They'll come good any day now....

A very non dodgy 3 for Christmas please Santa Berkshiresaint. Mind you, if 5 includes all the multi billionaires from the other options, giving all their money to supporters for us to invest, then I'd have that.

Crumbs. I wasn't really thinking that League 1 with -10 points was going to be a recurring thing. Hoping that there will be three worse teams than us, until we can get a new owner.

You're both in our thoughts here Winnersaint. So pleased to hear you've had some more positive news, in such a difficult time.

In a recent interview with a group wanting to take over West Ham they saw the club, and stadium, as part of a wider redevelopment. The profits from the sources in that area were key to their project. Just as an example of some specific geography being important in a take over.

Remember that, as we join the Replace Flooring campaign, you might want to consider knee pads. It's not quick, can be a lot of hard work and quite wearing. Like something else... nope, it's gone...🙂

Nice to see this back, Minsk.

On my wishlist for Christmas.

After the 3rd, the radio commentators started to downgrade the opposition. But this was a good win. A minute after the final whistle and "i suppose the only ctiticism is that they should have scored more". As if they had to look for criticisms right away, and that's all they had tonight.

I just liked the prestige of having a European based scout. I thought they just put a flat cap and a raincoat on the black box and sent it up to Stoke. But that data analytics book I read, tells me it's all done on steroid enhanced versions of football manager these days.

Looked to the sky on reading Adam Hammill, in case one of his shoot on sight efforts was finally coming out of orbit. Glovesman could easily be an international goalie/spy franchise.

The parallel universe of MLT, where his talent got proper international recognition... ... and where burgers are a health superfood.

I read that, thinking "Jack Stephens" was going to be next. 🙂

I get a bit gloomy on our chances when I see experienced players replaced with less experienced players. But at least the club has a strategy of buying youth talent on the verge of regular first team appearances. Which is better than just random youth talent, or squad fillers. We're clearly not shopping in the same places as other teams at the moment, so I can only hope it's enough. I remind myself I'm gloomy nearly every season, and we've stayed up this far. 🙂 Still want someone to win the ball in midfield though...

Desperately lacking a Long so they can play their traditional 4-3-3. C'Mon Barca, there's 90mins left!

If only Small had decided to go for that first day of training, and he'd have been told he was in their plans. Lucky us. He's still more likely to play regularly for us though, if he's any good.

Checking Over Land and Sea's spiffy contracts thread... and he was in his last season. Having been offered to Blackburn, and being dropped regulraly enough, I guess he wasn't going to sign. So a deadline day deal for whatever we could get. Can only hope for a sell on %. A Buy back is what Chelsea do for their feeder clubs, like....oh.... 🙂 Real were only minutes away from offering that £180m they had buring a hole in their pocket as well...

Both probably true.

You're training by yourself and will have to apologise for mouthing off. = clearing the air.

I was hoping for some competition for Romeu. Were the club not rummaging around in the French market for late/last day deals?

SaintsWeb news understands that Jim White will be on talksport for the last hour of the transfer window. Crook also offering opinions as well as twitter rumours there too, throughput the day. So it should be safe elsewhere.

Took the proof being in the pudding a bit too literally?

... Wilshere

Kitman Mark Forbes seems most likely to organise a clean sheet.

Had we transfer pennies to spend, I doubt he'd be given the title. But someone out of the experience that's left gets the spin. Did well last week and hope it continues.
