Spurs are reportedly interested in Duff.

Roeder has told them to forget about it: http://www.eleven-a-side.com/acrosst...p?newsid=26185

"We have read the reports of Spurs wanting Damien Duff over the weekend, but we have heard nothing from them. "

“In any case, they must know they are wasting their time. Why would we sign Damien Duff in the close season and then sell him on before that season is over?"

“We are trying to build a good squad here at Newcastle United and Duff is very much part of our plans.”

Robbie Savage broke his leg last night and is ruled out for the rest of the season, including the trip to Croke Park in March.
With Robert Earnshaw also out with a groin injury, that's 2 almost definite starters missing for the Welsh

Paul Cahillane and Cillian Sheridan were late subs as Celtic's reserve side beat an Ayr United XI 2-0, in Willie McStay's first game in charge of the reserves. The game was notable for John Kennedy's return to action after 3 years out with a serious knee injury.

Toshack wouldn't have called Savage up anyway.

Not if they plan on bringing someone new in. Still a week left for that.

Hamann is coming back from injury, he'll replace Reyna. The players City have been linked with in recent weeks have been defenders (Coco, Ball) and strikers (Eastwood, Kepa). Can't recall any midfielders linked.

Anthony Stokes should be back for Tuesday's game against Crystal Palace according to safc.com: http://www.safc.com/home/?page_id=11565

Ok fair enough

**dr_peepee** · 25/01/2007, 7:52 PM

Hamann's a different player than Reyna though... There's still a week left of the window though, that's a fair point. It goes without saying that at irelands age he has to start more matches if he's gonna be an asset to us. otherwise it's McPhail, Farrelly etc all over again.

Private bet with Sunderland - who can sign the most Irish strikers

**Paddy Garcia** · 26/01/2007, 4:51 PM

Colin Hawkins has signed for Coventry

Terry Dixon on the mend, signs pro contract(from FAI site)

Irish youth international, Terry Dixon, signs pro forms for 'Spurs

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Date: Friday, 26 January 2007 Section: International

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Republic of Ireland Youth international Terry Dixon has signed a professional contract with his club, Tottenham Hotspur.

The striker turned 17 years of age last week and Spurs manager Martin Jol has awarded the youngster his first professional deal.

He made 11 appearances for the club�s U18 team but a serious knee injury hampered his progress in this campaign.

Dixon has now resumed training and hopes to re-discover the form that prompted a call-up to the Republic of Ireland senior squad by manager Stephen Staunton for the friendly games against Chile and Netherlands in 2006

London-born Dixon qualifies for Ireland through his mother who was from Bailieborough in County Cavan. He has been capped for Ireland at U16, U17 and U21 levels.

His contribution to Ireland�s U17 UEFA qualifying campaign during 2006 has been recognised by his nomination for eircom/FAI International U17 Player of the Year award.

Nice to see Cian Hughton called up to the U18s. What a great servant Chris was, went about it so professionaly and with a lot of dignity.

I recall Hoddle making a real effort to get Chris to declare for England when they were both at Spurs.
