FOOTBALL fans are fickle creatures and this was clearly illustrated over the weekend when both Manchester clubs secured wins to leave them in the top two spots in the Premier League.

It is only a few seeks since Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney and Manchester City’s Carlos Tevez were expressing dissatisfaction with their current employers and seeking pastures new.

THE last few days have been a bumper one for accountants, private health hospitals, solicitors, agents and the like who are involved with the football industry.

It’s transfer window time again with the deadline set at 6pm on Tuesday, August 31.  September 1 is also the deadline for Premier League clubs to announce their 25 man squads so a host of decisions weren’t made until to the last minute.
