Excellent news greets me this morning for getting up so gosh darn early:

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has told Europe's leading clubs there is no way he is selling David Beckham.
The England skipper has been linked with several top clubs since a dressing room bust up with Ferguson after the FA Cup defeat to Arsenal.

However, Ferguson insists Beckham will not be sold.

"It is totally out of the question," Ferguson said. "There is no way we would sell him - or any of our best players."

I guess that means "No more hits with shoes in your face David!" :D

Funny you would mention the papers. The instant Man Utd. go level on points with ASSernal, the tabloids start with their tear down the one at the top routine. So typical. Of course its rubbish, but it sells papers over there.

Yeah, I was there when that story broke - the day of the draw no less. I guess they needed something after the day and a half staight of the "Shearer wants back in England squad" press orgy...
