Manchester United are preparing to go on a massive January spending spree without actually putting their collective hand in their owners small pockets.
Spurred on by the cheap one-footed gamble Michael Owen's success, and the growing speculation that his old England team-mate Sol Campbell could be joining the Old Trafford outfit, manager Sir Alex 'Mr Angry' Ferguson has drawn up a list of so called over the hill players he wants to sign which no-one else in their right mind would touch with a barge-pole.
He has not publicly divulged the list to the media but luckily club Ambassador Bryan Robson was spotted in the Coach & Horses in Salford yesterday morning by our Manchester correspondent and he spilled the beans.
Robson said this 'I'm not telling you anything about the January transfer plans!.....end of girlfriend!'. Then after 2 hours of our man plying Robson with 10 pints and 20 tequila slammers 'Right, ok, he's (Ferguson) is hoping to get Campbell to sure up defence, he's gonna solve the Goalkeeping crisis by bringing back former City favorite Peter Schmeichel, who as it turns out is actually younger than Edwin Van Der Sar!. To add steel to the midfield I've agreed to rejoin on a free from my team The Slug & Lettuce, then for a bit of wing wizardry he's gonna get Ryan Giggs to come out of retirement. He wanted an extra striker so he called his mate and fellow foreigner Kenny Dalglish but he's already got an offer from Rafa to play for Liverpool to replace Torres when he signs for City!' Robson slurred'.
