Speculation abounds in the Leeds fans' media this week, with the announcement we are in talks with a potential investor. Twiggster is hopeful of a take over, but not counting chickens just yet and gives his thoughts about the situation on this weeks show. In other news, a Leeds signing confirmed and an interview with the player in question can be heard!

With one match left against Chelsea left to play, Blackburn have completed the alienation process with their fans by sealing their relegation from the Premier League after a dismal season of protests, anger and frustration. The following is a transcript of Blackburn manager Steve Kean's season-end performance review as conducted by the Blackburn Chicken.

After two crazy weeks of movement, sexism and generally craziness it is time again to focus on the pitch. The Columbus Crew are coming into the game with a 4 match losing streak and we all know the Portland Timbers recent run of form. Either way it could be an ugly game but if Portland does win it would be a big step in the right direction for them.

AAAAHHHHHHHH I AM ARTUR BORUC AND THIS IS A LIST OF THINGS THAT MADE ME ANGRY THIS WEEK:

1. THINKING ABOUT THINGS -- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. ARSENAL PLAYERS DOING BALLET -- SO WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S BEEN SEVERAL YEARS SINCE I COMBINED BALLET WITH MY OWN BRAND OF MARTIAL ARTS TO CREATE A LETHAL YET ELEGANT DANCE STYLE!

Fulham fans will hardly be egg-cited at their club's latest signings even though there is some exciting wing prospects among them. The Cottagers have snapped up 12 hens to live at their training ground as they bid to cut a £5,000-a-year egg bill. That's how much Martin Jol's side 'shell' out to feed their [.

How things can easily change over a weekend by KJ Only last weekend, Arsenal fans including me were counting their chickens before they hatched and had put it as a certain top 4 finish for the Gunners this season. However, as I write this now, Spurs have just beaten Swansea to go level on points [...

Harry odds on but read this before you bet. The JimmyG2 Column Today we welcome our Founder Muser JimmyG2 to the spare room to reflect on the ongoing Capello, Redknapp, England Manager, farrago. Good afternoon Jimmy and thanks for coming in at such short notice. Entirely my pleasure. I was just sexing some chickens but they can wait.

Historically, battles for bridges have often defined the context and eventual outcomes of war. Severing the connectivity between two groups of the opposing army, or preventing further advances over an otherwise insurmountable barrier usually seemed like a good way to gain an advantage for the longer term.

Ah, the magic of the French cup We've just got over our annual dose of nostalgia during FA Cup third round weekend, but there was definitely a distinct lack of chicken chasing from England's footballing minnows. The FA Cup has been outdone by France's Coupe De France. Fifth division outfit Sable face the giants of [.

It's been a strange week here on the Liverpool Offside there's not been a whole lot of actual news since Saturday's draw with Stoke, but there's been an influx of folks whose keyboards were custom-made by Nigel Tufnel and have a vendetta against either Kenny Dalglish, people talking sense, or chickens, and often times there's been a frightening combination of the three.

Luka says that's one for definite Harry. We like a theme over here at The Musings as you may have noticed. And while most of you are still surfing on cloud nine after Wednesday let me lay on you something which has stood the test of time: 'Don't count your chickens before they hatch'. Or to put it another way: don't cackle if you haven't laid.

A 2-1 defeat to FC Basel saw Manchester United eliminated from the UEFA Champions League meaning that Fergie's men will be playing in the Europa League from now on. The chickens have surely come home to roost. Sir Alex Ferguson's men were left wanting on a bitterly disappointing night in Basel as last season's runners-up [.

THFC1882 presents guest writer Ralph Dixon's match report:

Chickens 1 2 Cockerels

The previews for this match, the chat on Twitter and the fan forums were all spot on and the match hardly needs a report from me at all. You Spurs fans know it in your hearts already, even if MOTD manage to edit their highlights to give a different impression.

Yesterday's round of AFCON qualifiers marked a huge upset for traditional African football powerhouses Nigeria, South Africa and Egypt who saw their hopes of making it to the 2012 African Cup of Nations end dramatically.

For Nigeria, a 2-2 draw at home against Guinea was not enough to see them through to the finals.

We have a torrid start to the season, let's not get deluded we have lost 3 games and are now languishing at the bottom of the table. This is not acceptable for the fans nor is it acceptable for Wenger. His comments after Saturday clearly show his frustration with what is happening at the moment, more so is his inability to do anything about what is happening.

Andy Carroll spotted at Man City (sort of) plus could it soon be 'taxi for Kean'?

Yet another big name arrives at Manchester City... (see pic above). Spotted by OffThePost.info, picture by Len Lavelle ** The old saying "you can't buy class" has been successfully disproved by diddy bongo baron David Sullivan, spotted this week in a chauffer-driven pounds 330,000 Rolls Royce Phantom, with a West Ham nodding dog in the back window.

Liverpool Offer £12m + Ngog for Gary Cahill

Liverpool are understood to have made an offer of £12m plus David Ngog for Bolton's Gary Cahill. This values the player at around £16m after Bolton previously made a straight cash offer of £4m for Ngog. Liverpool are known to be in for a new centre-back this summer as they look to sure up in defence ahead of a crucial campaign, and Gary Cahill has been one of two names doing the rounds throughout the transfer window.

It burns! It's back. With a vengeance, I'd say. Anybody who watched the EPL Community Shield fracas between City and United last weekend will echo my sentiments when I say that friendlies between enemies are never friendly. Barbs have been tossed. Gauntlets have been thrown. Tainted chickens have been avoided.

Let me start this post by saying – what an epic win. So, it took obscene amounts of money, and a tad tasteless (if somewhat understandable) sacking of a perfectly honest man, but Chelsea now have the kind of manager they most need for the next phase of papa Abramovich's grand project – rebuilding.

Here we find USMNT keeper Marcus H. playing the role of country gentleman on his ancient English estate filled with cattle, chickens, a good dog and a garage (pronounced: "gar-ridge") full of high-end bicycles. Dude seems like something of a ruralist. I can dig that. A couple more years of living like this and he'll be saying "get orf moi land" with the best of 'em.

Were I a more bitter and short-sighted person, I'd point a finger at the FA for being responsible for United's FA Cup semifinal defeat to City, given that an available and in-form Wayne Rooney could have greatly changed the outcome of the proceedings.

But that'd just be silly, so I'm not going to go there.

Dan here.

As the season runs to a close, it appears (trying not to count chickens here) that we have 3rd place within reach. Surely at least we know we will feature in Champs League next season.

For this reason, instead of talk being on the league table and the rest of the season, most of the faithful seem to be discussing the futures of our players and particularly manager into next year.

It's one of funnest and most satisfying sports within the sport of football: complaining about the tedious, predictable, if not nauseating commentary foisted on us by the networks. With barely disguised pleasure, we chat or tweet our criticisms of the uninvited guests who join our football watching party.

Ahsan Ali Syed, the man with a Midas touch who rode into Blackburn as their saviour until several financial irregularities exposed by the BBC forced him out of contention is back in the news.

The mug happy Indian businessman is now the focus of increasing media scrutiny over a global scam involving millions of dollars.

Back down to earth with not so much a bump, more like an avalanche. Wile. E. Coyote, maybe, poised atop some improbably sheer mountain range, on the pinnacle of success, then his cunning plan fails, inevitably. He doesn't just fall to earth. Rather, it's a slow descent, each painful moment of impact freeze-framed with a resigned look to the camera.

U.S. players get a good warm-up in the chilly climes of Chongqing

The U.S. team finished a busy day of training (which also included a post-dinner meeting) at a different field from the one it had been training on. The trip into the foothills was a bit odd (some small fields of vegatables, broken down brick structures, what looked to be an old damn, a road that definitely needed a guard rail where there was none, a few stray chickens, and some amazing art work upon entering the school where college was well), but after the team got there, they found another excellent field on which to train.

Several FC Twente-related websites are claiming that a six-month loan plus purchase option deal for AC Milan defender Oguchi Onyewu has been completed, some going so far as to say the club have confirmed this.However, both Twente and Gooch's agent have told me this is not done (though I get the impression it could be soon).
