Manchester United's title bid took a small hiccup after Newcastle held them to a 2-2 draw at St. James Park denying them a nine-point lead over Chelsea on New Year's day.

Pressley has agreed to an 18-month deal with Scottish Premier League leader
Celtic. In the process, Pressley rejected the chance to move to Charlton, where
he had undergone a routine medical test as well.

Pearce insisted that Chelsea had not make any move for teen sensation Micah

After

seems to be having the last laugh, at least at the end of this year, after a
