Presumably because UK employment law prevents discrimination against players with three bollocks?

Convinced Michael Owen needs to leave Newcastle now, Aston Villa would be a solid destitnation in January.

Indeed, struggle to think of a team that would need him who he could forseeably end up at tbh, Everton perhaps...as he is an Everton fan after all..
If we sell one of our strikers in January (Adams threatening to walk if we do, haha) then I'd take him at Pompey.

To anyone:

I'm going to be in England for a week or so in December this year, and want to go and see an EPL match whilst I'm over there. Is there any chance of getting a ticket to any of these games:

West Bromwich Albion v Man City
Arsenal v Liverpool
Everton v Chelsea

Is just like AFL matches, were you can rock up at the ground and buy a ticket, or is likely that obtaining a ticket will be fairly difficult?

Thanks.

For the Arsenal and Chelsea matches I would say that would be near impossible, chances of getting hold of one from the Man City game are probably a lot higher, but still wouldnt fancy trying to get in on the door. Tickets for premiership matches are notoriously hard to get hold of most of the time.

Dissapointed we couldn't come away with the 3 points there.

Bar the opening stanza we completely dominated 'Boro, but defence should have been tighter in hindsight.

Flea-Bay would probably be cameeel's best bet if he's set on Arsenal or the Chavs, but he'd have to pay through the arse for them.

I've been told at least 6 weeks in advance, but that is for the 'big clubs' so to speak. It was when I won the trip to go over there in 2005.

I think his £120,000+ a week salary rules most clubs out TBH otherwise I think there would be a queue of clubs wanting him in the Jan transfer Window.

I thought Chelsea were supposed to be interested in Owen? Mind you with Drogba injured (can't stand the ****), and with Anelka scoring goals (but if he gets injured?), and I have never seen di Santo play (no idea how good he is), I suppose I could see why they might be.

Wouldn't surprise me if he goes off on loan to somewhere, but surely there are some higher profile clubs who would be interested in having him...

You would think so. If he does join QPR. I would watch their games just because of it.

elano should of kept his mouth shut, everybody know's Hughes is a dead man walking at the club, so just bide his time and cuddle up to the new manager who takes over some time within the next month or two.

Never had a problem with just turning up on the day for League Two/Conference games, The one time i tried to do the same with a Championship game the Majeski was sold out.
