Schwarzer staying put at Fulham. Maybe a chance of Shay going to Arsenal?
i am a big supporter of ireland team like and i love seeing our players do well but i think these are signs of a bleak period for irish football in the next few years. shay given will not get into the man city first team not for epl games, not for europa and not for fa cup. mayb carling cup but even then i have doubts. the key to get the best out of hart is giving him many many games there not gonna like want to keep taking him out of the team. shay is greedy everyone knows he wont get back in the team and really should have left. i would been dissapointed with fulham but since no big teams have any interest in given it would have been alright(arsene wenger wants to go four a 37 yr old over a 34 yr old who he could get for roughly same price)

I think Wenger ruled that out when he mentioned the club couldn't/wouldn't pay Given's wages. I'm guessing this only refers to a loan move because Given would be unlikely to mind a pay cut. Either that or it's a cop out by Wenger.
Ian Harte to Reading?

Hartes form has been fantastic lately, not surprised in the least to see a championship team pushing for promotion to be after him. I still say he's the best left back option we have, dangerous player when he's on form.
Harte's like a cannon. Mighty shot, great from set pieces but doesn't move very fast. If at all.

The little pace he had has completely deserted him. In fact he's been moved into the centre now where pace isn't as important. I think he lacks the physicality to play as a centrehalf at the top level, but maybe I'm wrong.
One hell of a free kick taker still though. Remarkable return for a defender last campaign, albeit at a lower level.
1832: Stoke look like making it a quartet of Deadline-Day signings, with the news that deals for Eidur Gudjohnsen (from Monaco), Jermaine Pennant (from Real Zaragoza) and Marc Wilson (from Portsmouth) were all pushed through before the 1800 BST deadline. Official confirmation on those expected soon.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Everton have loaned Joseph Yobo to Fenerbahce for the remainder of the season. Could potentially spell some game time for Duffy in the cups.
A Stokes gone to Celtic, what price now to be top scorer in the SPL?
Jermaine Pennant's agent must be the most handsome man in the world. It's a mystery to me why clubs keep buying that waster.
Hope Lawrence got out or there's a good risk he won't make Stoke's 25-man squad tomorrow (teams are naming their squads at 5 p.m. tomorrow).
'Potential' Irish players supposedly on the move- Cox going on loan to Reading, Naughton on loan to Sheffield Utd.
