Better late than never- I suppose

So lets start with an apology, My recent updates have been just not happening.

Lots of work at university started to take control, I promise you will you not have to wait this long again for the next post.

Anyway lets get back to sport and what a week it's been! To start the week we had sensational news that Wayne Rooney wanted out of Manchester (well United anyway). Last Tuesday 'United' gaffer Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed the rumours saying he was 'shocked' at the news.

Wind forward a day and the biggest revelation arose as rivals City threw their name into the hat to buy the striker- disaster for United fans surely!!!

Or maybe not, as by the close of play on Friday, Rooney had signed a new five year deal at the club, just four days after saying he wanted to leave- the reasons unknown for the change of heart, but I bet the £250,000 a week wages certainly played a factor.

In other sports news this week, England recieved a major boost ahead of the Ashes next month down under.

News that bowler Jimmy Anderson will make the showpiece will please all England fans that will be cheering the three lions on down under, and the millions here at home that will stay up all night to watch the action.

This week see's the return of the Carling Cup to our screens, I find myself disappointed when sitting down to watch these matches as teams undermine the competition by fielding weakened sides.

The tournament I understand will not be priorty for any Premier League team at the start of the season but why not? With a European place up for grabs it's the perfect opportunity for teams to play in elite competition across Europe.

So come on managers left in the competition, field a strong team this week and lets see some decent action.... Its the least your supporters deserve!!!!!
