It's still getting worse for Thaksin.....

The Supreme Court's section for political office holders on Friday agreed to open a new case against ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra on charges of abuse of power in pushing a state loan to Burma to help his family's telecoms empire.

The court set September 16 as the first day of the trial which will examine whether Thaksin abused his position as prime minister when he ordered the state-owned EXIM Bank to extend a loan of 1 billion baht (30 million dollars) to Burma's military regime in 2004 to develop its telecommunications infrastructure to the benefit of Shin Corp, then owned by the Shinawatra family.

So Sparkys wages come from alleged illegal loans and monies allegedly stolen from the Thai Lottery. Not to mention the sale of land owned by the state to his companies and family for peanuts. This has already been proven.

Meanwhile the average wage in the country is £120 per month.

Still smiling Sparky?

On radio this morning that Frank is looking to sell Shiteh... 'There may be trouble ahead...'

can anyone tell me what spurs are thinking about?

they have two keepers. fair enough. and they have a LOT of defenders, but are any of the any good really?

woodgate is class. the same is bale, but the other TEN? who are they gonna play? king and dawson? haha not to scary!

midfield is PACKED aswell. but to be fair they do have a decent lineup, but 11 midfielders is a tiny bit over the top! they have bentley, modric and dos santos, lennon and jenas plus a bunch of average ones.

and only two strikers! darren bent being one of them. how are they going to set the world alight with only half a team that is really good??? those people cant be for real.

Its precisely why Spurs won't get anywhere near the champions league places in my view. Woodgate and King are bound to get injured at some point and the rest of their central defenders are crap.

its all a bit weird. i have been thinking that they should have a great team this season, but then i had a closer look and all they have is modric and bentley who will be great in midfield, and berbatov up front. they must have some of the largest squads in the prem, but it is packed with half-decent players. and only two real strikers?? :blink:

Maybe that's why they are being linked with Corluka, I rate him. King and Woodie are bound to get injured as always, there defence is there achilles.

Dos Santos looks a good player, I also like Huddlestone. They'll be there or there abouts this year, but as always they'll lose to the Rovers! :rover:

Spurs first team is high qualtity going forward:

-----------Bent

---------------Dos Santos

---Bale-------Modric---------------Bentley

-----------------------Zakora

Gilberto----Woodgate---King----Hutton

---------------------Gomes

It is hard to argue that the team does not have real quality. Plus they will sign at least one big name striker, maybe two once Berbatov goes. As others have pointed out they do have problems defensively. There is not a lot of bite in that tem, Zakora has failed to convince as a defensive player, and having such a ridiculously large squad causes issues as players dobn't get enough games, get injured and get unsettled and create discord.

If they go out and sign a proper left winger as it probs on the cards too, plus Corluka, then a lot of players are not going to know where they stand. What is the future for Lennon, Jenas, Boateng, Dawson, Roche, Gunter?

If they sort themselves out they can be a very good side, but I can see them running into the same problems again and again.

Things aren't looking good for Everton and their stadium plans:

http://www.evertonfc.com/news/archive/stadium-called-in.html

also

http://www.nsno.co.uk/news-3657.html

"Everton's proposed move to Kirkby has been "called in" by central government and will face a full public enquiry which could delay the scheme for up to 18 months.

Keith Wyness, Everton's former CEO, had gone on record stating that a government call in would kill the scheme off from Everton's point of view as the increasing costs would take the scheme out of Everton's reach financially."

The transfer window has not closed yet. You should not speak too soon. You need to be afraid Hawkiiz....... and possibly very afraid. :unsure:

Scan of the papers shows:

- Ashley is going to deny Newcastle are for sale (having failed to sell them),

- Chelsea bidding £19m for Robinho

- Calderon under pressure at Real Madrid having failed to buy Ronaldo

- Young and Shorey have both signed for Villa

- and not Premier League yet but Dowie is staying at QPR

and this preview of Hull City is a cracker..

These are good ones as well from the BBC-

Liverpool's owners have failed to raise the cash to sign Gareth Barry from Aston Villa and now the move could be off - again. (Daily Mirror)

Newcastle owner Mike Ashley is set to incur the wrath of boss Kevin Keegan by demanding forward Alan Smith be sold to Everton. (Various)

:lol:
