Fulham manager Roy Hodgson maintains there has been no contact from Arsenal over promising defender Chris Smalling and would expect a phone call from Arsene Wenger if there was any interest.

A home win tomorrow against Bristol Rovers will see one-time former English Premier League club Leeds United promoted from League One (the third tier of English soccer) to the Championship. In the meantime, Leeds United have launched its Macron 2010/11 home kit. According to Leeds' website: The new kit sees the club return to the [.

We'll soon officially announce that we've acquired Australian forward Danny Allsopp. The 31-year old has an impressive resume, having played at the highest level for Manchester City in England. He most recently played with Qatar's Al-Rayyan and previously spent 4+ seasons with Australia's Melbourne Victory, where he won a scoring title (2006-07) and helped the team to two Grand Final championships.

You've see the film The Damned United, or read the book by David Peace that inspired it. The question that remains is, to what extent has the outspoken, charismatic and often times hilarious manager left a lasting impression on you?

For me, Clough embodies what I think of when I imagine English football in the 60's and 70's and he remains a true legend in the game.

Wycombe's manager for the 2010/11 season is Ex-Republic of Ireland Midfielder Gary Waddock (48).

Waddock made 21 appearances for the Boy's in Green, scoring 3 times between 1980-90, he would probably doubled his appearances for the Republic only for a knee injury after which he spent over a year on the sidelines in 1985.

Hartlepool United's two all draw with Bristol Rovers on Saturday may not have elicited a second glance from football fans across the UK as the score appeared on Grandstand's videprinter (they still do that, right?). However, it was an interesting match for a fantastic reason. In the 76th minute James Poole entered the pitch to make his debut for Pools.

Rendell who hit Wycombe hat-trick

Wycombe's run in this seasons Johnstones Paint Trophy came to an abrupt end last night as they were crushed 6-3 by Bristol Rovers.

Rover's accuracy in front of goal was far superior than their opponents, which in the end was their catalyst for their win, with possession equally shared throughout the match it was the finishing that counted at the end.

In last month's print edition of When Saturday Comes, the ever reliable Roger Titford analyzed the pros and cons of sharing one's ground with purveyors of the oval ball. The piece sounds a note of warning: my fellow blogger Scarf is rightly incandescent at Stockport's unequal alliance with Sale Sharks and if Reading's relationship with London Irish is better, there is still unease among the

LONDON, England — Manchester United's bid to maintain their position on the top of the Premier League with victory at Blackpool on Saturday has been scuppered by the freezing temperatures in England. United are two points clear of second placed Chelsea but they may lose first place after their game was postponed as a result [.

Reading insist they have had no contact from Liverpool over Adam Federici despite reports last week linking the keeper with a £2million move to Anfield.
Royals' caretaker manager Brian McDermott said that his 24-year-old keeper won't be affected by the speculation when the two teams meet in an FA Cup third-round replay tonight.

Arguably the best ever player to play for Stevenage has rejected the chance to re-join the club nearly 13 years after he left the club for Bristol Rovers. Hayles went on to play in the Premier League with Fulham as well as successful spells at Millwall, Plymouth Argyle and Leicester City. He is currently with League 2 side Cheltenham Town, as the 37 year old veteran striker begins to wind down his career.

As we all know Tottenham have many dedicated fans, but few are more dedicated than Morris Keston, a fan so devoted to the mighty Spurs that a book is due to be published about his amazing life.

The biography of Morris Keston is entitled Superfan! and it's author is the writer and fellow Tottenham fan, Nick Hawkins.

Jemal Johnson looks to make it three goals in as many games when Stockport County travel to Bristol on Tuesday to take on Bristol Rovers at Memorial Stadium.

Jemal Johnson was pulled off during Stockport County's defeat at Bristol Rovers on Tuesday evening after the American winger injured a leg muscle in the first half.

Jemal Johnson has been ruled out of the Stockport County squad for the next two to three weeks after straining his hamstring during Stockport's 1-0 defeat at Bristol Rovers last Tuesday.

The performance of Bobby Zamora under Roy Hodgson particularly have been stellar. The marked improvement in his game have led to numerous calls for an England call up. If the thoughts were that Zamora does not have the big match mentality then those reservations would have been smashed to bits after stunning goals against Juventus and Wolfsburg in the Europa League.

What I Learnt This Week

Having suffered a bore draw against Citeh and witnessing the horrid injury suffered by Given, I thought I would write about Citeh's number two keeper....

No no, not soon to be Gooner Joe Hart, but old has been Gooner Stuart Taylor....

I liked him, always thought he would be the next David Seaman, he looked assured, played with confidence, but sadly, like so many players since the arrival of Arsene Wenger, he didn't really get his chance in my opinion.

So here are the Chelsea news updates on Tuesday 10th August 2010 including: Scott Sinclair joins Swansea, Matic also on his way, Mancienne's future to be discussed, Peter Kenyon cuts all ties with Chelsea and Didier Drogba reveals he has been in pain for six years!

Scott Sinclair's everlasting journey as a Chelsea player has finally come to an end.

The pacey winger enjoyed six loan spells, at six different clubs, during his five-year tenure at Chelsea. The 21-year-old displayed shallow glimpses of the potential that brought him to London via Bristol Rovers in 2005, but never really put it all together.

Bradford City's Simon Ramsden fires a freekick over the Nottingham Forest wall

A busy night of League Cup action yesterday, with some notable results: Shrewsbury beat Charlton 4-3, having been 3-0 down, whilst Leicester also came out on the right side of a seven-goal thriller, at home against Macclesfield.

Welcome to the review of this weeks League Two action. After a fantastic opening weekend featuring 25 goals and plenty of action it was a more sombre second weekend in League Two featuring only 15 goals. The fixtures this weekend seemed to be matching teams of very similar ambitions and calibers and it showed, especially in the five 0-0's which will be covered in more detail later.

A great second week to League One has seen 31 goals scored in the 10 fixtures this week and plenty of incidents and action to get ourselves stuck into.

As we will do regularly we start with the League One news:

• The football world was saddened by the news of 2 deaths this week.

Supporters of the team from Bristol's northern half had a good time in the mid-to-late nineties as they witnessed their side hit the third tier play-offs twice, but it hasn't half been a lean past 10 years or so. Given the club's pretty miserable recent history, the majority of which has been spent in the Football League's basement, it's no wonder that the oft-told legend of the formidable array

Beckford scores against Bristol Rovers to send Leeds up to the Championship.

Leeds United has a complicated history with its fan base. There are only a handful of supporters that have experienced the type of turmoil that Leeds fans have over the years – particularly in recent times. Fellow Yorkshire side Sheffield Wednesday has put its supporters through the ringer, as the Owls recently passed Leeds on the way down to the third tier of English football.

WSS looks ahead to Saturday's trip to Devon

Although my predictions of new signings before the Huddersfield game proved incorrect, we are likely to see at least one of Parky's hat-trick of signings in some capacity when we venture down to Oggy Land.

Exeter are yet to win this season in the league although they are still undefeated at home with a couple of draws against Bristol Rovers and Colchester so it's not going to be an easy game.

Chairman goes from saint to sinner overnight On Tuesday, Southampton lost 3-0 at home in the Johnstone Paints Trophy. On Saturday they won 4-0 away at Bristol Rovers. Unless you have buried your head in lower league sand, you will be aware that in between these two matches, Alan Pardew has lost his job as manager, [.
