In the absence of rumours....

[MrMichael]

...lets play a new game I've just made up. Its the Est1892 Rumour prediction game. Not transfer prediction, rumour prediction.

Basically the deal is (making it up as he goes along), you have to predict transfer rumours that will then appear at a later point in a sensible media outlet, at least 48hrs in advance I reckon. I'm considering only using the bbc rumours feed (338 on teletext) and skysports.com as the acid tests. The more ridiculous or amusing the rumour that actually comes off in the papers, obviously the more points you get. Getting the quoted price (if any) gets a bonus, but there is no bonus if the transfer is actually completed. Millions of extra points are available if you can show that you put your rumour out elsewhere and it is that which made it to the media. Points wil be docked if any rumour is shown to be lifted from that dodgy rumours website

A good examle would be; Beckham to Newcastle (ha, quite ridiculous, very funny) = 574 points.

Scoring is based on a complex mathmatical principle known as "total arbitration," My calculations will obviously be unquestionable or I'll get Scully to ban you :D

I'll start, Van Horseface to Spurs (12m), Gattuso to Everton (8m) and Buffon to Arsenal (10m)

Hmmm, like it.

Zambrotta to Real Madrid (

Good idea, I posted this potential rumour on the insider blog the other day.

Carrick to United, leaving the way for Owen Hargreaves to join spurs(as Martin Jol loves buying centre mids)

Arse, Buffon to Arsenal's in today's Mirror, T genuinely did pull that off the top of my head, if only I'd thought this up 2 days ago then everyone else wouldn't be on 0 and me on -5 already. Lame :wall:

considering awarding Kermy38 points just for bravery, although they may well be docked for no reason at all at a later point. :D

[Rich]

You heard it here first......

Hamann to Bolton, no wait, Man City, no, erm, Bolton? Maybe. Man City possibly....:D

[MrMichael]

Nobody got Bjorn Runstrom to Fulham, I'm very disappointed in you all :o

[BrandonKop]

Cannavaro to Chelski - 12M
Warnock to Charlton- 2M
Traore to Shed utd - 1 M
Ronaldoo to Barca -15M
Thuram to Arsenal- 3M

[scarface]

camoranesi to scum 6mil
robben to madrid 20mil
campbell to lyon free
nesta to barca 10mil

[MrMichael]

Well, some abject points scoring this week. Scores are as follows

Rush86 + 56 (SWP to Barcodes)
BrandonKop + 40 (Cannavaro to Chavski)
Kermy38 + 7 (bravery)
Everyone else still has 0, apart from
Me - 10 (stupidity)

If anyone has any other claims... tough :D

This weeks highest potential scores would have been for Defoe to ManUre (15m), Thuram to Spurs and Traore to Bolton, all of which wouldv'e been 100 points +. If we do ever sell Diao some entrants will get a bonus of 1000 points btw :sigh:

Some new ones;

Torres to Portsmouth (20m),
Mellor to Sheff U (1m),
Viera to ManUre (5m)
Ronaldo to Spurs (All the pies)

Micah Richards to Arsenal (
