and Euro 2016, Uefa Champions League football and the FA Cup. It launched a channel in France on 1 June.

The broadcaster also intends to launch two channels in the US in August, for which it has secured rights for football leagues in Spain and Italy.

Al-Jazeera Sport in the UK might see the return of Richard Keys and Andy Gray ?

Surely he will be a better forward then Marouane Chamakh as he was a unmitagated disaster.:)

Re: Football Season 2012/2013

The Sun is saying Laudrup has agreed a deal with Swansea. OK it's obvious we're just a stepping stone club for him and yes it *is* The Sun but I'm hoping they're right on this one.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013

Rest assured for once this rag is well on the ball with this one.
