BIG day for the prem today.

Avram Grant gets fired, Fullham release eight players and everyone seems to be calling for more money to be spent on players.

The big news would have to be Fullham loosing Carlos Bocanegra (good news for the MLS, though, eh bedir?), Jari Litmanen, Ian Pierce, Philippe Christanval, Simon Elliot, Bjorn Runstrom, Ismael Ehui and Michael Timlin (and Paul Stalteri leaves after completing his loan spell). Not all were big impact players, true, but this certainly leaves a few holes that will need filling.

The Avram Grant firing wasn't entirely unexpected, so I don't consider that to be particularly big news...
