Harrison Reed - Official: Signs for Fulham
Charlie Wayman replied to washsaint's topic in The Saints
Fulham one step closer to PL football next season. If they make it why would he want to come back here to an uncertain future? He has left the safety of the nest, learned to fly and now surviving on his own. -
Imagine if he was rehabilitated here displaced McCarthy and we ended up giving him another contract at even more money. 😬

Keeping Track of the Contracts 2024-25
Charlie Wayman replied to Over land and sea's topic in The Saints
New deal for JWP to keep him here to 2025. Um, what were we saying about Reed's inflexible long & expensive contracts? Now time to ink those deals for Bertrand and Romeu, Mr Semmens -
Saints CEO Martin Semmens interview - 26th July 2020
Charlie Wayman replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
Thanks for posting. Nothing revelatory on offer and a tad over optimistic about getting the fans back in but comes across as a straightforward honest bloke. -
Nice way to sign off once Ralph had dragged them off the beach at HT. Romeu deserves MotM by a country mile but strikers get all the accolades so no doubt Adams will get it. Pleased for him 'though. It'll be a tougher league next season and a good start will be vital. We have momentum but there are also some concerns about lapsing into complacency as we saw in the first half today. It puzzles me how this can happen and why they need a bollocking from Ralph at HT to get them purring again. It's not the first time this has happened this season and not even the first time since the Restart.

People are at high risk from 65 onwards whatever their medical condition which must cover a sizeable chunk of our fanbase and contributors on here.

Nutshell. If there is to be a second wave of this bloody virus we will know by October. If there is the rest of the season is likely to be behind closed doors. As you say no point at all in handing over your money and then having to fight to get it back. To Dave Foggy: There is worrying evidence emerging that the numbers of new infections and deaths are no longer falling and some recent evidence suggests that they have started climbing again. It is not scare mongering, the virus is still very much with us and we are a long way from being out of the woods. Why are you in denial so much, not everything in life is a conspiracy.
-
All fully explained earlier in this thread. Question generally is why have we not been shown the press conference on the OS?
-
It's a tough call even so. Will they let people in at all? Will there be a ballot? If successful, will you like the seat they allocate to you? How will you feel if you see somebody else sitting in your usual seat because that's how the allocation worked out? Then there's the risk! All in all best left for a year until things hopefully return to normal even if it means giving up your usual seat.

No doubt a feeling reciprocated by your long suffering wife 🤗

When HMS Ark Royal was launched in 1937 it cost £30m and was hailed as the best aircraft carrier in the world. When HMS Prince of Wales was launched last year it had cost £4 billion etc Not much point in hiding your savings under the mattress.

'fraid not! Hopefully Saints give us a free pass, otherwise £9.99 for the day pass or....
-
Wonder if we'll get a free pass if it's on Sky.
-
Thanks. No takers for Saints v Blades then.
-
...and so to Sunday. The PL website suggests none of the games are being televised. Really? I googled and drew a blank there as well. No TV allocations listed. Does anybody know what's happening. Surely Sky are not going to miss this chance to sign off the season?
-
Credit where it is due. Was it a guess or the result of deep seated understanding of the nature of our game and the strengths and frailties of our players?
-
Absolutely we must not let him go, he's almost half our team in creativity alone. Very clever player. Surely if Long is worth an extension then Bertie has to be worth a solid new contract. I would tear my hair out if he ends up in the Blue shirt of Everton or Leicester. Somehow this seems unlikely, he has serious business interests in the Home Counties and probably it suits him nicely to play here but if a big London club like Arsenal or Tottenham come calling then he probably would leave for a last hurrah while still being within each of his Surrey home.
-
Not quite top half though. Mind you folks at the early season fans forum said they would be happy if we ended up 13th. Going to be a tough act to match this next season.
-
The sign of a good team is that it can play fairly poorly yet still dig out a win - a bit like Man U over the years. This was Saints yesterday. Seems teams can only break down our system by long balls over the top. Not very clever and boring as hell to watch. If this is all that Howe can offer then Bournemouth will do well to pension him off and start again. As it is they are going down and will not be back for quite a while. Kyle Walker-Peters may well attract interest from other clubs in the close season and signing him on may not be the slam-dunk rescue-him-from-obscurity mission that we thought it might be. The lad looks good, very good and not only is he looking increasingly like International material but his price is going up by the match. What a pair of full backs we have. Are you watching Southgate? A big shout out too for Romeu who characteristically played out of his skin yesterday. I just don't get why Ralph subbed him yet again at 75 mins when Hojbjerg offered us nothing new. Romeu is loyal, Hojbjerg is not. FFS work it out Ralph!

Just proves that all you need to do to become a club legend is hang around long enough to know where the light switch is. Wasn't that long ago was it that everyone groaned when his name was read out in the starting eleven....
-
Horrible club, horrible fans. Never will forget or forgive them the time they went up Hill Lane kicking in the doors of many parked cars. The great thing is they'll go straight back down again and we won't have to watch them for another 18 years. Has anybody really missed them? Almost forgotten they existed.
-
Doesn't look like we are getting a free. pass for BT this time. Anybody heard anything?
-
We do have a 'Boufal type' player on the books, he's called Boufal! Yet, we seem to be prepared to let him go while most people on here slag him off endlessly. Had he ever been given half the number of chances to start as Redmond what a player we would have had on our hands.
-
Vokins was very nervous in the first half and seemed content to play only safe sideways and backwards passes, a recent hallmark of our young academy players from Ward-Prowse onwards that needs to be stamped out in their development. Clearly Ralph was in his ear at HT and told him that this was HIS chance; be bold and adventurous, get forward and express himself and stop worrying about making a mistake which he seems to taken on board very well. I gave KWP MotM he was untouchable. Are Spurs really willing to let him go?
