    I only saw the last few minutes of the Orlando Pirates - Man U match, but Dean Saunders gave MOTM to Darron Gibson.

    It will be interesting to see whether Fergie keeps him at Old Trafford or loans him out this season. I think that this is the season that will decide whether his future will be at Old Trafford or not. I think he has a decent future from what I've seen of him, a good passer of the ball.

    Gibson had a brilliant game. His passing range was fantastic. Other than that I thought Wes Brown and Carlos Tevez were very good.

    It was Paul Parker who gave him Man of the Match not Dean Saunders.
    LESS OF THE BULL NOW!

    McGeady gave Luke Young a tough game tonight. Beat him a few times to set up all of Celtic's chances in the first half. Not so good in the 2nd though.

    I read he's going to Sheffield United on a season long loan...
    I pity the fool!.... But suggest ways that he might improve himself.

    Fergie's latest comments on Darron Gibson.

    "Darron Gibson went to Wolves last season and injuries, as well as a family bereavement, derailed his time there. He needs to get football – he’s a big, powerful lad with good feet and he has a chance".

    Alan Judge played in the starting line up on the right wing for Blackburn and was widely seen as the only positive on Blackburns's messages boards after our resounding 4-2 win on Saturday - appears to be full of running and apparently skinned our left back a couple of times. Still only 19, midfielder/forward with 7 in 15 for the reserves last season might see him edge through this season. Keith Treacy also came on as sub.

    From Wolves perspective, Foley and Keogh were up for MOTM displays - Kevin Foley was meant to have been excellent having kept Pedersen out of the game, Keogh was lively scoring a poachers goal (something his game needs more of) and even Stephen Ward appears to be winning over his knockers having a good game at left wing where he is preferred for his strength, aerial threat from set pieces and ability to join in with the forwards - seems a lot more mobile this season having watched him against Wrexham - although is more a natural striker (would be good to see him progress like Jon Walters though.

    Roll on next weekend.

    Saw the first half of Newcastle's 1-0 loss to Mallorca. Given didn't play at all. Duff started on the left. Took a while to get into the game, as did most of the Newcastle team, but there was a lot of the old Duff-style play, taking on opponents with the ball, beating them, and trying to get in crosses. Unfortunately they were playing with Alan Smith up front alone, so the crosses weren't much use. He moved in to the centre as the half progressed, and finished in the outside right position towards the end of the half. He had one decent chance to score when he collected the ball on the far corner of the penalty area with his back to goal, turned and shot wide. Didn't see the second half, but according to the official site, he played the full 90 minutes.
    According to my Newcastle following friend, he had the best chance of their 1-0 loss to Doncaster, when he beat half the team, got clean through, and shot straight at the keeper.
    Incidentally, that was Newcastle's third 1-0 loss on the bounce in pre season. And their first game is against Man United at Old Trafford. Could be a long season for the Geordies.

    Good news. It would be nice to see Judge, S Reid, Duff, Nolan and Treacy all playing in the Blackburn first team by the end of the season. Stranger things have happened.

    Gibson / Garvan Pre-Season News

    Apparently Darren Gibson scored a 30-yard screamer for United against Peterborough United tonight... United won 2-0.

    Also, Owen Garvan scored for Ipswich when they lost 5-3 against West Ham... Think he signed a new contract there today too. And Alan Lee scored for them too.
