On the golf front, MT wanted to join stoneham golf club and asked for free membership. When this request was declined he played the "do you know who I am? " card. classy man and this washstand year so not even in the first team.

This is the most laughable comment I have seen for a while. The whole balance of the team changed the moment he stepped on the field. strong , decent touch, decent range of passing and strengthened our midfield no end. He may have been a little too enthusiastic in the tackle and definitely needs match fitness but we were a far more solid side with him in the team than first half. A friend who was in corp hosp in Vitesse spoke with Les Read and he said he was 100% confident that VVD will join saints - that will make a big difference.

any ad hoc streams for tonight? abroad at the moment so don't want to sign upto sportnation whilst away?

solid enough but no spark again. where are the goals going to come from? a real worry and without goals this team will nose dive. jay rod is the key to our season.

Christ on a bike, you bang on more than Glasgow Saint. Do you ever give it a rest ?

Out of interest you mentioned a couple of times that after the first deal all others will be undisclosed. Now if I was to put my cynical hat on I would say that was because we don't intend on spending all the money we have taken in on sales this summer on recruits in. So I guess the question is do you think we will spend as a minimum everything that we bring in plus the additional transfer pot that was already allocated?

I don't think that matters a jot in this case. They all knew we were selling anyway.

I think the point you are missing that football is a team game with the emphasis on TEAM. Selecting a group of players from saints that have played / trained together as a team would in my opinion get a better result out of the last two England games than we witnessed. im not suggesting that the 11 players would be my starting 11 just trying to provoke some thought to what an England side could achieve with players outside the standard England picks. Clearly if I was selecting a first choice starting 11 a number of the starting 11 would feature but maybe not as many as were on show last night. Yes Ward-prowse wouldn't in reality be anywhere close to a strong first 11. my point is a strong team ethic is more important than picking your best 11 players. how many players in other weaker teams than England have performed better through team spirit and togetherness of a squad?

I know kevin Bond quite well and his view on Sherwood is that he upsets players in the dressing room when things aren't going well. He tends to lose control of his emotions and ends up ranting at players who don't take kindly too kindly to being shown up in front of their peers. For this reason Im Out.

ha ha brilliant, final confirmation if it was needed.

Whilst I don't doubt that this information has come from within the club I am clearly amazed how everyone here takes it as gospel truth and many seem to be turning on Lallana. If this has come from within the club it could easily be released as bad PR for Lallana making it far more palatable for fans to accept it when we do finally accept an offer. It not to far to stretch the imagination to suggest that it could be used to justify accepting a bid lower than we original asked for. personally its hardly a surprise after 12 years at the club with his stock riding high at the peak of his career that he may want to try his luck at a club where he has realistic chance of winning trophies and playing in a better side. The only reason he has to stay is an affinity to saints and the fans but there are even more reasons to go if we are all honest. I think a lot of misinformation is being released by both sides to gain strength in their own position. One thing that looks likely is that he will be gone come August and me for one will chose to look back on Lallana as great player for saints over number of years and that for me counts and deserves respect. Sure he had a few offers coming in from clubs that we might see not significantly better than saints as the time but I am sure if he pushed for a move he would have had better ones. Yes, Lambert scored the goals and was a bit of a fairy story (my second fave player behind MLT) but Lallana runs a close second for me.
