Your daily morning review of the news. Like The Wright Stuff but without that disconcerting glazed look of his...

Today: Phil Brown's latest hunt for Campbell, Beckham wants to play at the World Cup, but then again isn't fussed if he doesn't go. Apparently...

The Mirror

"Hull poised for January bid for Sunderland striker"

As if they've got nothing better to do now the transfer window has shut, the Mirror are once again linking Phil Brown with a move for Sunderland's new striker Frazier Campbell. Ignoring the fact that he snubbed them last season to sign for Spurs on loan, then chose Sunderland over Hull this time round, it didn't stop the papers linking him with a move again just a week ago in exchange for Michael Turner. This was, of course, blown out of the water by Steve Bruce. Just a few days later and what do we see? Another story linking him with a move to Hull in January. Has Phil Brown got a good media source at one of his tanning salons?

"Beckham rules out Notts County move"

The most ridiculous name linked to Notts County since, well, since Pavel Nedved last week, Beckham has claimed to have had no contact with Sven regarding a move to Meadow Lane. He's instead attempting to hawk himself around Europe's top clubs again in an effort to get in to the England squad. Weren't you listening to Sol the other day Becks? He reckons you he'll get in playing League Two football...

The Sun

"I fear the end of the Worlds!"

Dave also appears in today's Sun, in a non-story about him fearing for his World Cup place as Fabio the Godfather will pick his strongest possible squad, which may not include Goldennads. No shizzle, David. "If I'm not selected...I would accept that. I'm an England fan and if I don't end up being in a squad that goes to South Africa, that won't mean I don't support the lads and want them to win," he lied.

Daily Star

"Harry made it hell for me"

International goal thief Dave Nugent has claimed that the way loveable rogue Harry "Meeja playa" Redknapp treated him at Pompey dented his confidence. He also complained that he was constantly played out on the wing, so to be fair he did well to get into those goalscoring positions we saw him miss from every week. But if our instincts are right and this famous clip depicts Nugent's errant shot, Harry had a few reasons not to play his £6m (SIX MILLION) hitman.

The Guardian

"Paddy Kenny gets nine month ban for failed drugs test"

The Guardian are leading with the story about chubby-but-no-longer-that-chubby-and-now-we-might-know-why goalkeeper Paddy Kenny, who has been handed a ban (they're so last week) after testing positive for the stimulant ephedrine. They claim he escaped a two year ban because there are mitigating circumstances. Apparently the drug is found in some cold remedies, which is the only way it found itself in Kenny's system. Which firstly means that the ban seems very harsh, and also makes you wonder how no other footballers suffer from colds?
