SM would like to apologise for the delay in creation of the Game World due to server problems, this was due to the high number of managers clicking and waiting on the Game World during creation and immediately after creation.

We have decided to move all current and future Gold Game Worlds to their own dedicated server to resolve this issue. This will also mean that Gold Game Worlds will be quick to use and have their matches played instantly.

We will also be changing the way they are created in future, making them in advance but locked and then simply opening them at the designated time.

Again sorry for these problems and any inconvenience caused.

FC Barcelona

European and Spainish champions Barcelona have revealed they are close to announcing a deal which will see two world-class players joining the club. It is believed both players are undergoing a medical and the final details are being completed.

Meanwhile, Zlatan Ibrahimovic can leave the club after being told he is not wanted by new manager Title Aspirations. The Swede, who only recently joined the Spainish giants has been attracting interest from a host of clubs and it is thought that another Spainish side is close to his signature...

Gone Too Soon - Ibrahimovic leaving already?

It is believed that Barca are looking to sign more Spainish players and names such as Cesc FABREGAS, Fernando TORRES and Raul ALBIOL are being touted as possible targets by the media...

Arsenal

Arsenal would like to apologise to all managers who are interested in their players but we are not looking to offload any players after the recent departures of TOURE and ADEBAYOR have left us a little short in some areas, this will however give youth a chance to shine in cup and some league games.

Some fringe players may be available for loan after the transfer dealings have been concluded, please check the loan list for details as if they are not on the list then they are not available.

Good luck to all managers for the upcoming season

6 years to Make Sheffield United a European force!

When James applied to be Sheffield United manager he knew it was going to be tough, but today the chairman announced a 6 year plan for the club which if it goes to plan Sheffield United should be a major force in Europe! The media are shocked by this crazy plan from the Chairman at Sheffied United!

This comes after the shock of Sheffield United signing up an unknown manager called James. James has signed a 2 year deal at Sheffield United with the option to extend it if United gain promotion to the top flight. In a press conferance today James was greeted by lots of nervous United fans, also he was given a tour of Bramhall Lane. At 2pm he was shown to the media and this is what he said,

"Sheffield is a big City and they deserve a big football club to go with it. I believe with the help of all the fans, staff and the chairman that I can take Sheffield United to the top flight of English Football. What I want to do at United is a long term plan and for this a good youth team is essential and thats what is going to be Key to the success of this football club over the next few years!"

Sheffield United hope to unveil some new signings that can't be named at this time but will come clearer tomorrow!

Sunderland

After days of being endlessly ridiculed in the north east for becoming the manager of sunderland Geordie Boy Chris Davies gave his first interview since signing on the dotted line.

What have the last few days been like for you?

''Ever since i signed on the dotted line 2 days ago i knew a dificult task lay ahead of me, ive had members of the public brand me a judas, but when i was offered this job i knew i couldnt turn it down'

What Does the Future Hold for Sunderland?

''My first goal here is to build an all English squad. This is a ENGLISH leauge and for that you need English players that know the leauge inside out. These days there are too many teams out there bringing in lavish forign signings. Me i want to go back to the roots of football and establish a solid english team.''

How is that going right now?

''Well luckily we had a fair few quality englishmen in the squad already, like Darren Bent and Keiren Richardson proven England Internationals. Other then them so far i have managed to bring in 4 new faces. Paul Robinson, Stephen Warnock, Micheal Ball have all gone straight into the squad for todays game. Then we have Sol Campbell who is under going a medical and is all but a sunderland player. I have to say tho this is a harder task than i first thought it would be. Deals are proving very hard to come by at the moment.''

Where do you realisticly belive you can finish this season?

''It is my main aim at the club to build a squad of English players that can challenge for a place in the Top 6 and have a good cup run. other the next 3 years i fully expect us to win atleast one trophy.''

So there you have it folks the first interview from the sunderland manager chris Davies.

Davies also would like me to mention that the entire of his squad that are not english are available for part exchange for English players. He would also urge any managers with english players they dont want or need to get in touch with him imidiately as his search for english tallent goes on.

Modric Arrives at Spartak

Playmaker Luka Modric was Spartak's first signing on a deal that involved 10 million cash, 20 year old Rafael Carioca, and 27 year old Raphael Alex. Manager Rolando Espino said he was looking for three players. He didn't say names, but he did say he was looking for a striker, an attacking mid, and a right back. What a better way to impress fans than to bring the famous and talented Croatian sensation. "I am here to help out this team and win some ball games" stated the 23 year old. "Yes, he was one of the 3 players that we had our eyes on and we hope to sign the other 2 before the first SMFA Shield game" said Espino when asked about the 2 other players.

Re: Gold Championship 68 Match Reports/News/Transfers Thread

- L'EQUIPE -

les Girondins get the ball rolling

After only the recent sacking of Laurent Blanc, Bordeaux have turned to long time Ligue 1 admirer and follower, Kylan, who has previously managed at clubs such as Lille, Marseille, and Toulouse and EPL side, Tottenham. The change has surprised many after Blanc's success at the club, but after some heated discussions with the board, and rumours of rifts between players, involving Blanc, the club saw fit to terminate his contract. New gaff Kylan has already said he'll look to continue to play an agressive attacking style, with creative formations, and has already ruled out the possiblity of some of Bordeaux's superstar players leaving the club for other destinations. He has also announced the signings of 2 new players, this is what he had to say at the press conference earlier on;

Firstly it's great to be appointed to such a club, a club which such great history to have had some of the best players to ever grace the pitch in this game of football: Cantona, Deschamps, Micoud, Wiltord and perhaps the greatest of all, ZIZOU! Surely with the players we have now, nothing but success will be demanded, as it should be. This is nothing new for me having perviously led winning sides to Ligue 1 title's, so anyone here, or anywhere in the media that would question my experience and knowledge of Ligue 1 can get stuffed! As for new coming players to the squad, I can confirm the signing of 2 new players to the side, which we are elated with their arrivals. Lastly on the matter of players such as Saivet, Chamakh and Gourcuff, I can confirm numerous parties have enquired about these players, but we Bordeaux, have given all a swift response that they are NOT FOR SALE, that is my word and as such is beyond contestation on the matter!

Bordeaux Transfer News

Bordeaux have signed up and coming Swede, Daniel Nordmark from Swedish side, Elfsborg for a fee of £1.7 million. Nordmark was on display earlier on today at le Stade Chaban Delmas displaying some of his skills to the home crowd. Kylan paid tribute to Lazio manager, Nick Justice during the unveiling of Nordmark, saying, "Me and Nick, with a few others went to paint the town, got propa olivered and all, and while at a strip joint, i asked him about any new talents on the scene, where he then told me about Nordmark, so a big thanks to him."

Bordeaux's biggest signing to date under Kylan's reign, and probably the biggest name ever to grace the back of a FCGB kit is that of Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, bought at a transfer fee of £12.5 million. The manager had this to say, "Firstly before we even put a bid through on Jan, we had to make sure we could fit his name on the back of one of our kits, from there on it was smooth sailing. As soon as we contacted him, both parties where keen on a deal getting done. This will probably be out last signing for the duration of the season as we feel we have a squad that is now complete afer acquiring both Nordmark and Vennegoor of Hesselink." Pictured above, Vennegoor of Hesselink was unveiled after Nordmark, clearly already becoming a fan fave, after being given a cardboard sized version of himself.

5:1

Ibazaga 11 | Fuertes 56

Olic 47,78,80 |

Gonzalo 79 |

Villarreal got off to the new season with a fantastic 5-1 victory at home to Sporting. Ibagaza opened the scoring in the 11th minute after Rossi put him through. Olic got on the end of a cross from Cani and Fuertes pulled one back for Sporting in the 56th minute.

Olic added a second with a piece of genius as he nutmegged the centre back Gerard and smashed home from 10 yards. Sporting gave away possesion easily to Ibazaga who tore down the left wing and managed to pull the ball back to Gonzalo who side footed high into the net. Olic got his third as he got on the end of spilled shot from Rossi to get a hat-trick on his debut.

This came after a busy day on the transfer front for Villarreal after completing the signing of Henrik Larsson from Helsinborg on a one year deal for 3m. Olic and Tymoshuck also joined for Santi Carzola in a Part Exchange deal. Golden had this to say after the match," I'm very impressed at how the team did, especially with Olic who had only a few hours to get used to Spain and then later scored a Hat-trick! I just hope he can continue. I was also impressed with Tymo as he impressed with his tackling and passing. Henrik will get lots of games in the cups and shields and I personally think he is a superb signing".

Great start for Villarreal after Barca and Real Madrid both lost to Valladolid and Espanyol respectively.
