Rumours that the Owls are about to take Shane Long on loan from Reading and as Sturrock, who just mentioned a Premiership team, said "the wee laddie is having a think about it". Owls currently have no fit striker and it would be a short term deal.
Yeah, I was wondering about Finnan. He didn't make the match squad.

Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
Willo Flood scored an excellent goal for Cardiff at the weekend:

They won 1-0 and are top of the league alongside Birmingham.
Liam Miller played for United's RESERVES as they thumped Preston 7-2 in the Lancashire Cup, he really needs to look for a move to get senior football.
The game was noteworthy for Alan Smith's first start since breaking his leg nearly 6 months ago.

leicester v macclesfield 2-0
McCarthy, Maybury and Logan all started and finished this one, Maybury back in the reckoning after his move to sunderland hit some delays and is on the back burner for now.Logan made his senior debut and did all required in a game where leicester were generally fairly comfortable, he kicked very well and convincingly dealt with a couple of 'edge of the area' moments one in particular where a McCarthy backheader was well short and did him no favours at all.he also came out on top in a couple of one on ones.he didnt have many crosses to deal with as the opponents struggled to set up sustained posession beyond halfway.he had one scuffed kick from his weaker left foot which went to a opponent, but luckily it was outside shooting range.
Maybury did ok, he played at l.b. but delivered poor quality into the box on more than one occasion.not tested defensively much.
McCarthy played well within himself for the most part, he was sloppy with a couple of back-headers but generally untroubled, and he rounded his 90 off nicely with a goal from a corner near the end, he made a run to the back post and headed it low back across the goal for his first of the season, to kill the tie.
on an evening when leicester fielded 5 academy lads there was still no place in the 16 for Alan Sheehan.
match report here, with Logan recieving some praise on his debut

Donal McDermott played for Man City's reserve side as they drew 1-1 in the Pontin's League with a Chester City reserve side containing a few senior players. Neither review mentions him at all, so I can't tell how he played.

I see Colin Doyle played again for Brum at Cardiff. McPahail played well but I don't know if Flood played.
Most interesting thing I saw on BBC Teletext was about Kevin Thornton who scored Coventry's late winner today. Coventry's manager was quoted on Teletext as saying something like Thornton's got all the talent in the world but has serious attitude problems and knows what he has to do to keep himself in the team. Sound familiar?
You'd think someone would be there to advise Kevin given his brother's mistakes.
Anthony Stokes due to make his loan debut for Falkirk against Rangers in a couple of weeks.
Steve Finnan started for Liverpool
Andy Reid starts for Charlton, Matt Holland on the bench
Alan Quinn on the bench for Sheff U
Keano starts at Tottenham
Kilbane + Carsley start at Everton
John O'Shea starts at Man U, Gavin Mahon starts at Watford
Doyle starts for Reading, Stack, Long and Hunt on the bench. Kavanagh and Connolly on the bench for Wigan
Darren Potter and Gary Breen start for Wolves
Updates:
Alan Mahon has scored for Burnley, David Connolly on in the 20th minute for Wigan, he had a hand in Heskey's goal according to the radio announcers...Doyle hasnt had too many chances yet, Reading isnt playing well, though apparently he is one of the best players for them so far. Kilbane has been sent off at Everton. Stephen Hunt is on for Reading, Kavanagh about to come on, Kavanagh just nearly scored, Connolly sent him clean through, Shane Long on now. All reports say Connolly played very well for Wigan, could've had 3, 4 assists, and if he wasnt offside once late, couldve scored, and that Doyle was probably man of the match for Reading, though he didnt have many chances as Reading did not play very well at all......................Andy Reid played well for Charlton, he sent Darren Bent through into the box that led to Charlton's first goal. Not much of an international prospect, but John or JJ (I think JJ's his nickname) Melligan scored for Cheltenham. Dublin-born 24-year old defender. Jason McAteer on late for Tranmere, Mark Kinsella not in the squad this week after starting every week since the beginning of the season

Soccernet reported that On loan Charlton Keeper Daren Randolph had a Superb game for Gillingham, while Wes Houlihan had an Outstanding game for Blackpool in the same match!!
I read Houlihan had a great game in the Carling cup for Blackpool this week also... How old is he at this stage???
Stokes is at Falkirk? When did this happen?![]()
Speaking of Falkirk, Apparantly Celtic are watching Patrick Cregg with a view of signing him. He has impressed since joining them from Arsenal.
