Important other information. Lucky for some. This Transfer window no contracts will be calculated they will be exactly the same as they were from the players previous club. This is because I didn't put a cap on how many transfer are aloud to be made and that would give me no spare time for more important things. Loaning is now finished as I am putting it into the system already. (Do not be too worried if you haven't got all your players you wanted as your manager will be given a budget to work with and will certainly fill the spots at your. Budgets made at your discretion ). Once deadline is hit all PM's sent after will not be confirmed. Foreign Transfer window will start, all chairmen will be required to send me a list of 3 foreign players to place bids on. (value of bid determined in rules!) and 2 players from the lower leagues in England along with your manager Budgets for the window transfer and wage. This can be 0 for both if wanted. PM me your wanted managers tomorrow and I will tell you the price to sort it out. Along with Facilities PM me any questions making the title *Question*. I also need everyone of you to send me a list of all the transfers you have done

Tottenham Boot Sale


http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/media/images/non-decorative/the-team/non-crunch/web/2012-2013-hero/first-team/emmanuel-adebayor.jpg

Adebayor first major movement, moving to the Canaries on what is thought to be a 16 million pound deal to Norwich. Norwich being one of the new money bags in the footballing world as the new owner provided a new lot of cash for the low club. Ward had this to say "Thank god for that. He should have never been signed he only plays well when he has money on the line!" glad to get rid of the Togo international.

Another player on the way out is Clint Dempsey after Everton made a ridiculous bid of 23 million for the American. Even after being only bought from Fulham for 6 million. Along with those two Gallas leaves for 1 million to Fulham in a friendly deal.

Perhaps the most talked about signing for Spurs fans was that of Romelu Lukaku from London rivals Chelsea for an estimated 24 million. Lukaku adds to the belgium depth already instilled into the squad. Giving the attack a young and strong face for the future.

Bale, Dembele and Holtby seem to be the first name on ever chairmans lips this window as bid after bid has been made on these three starlets. THEY ARE NOT FOR SALE!

West Ham Get Their Men



Theo Walcott has made a sensational move to West Ham United for a fee of £30,000,000, their was alot of interest in Theo and Kolatowicz was delighted to get him. Their were talks of £37M move to Newcastle but that broke down which allowed Kolatowicz to swoop in with an offer and was accepted.




Also making the switch to West Ham United will be Aleksander Kolarov, after his £10,000,000 bid was accepted. He will be looking to fight for a place in the first team with West Ham already strengthening their defense. Along with Kolarov, John Guidetti and Wayne Bridge have both completed season long loan deals with Guidetti having a recall option if needed. West Ham will be paying 100% of their wages for the duration of their stay at Upton Park

The £12,000,000 bid for the former Chelsea winger was Aston Villa's first bid and was accepted straight away, Moses is said to be looking forward to moving Villa up the table.

The definite last deals


Arsenal have made their final signings of the transfer window, David Luiz from Chelsea for 35m, Jonny Evans from Manchester United for 32.5m with a 35m buy back clause, and also the big one Papiss Demba Cisse from Newcastle United for a staggering amount of 37 million pounds.


Papiss Cisse comes in for 37m due to the sale of Theo Walcott, this player will add pace, power and an absolutely monstrous finisher to the side





Papiss Demba Cissé (born 3 June 1985) is a Senegalese footballer, who plays as a striker for Newcastle United and the Senegal national team. He holds the record of most goals scored by an African player in a single Bundesliga campaign – 22 league goals in the 2010–11 season. That same season, Cissé won the EFFIFU award for being the most efficient striker in the league.


Next we have David Luiz from Chelsea for 35m, believed to be the main replacement for Laurent Koscielny who has moved to Manchester City for 27 million pounds.




David Luiz Moreira Marinho (born 22 April 1987), known as David Luiz, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Chelsea in the Premier League. Primarily a central defender, he can also be deployed as a left back and a defensive midfielder.

After starting out at Vitória, he moved to Benfica at the age of 19, remaining with the club five seasons (three complete). He joined Chelsea in January 2011, winning the Champions League and the FA Cup in the following season.



And the final signing for Arsenal is another defender, this time Jonny Evans from Manchester United, Wenger has said that he sees the wonderful potential this boy has and he hopes that he will reach it at Arsenal.






Jonathan Grant "Jonny" Evans (born 3 January 1988) is a Northern Irish footballer who plays as a defender for Manchester United and Northern Ireland. Evans was born in Belfast and started his career at Greenisland FC, where he was spotted by Manchester United scouts. He progressed through Manchester United's football Academy to play in several foreign tours in the summer of 2006. He then went on loan to Royal Antwerp and had two spells with Sunderland. He made his Manchester United first team debut in the 2007–08 League Cup, becoming a regular first-team squad member the following season. While playing for United, he has been their only Northern Irish first team player.

Johnson splashes the cash


Craig Johnson has put his money where his mouth over the last week and has unveiled an array of new signings to take Norwich to the next level.


Liam Ridgewell brings experience and solidity to the Norwich backline, as well as being a leader figure on and off the pitch. He will be Norwich's first team left back for the season and hopefully for the Canaries will stop them from leaking a few goals.

Seamus Coleman - 5m + Whittaker
From: Everton



Coleman joins from Everton for a fee of 5m and Whittaker, who will be heading the other way. Coleman will take up the first team slot at right-back for Norwich.


Distin joins Coleman in making to trip from Goodison to Carrow Road this season. The veteran center back was part of a deal that took Russell Martin the other way with the Canaries also bagging 4m in the process.


Chairman Johnson was once again accused of overspending as the deal the bring Wayne Routledge to Norwich cost the club a cool 10m. Johnson was quoted as saying the Routledge was "a necessity". It is expected he will compete with Robert Snotgrass for a slot on the right wing.


Hammers defender James Tomkins joins the canaries for a 9m fee. "James is a cracking young centre half" said the chairman. "Not only does he have the looks, but he's got the skill as well. I think that in a few years time he'll be playing for the national team."

The former Barcelona youth player only joined the European Champions last season and his spell of first team football was disrupted by injury. The new chairman was willing to let him leave on Norwich was the first in queue for the talented midfielder.



In other news, Norwich also receive Nicklas Bentner, Emmanuel Frimpong and Ryan McLaughlin on loan.

Steven Whittaker and Russell Martin leave the club as parts of two different swap deals.

And finally, in a rather odd deal, Norwich have allowed Norwegian international Alex Tettey to join Arsenal on a free transfer.

Travis takes over Latics

There was shock today as, just 9 hours before transfer deadline day, Joe Travis was unveiled as the clubs new owner.

Travis, a business tycoon, making money in the youth labour trade, in countries such as Laos, Vietnam and Indonesia, is said that he is willing to plough 30.5 million into the clubs funds.

Wigan in this window had previously sold Giovanny Espinoza, Shaun Maloney and ROnnie Stam, whilst bringing in Kerim Frei.

Travis was also keen to stress that Roberto Martinez's role was under no threat.


McCarthy leaves for White Hart Lane

Wigan have sold James McCarthy to Tottenham Hotspur for 12 million pounds. McCarthy, highly rated by the DW Stadium staff, is said to be excited by the prospect of a higher challenge, whils Wigan have a bit more financial manouvreability in the transfer market,

Big Sam Gets The Boot




Sam Allardyce has today been officially relieved of his duties as manager and has been asked to leave the club with immediate effect. This has come as a shock to the West Ham fans as they were told when Mark Kolatowicz tookover that 'Big Sams' job was safe and they weren't looking for a replacement. It is understood that he and Kolatowicz has various meetings about their vision for the club and speculations were that they did not share the same vision, it was also noted that although the players brought in were of a great quality, Sam was upset that he didnt have a say in who joined or departed, which just added fuel to the fire.

Fans will now eagerly await their new manager, with reports stating that Kolatowicz has been spotted in countries such as Argentina, Spain and Brazil. It was originally thought that Carlos Queiroz was his number one choice but with some technicality differences he couldnt get his man and he will remain in charge of Iran. Other reports state that he was almost ready to hand Ally McCoist a contract having been a lifelone Rangers fan and supporter of McCoist when he was a player, these reports were rubbished by Kolatowicz who said "i am great admirer of McCoist but for now i wont be making any contact with him as he is doing a great job at Rangers and i dont want to distrupt that but who knows maybe in the future and if he wants to, he could be the next manager of West Ham"

Another two In for the Lilywhites!!


http://efcfeelinblue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/james-mccarthy-liverpool.jpg

Today Spurs have confirmed two new signings. James McCarthy joins the club from Wigan to bolster the midfield and Ravel Morrison joins from West Ham to bring more potential to the already strong reserves. Sam stated that Morrison might have a chance in the first team but it is up to the man in charge Boas when that is.

City Sack Mancini; Sign Guardiola


The Manchester City board have shocked fans around the world after they sacked their manager Roberto Mancini just days after new chairman Mario Misarovic joined the club. He has now been replaced with former Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola as City look to retain the Premier League title.

Guardiola resigned from the Catalan club at the end of the 2011-12 season claiming exhaustion, and was set to take a year long sabbatical with his family to New York, although has been enticed to join the Manchester club after Mancini left the club just days into Misarovic's reign. Allegedly the chairman didn't like how close the title race had been last season, despite coming out on top in the final seconds of the season, and has decided to move the Italian on in favour of a younger, more successful option. City were also apparently interested in signing Real Madrid's Jose Mourinho, and Borussia Dortmund's Jurgen Klopp.

City fans are said to be "ecstatic" about the appointment of Guardiola, and critics are certainly excited to see how he fares in England, outside his comfort zone of Spain and the Camp Nou.

Next signing is the Great Midfielder who signed in a swap deal along with peter crouch and 3 other players from stoke. He may be loaned out.

Craig Dawson leaves WBA as part of a deal with Stoke. he was un-needed.
