Habib Beye is keen to stay at Doncaster Rovers for the rest of the season as he has no desire to
head back to his parent club.
The right-back joined the Yorkshire club on loan from Aston Villa until January, but he is hoping
to secure a longer move after making his first appearance in a 0-0 draw with Watford this weekend.
Controversial striker El-Hadji Diouf has dropped down to the Championship to join Doncaster Rovers
on a three-month deal. The move is still to be rubber-stamped but the Senegalese player has decided
to sign for Dean Saunders' Yorkshire outfit after being released by Blackburn in the summer. The
two-time African Footballer of the Year is well known in these parts after spells with Liverpool,
Bolton, Sunderland and Rangers and he has, of course, been in his fair share of trouble.

Having apparently missed out on another footballing bad boy in the shape of El Hadji Diouf,
Doncaster Rovers boss Dean Saunders has now snapped up former Spurs defender Pascal Chimbonda.
The 32-year-old Frenchman, a free agent since leaving QPR in April, was part of Les Bleus' squad
at the 2006 World Cup Finals and has also had spells at Wigan, Sunderland and Blackburn.
Football transfer rumours: Arsenal to sign Daniel Parejo?
Today's junk is using reverse psychology As a wise old jobbing American character actor in a
Burt Lancaster film once said, even a hawk is an eagle among crows. And so it is that in these
times of inter-window waffle-scarcity the news that former Liverpool wing mediocrity El Hadji Diouf
is on the verge of a foul-tempered and ultimately short-lived return to football appears to qualify
as a major transfer rumour.
Wigan are set to sign out of contract Senegal striker El Hadji Diouf who
trained with the Latics earlier today. QPR boss Neil Warnock famously called Diouf a sewer rat
after an incident in an FA Cup match when in charge of Crystal Palace last season and Diouf was
also embroiled in a spitting incident when playing for Liverpool against Celtic in a UEFA cup clash
a few years ago.

MLS wasn't the only team to lose something during All-Star week.
Manchester United forward Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez will miss the next two weeks of
preseason preparations after suffering a concussion during the club's practice session on
Tuesday.
After you've read that rather ambiguous headline, let me explain. I don't mean a
state-of-the-art stadium, packed to the rafters every week. I don't mean a passion and identity
that is unique to a region. I don't even mean you're likely to see a few goals due to some hapless
defending.
What I do mean, and I say this with a heavy heart as a Blackburn fan for 20 years, is that
Rovers have become the Premier League's laughing stock.

If Wesley Sneijder is on the verge of joining Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson has his best
poker face on.
Amid reports that Manchester United is close to signing Sneijder, Ferguson denied the deal,
stating that he doesn't believe Inter Milan is ready to sell the Dutch international.
Blackburn Rovers forward El-Hadji Diouf has failed to turn up to pre-season training, with the
club's staff thus far hitting a brick wall in their attempts to contact the Senegal
international.

Two employees of a Swiss television station have been released after being detained in Qatar
while filming a story on the 2022 World Cup.
Reporter Christophe Cerf and cameraman Yvan Thorimbert were handcuffed and interrogated at
police stations before being fined and released with their camera confiscated 10 hours later.
The main hazard attached to stridency of opinion is that you are often wrong. Sometimes, my
success rate is in line with a stopped clock. And it appears my suggestion that Celtic were more
sinned against than sinner in their recent Scottish Cup victory over Rangers was wide of the mark.
The Scottish Football Association's disciplinary process has found Celtic manager Neil Lennon to be
primarily responsible for the disgraceful scenes during and after the match, scenes that were so
shameful they needed a Scottish government summit to sort out.
We've made it to Thursday of the International Week, thank God. It's like the Bermuda Triangle when
real football simply disappears. And we've already got some injuries and the matches have yet to be
played.
El-Hadji Diouf does not ride his bike to work...
Gareth Bale has a hamstring problem and won't feature against England on Saturday.

Watching the reaction to Celtic's 1-0 win over Old Firm rivals
Rangers and the various flare-ups that occurred at regular intervals during the
match between the two sets of players (and coaches), my overriding feeling was 'meh.
Old Firm match day four and the stakes are high for Rangers. Time, then, for a Rangers eye view of
tomorrow's events.
And it's a pleasure to welcome Scott Johnson of The Footy Blog - recently voted Scotland's top
football blog (ahem!) - to give us his blue take on how the match might develop.
Time is, once again, my enemy this Sunday morning. A quick look, then, at today's games. Including
the big one at Pittodrie.
Odd to see Rangers and Celtic meet so early in the cup, giving us our second of three Old Firm
games before 2011 is two months old.
A look at the league table shows Rangers playing catch-up but their games in hand suggest the
situation is far from desperate.
ESPN have warned commentater Craig Burley after his comments of Rangers loanee
striker El Hadji Diouf.
Former Celtic midfielder told how the sooner Diouf left British Football the better. Diouf faces
a baptism of fire on Sunday in the Old Firm Derby after Spitting at a Celtic Fan 2003.
Rangers new on-loan striker El-Hadji Diouf is ready to face a cauldron of
hate in Sunday's Scottish Cup 5th round tie with bitter Glasgow rivals Celtic.
Diouf who in 2003 spat at a Celtic fan in a UEFA Cup match when playing for Liverpool is set to
make his debut in the Old Firm on Sunday having arrived from Blackburn on Monday on loan at
Ibrox.

Craig Burley reacts to Rangers' signing of El Hadji Diouf with a reasoned treatise on the power of
forgiveness and moving soliloquy about avoiding the temptation to pre-judge people based on their
past mistakes.
Well, no. He doesn't.
Rather Craig gets out his crampons and heads straight for the highest peak on the moral high
ground.
In the previous post on Babel and the worst transfers of the last decade, I should have better
differentiated between a "bad player" and a "bad signing." Buying Alberto Aquilani was an awful,
awful deal, but Alberto Aquilani's an outstanding player. Philipp Degen is a terrible full-back but
was a free signing that didn't cost Liverpool much more than wages and overtime for the medical
staff.
Liverpool have confirmed that they've accepted a bid from Hoffenheim for Ryan Babel. Media reports
put the fee at €7m, or £5.8m, which is almost exactly 50% of what Liverpool paid for the
winger/striker/professional Tweeter in the summer of 2007. The deal's not done yet – Babel still
has to agree personal terms – but I expect we're past the point of no return.

You just wouldn't let it lie, would you?
The ongoing tiff between Blackburn mongrel El-Hadji Diouf and everyone
on the staff at Queens Park Rangers is showing no signs of abating any time soon, after the
Senegalese forward responded to Neil Warnock's 'sewer rat' taunts by calling the
R's manager a non-entity.

Iain Spragg and Iain Macintosh debate all the hottest topics in the game including;

Furious Q.P.R boss Neil Warnock's sewer rat jibe at Blackburn Striker El-Hadji
Diouf after the striker abused Q.P.R player Jamie Mackie while he lay in the turf
with a double leg break seem's just about right in our estimations of the striker.
After all this is the same striker who spat at a Celtic supporter while playing
for Liverpool in 2003, and the same player who spat at Portsmouth's Arjan de Zeeuw in
2004.

Football's second-biggest WUM (Wind-Up Merchant for noobs), after No.1 WUM El-Hadji Diouf, was
at it again on Sunday, prancing around like a tit after his Real Madrid team scored a fourth goal
at Villarreal...
One of these days, someone's gonna take Jose's eye out with a coin.
I have a feeling that El Hadji Diouf has never read the book How To Win Friends And
Influence People. If he had, perhaps the Blackburn striker wouldn't have behaved the way he
did during Saturday's FA Cup game against Queens Park Rangers (QPR) where he stood over QPR's Jamie
Mackie, who had just broken his leg in a tackle, and allegedly said "F*** u and f*** your leg.

QPR striker Jamie Mackie has admonished the behaviour of 'repulsive' Blackburn
winger El-Hadji Diouf after the Blackburn winger apparently goaded the stricken
striker as he lay prostrate on the turf having just suffered a broken leg (a double
fracture, no less) when the two sides met in the FA Cup on Saturday.

Diouf's is up to his usual antics again. If he's not strutting the streets of Manchester
pretending to be 50 cent, then he's on the football pitch pretending to be a good
footballer...
"For many years I have thought he was the gutter type I was going to call him a sewer rat but that
might be insulting to sewer rats.
James Dean..he is not!
Diouf is on a streak. Unfortunately, it's with his mouth and not his feet. The player who
isn't known for sugar coating his feelings has once again let his antics take center stage instead
of his talent. The Senegalese player, who has yet to score in the EPL this season for Blackburn,
once again courted controversy with his reaction to QPR's Jamie Mackie.
