Shay Given....

Recommended Posts

Seems strange that their is nothing in the papers especially since the odds have been dropped! If theres inside knowledge you would expect at least one media outlet to know about!! certainly seems like alot of hearsay right now!! It does seem to me that the source of all of the rumours probably is this thread!! Its just going around in circles!!

Would love it to happen though!

Well he's lined up to start for Man C tonight.

Goalkeeper Shay Given is expected to return to Manchester City's starting line-up in Tuesday's FA Cup third round replay against Leicester City.

It will be the Irish international's first senior appearance in a month but manager Roberto Mancini is quick to point out that Joe Hart remains his preferred custodian.

Roberto Mancini may rest Joe Hart for Manchester City's FA Cup third-round replay against Leicester on Tuesday night after voicing concerns over the England goalkeeper's concentration levels.

Nothing about Given starting on the BBC:

Manchester City plan to utilise their vast depth for the FA Cup third-round replay, with veteran midfielder Patrick Vieira given a rare start.

With Mario Balotelli injured and Edin Dzeko ineligible, Jerome Boateng, James Milner, David Silva, Jo and Joleon Lescott are also likely to feature.

Not that it means anything lol

If we end up signing given aswell i wonder how long it will take before the FA and premier league start keeping a very close eye on our relationship with Man City. Of course nothing wrong is being done, but it wont stop them being suspicious...

yeah cus they took a massive interest in the Preston Man Utd relationship when Fergie Jr was there

Surely that's more a case of nepotism though.

*just realised you meant that they didn't take an interest!*

I am sure he is trying to go somewhere else, probably another premiership team but if in a week or so nothings happened, wouldn't be surprised if he would consider Leicester. Lets face it Leicester would not be his first choice by any means, so tonights game wont mean that much imo

I don't think it matters that he will be playing us. If he is leaving he wouldn't want to be cup tied whoever they were playing. Especially as they only have one game left in the cup :scarf:

Shay a Given cert for Leicester - errm heres hoping, surely hes too good / expensive / wont want to drop down a division etc etc for us??? i hope the rumour is true though

Latest I've read is that Given will be missing his 7th game in a row tonight.

Er. Why would the fa care that our managers like each other?

i was thinking more along the lines of why so many deals are done than our managers liking each other.

and why would the FA care? because they really are that annoying. i swear they do it on purpose.

Just so im not being misunderstood - i don't think they SHOULD care. it was a dig at the FA. :thumbup:

If he's playing tonight then there's no way he can be joining us, surely?! What's his motivation for winning? OK he's a professional but it'd be bizzarre to say the least.

Thought Sven said on the radio this isn't going to happen?

Didn't hear it myself, but my Dad told me thats what was said.

Happy to be corrected though!

Sven didn't say no, he said that it would be up to Given if he wanted to drop down a league, sounded like he had inquired though. Stringer has put words into Svens mouth.

Maybe Sven told Stringer something outside of the RL interview?
