Dodgy source, but they claim to have confirmation.

I'd love to have Carrick back, though not too hot on the other 3...

 

[llamafarmer]

Would love Carrick back, but I don't believe this!

Remind me of today's date again…

Chelsea have reached an agreement with debt-ridden Manchester United to buy the England and Manchester United captain, Rio Ferdinand.
Rio Ferdinand will cost Chelsea £30m, and the amount will go some way towards helping the Glazers pay off Manchester United’s mountain of debt.
One wonders how Chelsea will make space for Ferdinand in their starting line-up, with Terry and Carvalho already present and the likes of Alex ready to step-up when needed.
Rumours suggest that Chelsea manager Avram Grant may actually experiment with 4 center-backs, with Alex at left-back and Carvalho at right-back.
We asked Chelsea manager Avram Grant this question, and this is what he had to say:

Arsenal have decided to bolster their squad by splashing big for the first time under Monsieur Wenger. Backed by Alisher Usmanov’s millions, Arsenal will spend around 30m to bring Owen Hargreaves and Carlos Tevez from Manchester United to the Emirates.
Manchester United have been eager to offload their star players this summer in a bid to pay off their £700m debt, and the Glazers have struck deals with a host of clubs in the Premier League and La Liga to sell Manchester United’s finest.
Details of the Arsenal deal are sketchy, but reports suggest that both Tevez and Hargreaves will cost £10m and £20m respectively, although technically Tevez is on loan at United and the 10m will be paid just to transfer that loan over to Arsenal.
Fans will question the sanity of this agreement, but the Usmanov takeover and impending doom that his reign will bring make this the least of their problems.

And their saying at the top of the site...Football news you can trust :lol:

April fools

 

[van_Pommel]

Oh yeah, April 1st. Time to plan some fools of my own!

 

[guiltyparty]

Must try harder chaps, not even vaguely believable

 

[Evolution]

Utter shite

 

[NickHSpurs]

Can't seriously have even considered believing this??

 

[CosmicHotspur]

Not safe to read anything in here today!

 

[InOffMeLeftShin]

About as believable as the Keane to LA galaxy story I read earlier.

 

[Shanks]

Robbo to Arsenal???

LOL

Nani shags a goat
Reports suggest that Nani showboated by bouncing a ball on his head and shoulders and did several backflips before the goat would agree to participate in any sort of activity. Nani had hoped that the US would be kinder to him than the UK, but his reputation seems to have traveled ahead of him.
The actual act wasn’t witnessed any of the other 6, but Britney claims she heard an animal screaming from the other room and that she’d never heard anything like that. Of course, that was probably Anderson and Lohan, considering that the goat (and Nani) stayed in the back porch at all time, enjoying the moonlight and each other’s company.

This was the best part of soccerlens april's fool, but when I first read whole story, didn't remember it's aprill 1st :lol:

I thought April 1st stories are to make you believe in them. Who would want the likes of Saha and Foster.

 

[milkman]

April fools! :wink:

 

[thetallaghttiger]

obviously BS

But I'd jump at the chance at signing Carrick and Foster

As for the other two, :shake:

 

[paul_1979yid]

[Stavi]

can anyone remember in the mid 90s when sky broadcasted on 1 april that any team below 14th in the premiership would be relegated due to a plan to make the league more competitive or something? it was amazing. they got some managers in on it and even some chairman i think. of course we were doing shite at the time and i was terrified. then, at 1 minute to 12 they all shouted out "april fools". brilliant.
