Ajax Cape Town's Franklin Cale, who has been shining in the PSL, will join the Bafana Bafana squad in place of the injured Steven Pienaar for their two friendlies against Iceland and Norway.

The Ajax Cape Town winger was unable to honour his debut call-up for the national team against Madagascar last month due to a foot injury.

A number of new additions have cropped up in recent days too, primarily in Scotland as I have worked at ensuring the list is up-to-date for the four divisions north of the border.

One of the most interesting has been the permanent move to FC Ujpest of Tony Stokes from West Ham United. Having been released by the Hammers in early June, the 22 year old was [.

Well, terrific if you like your games full of goals and incidents. No so much if you like, youknow, vaguely competent defenders.

After a couple of pretty stale rounds the Tippeliga perked up a bit in round 17, with goals flying in at a fairly bonkers rate of 4,4 goals per game. Still, no matter how hard the ever-excitable TV2 tried to talk it up, it was hard for the discerning viewer to watch the weekend's highlights without being slightly troubled by the hopelessly poor defending displayed by most of the Tippeliga outfits.

Sunday

Start (3rd) - Bodø/Glimt (9th)

While Start's diminutive druggie may be almost universally adored by Norwegian football fans, Erik Mykland has been cynically kicked around the park by most teams he's come up against so far this season. Sporting director Svein Mathisen is less than thrilled: "Everyone thought it was great that Myggen was making a comeback beforehand, but now people are trying to put him out of the game," he told TV2, before going on to suggest that the players who rough up Mykland should be sent off.

The news that Scotland #38; Rangers duo Barry Ferguson and Allan McGregor were benched for a late night Dutch rendezvous with a couple of pints is really a non-starter. International suspensions due to boozed-up shenanigans are as much a part of the game as the ball, boots and Sepp Blatter#8217;s shadow. Click to continue reading...

If West ham aren't careful they will be tip-toeing their way to the Championship. Maybe Curbs saw the looming credit crunch coming that has knocked the Hammers for six, and did a runner.
