Wednesday night's Carling Cup Manchester derby of a semifinal was supposed to be focused on
Carlos Tevez and the ongoing feud with his former team.
It appears that Tevez will be sharing the spotlight with Robinho.
According to an ESPN Soccernet report, Wednesday's second leg may be Robinho's final game with
Manchester City before he returns on loan to his former club in Brazil, Santos FC.

Manchester United finances under Glazers to be subject of BBC Panorama investigation

an investigation by Panorama, the BBC current affairs programme.
A horse called "Owls FC" was due to run at Sedgefield racetrack this week. It didn't. At first
this seemed a very appropriate analogy for current affairs at Sheffield Wednesday – the "Owls."
But in reality it couldn't be more inappropriate, as the Wednesday takeover tale keeps on running.
