Yet more transfer constipation

First off, this is not about Samir Nasri. His is a case of severe severe severe constipation. The kind that gets sucked right back up just when you think you've got it done. So I won't go any further on that. I apologise. I use such gross analogies to prevent me from even searching for news on this.

What I'm talking about now is the talk that Hleb's transfer to Barca could take place like, like, reeeally soon. Yeah yeah. Whatever. Like I said, whether you want to do it or not, just decide one way or another and get off the bloody toilet. I suppose the whole Hleb-Nasri deal hang together, and both will happen together or maybe not at all? Aargh. Furgeddit.

Given the lack of anything remotely interesting in the news Arse-wise, I thought I'd draw some attention to this: about fans not renewing their season tickets because of escalating prices. Here are some of the more interesting figures, of percentage of fans NOT doing so:

Portsmouth 21 - ha! Looks like some worthless piece of shit FA Cup and European football next season does no good, eh??
Man City 20 - shocking. I thought it'd be like, 50%. The 20% would do well using their money for that trip to Phuket
Man U 19 - ha! Looks like some worthless pieces of shit domestic and European titles do no good, eh??
Spurs 12 - only 12% They're doing pretty well under One Day Ram M'arse
Chelsea 10 - hmmmm....hard to read this really. Must be those diehard Russian fans staying put
Arsenal 8 - times are bad I suppose, and this helps those in the line for tickets
Liverpool 5 - Torres, Torres, Torres
Derby 3 - they're all mad, loyal, fans who love watching goals being scored (against them)

More shocking news from the City of Manchester Stadium. Man City have officially changed their name to Chiang Mai-TRT United. This is as homage to several things: (a) someone's birthplace, (b) his party formerly named, and (c) Man United, the team he thought he'd bought in the first place. And to manage Chiang Mai-TRT United, they have sacked the Swede, and gotten a real psycho. I mean, he's known as the Psycho, but he really has to be a Psycho, clinically, to consider the job. I suppose the management at CM-TRT Utd (for short) have to be quite enlightened, to know that only a madman would take the job. Godspeed to them all.

You know maybe Thaksin is trying to make a mirror Man Utd. I mean Hughes was supposed to be one of the contenders for Fergie's job right? I can't imagine him going to MU after taking the City job. Crossing the adversarial divide is something only a ridiculously crazy nutjob would do. That sort of thing never happens in the Arsenal context... oh wait a minute...!

Anyway, i think things will become clearer if Thaksin makes a move for Anton Ferdinand and then Philip Neville. Is Darren Ferguson Sir Alex's son?
