Targett and McQueen

According to Blackmore the vast majority is guaranteed...

Saints, along with 99% of clubs, are not in a position to turn down £75m.....for long anyway.

According to Blackmore it’s going to be reinvested in the squad.

As well as a huge sum it’s also being done early in the window giving us time to do business ourselves.

It’s been going on for years Micky. It’s nothing new unfortunately.

Certainly a few crazy dudes out there.

Watching Forster is like watching a giant redwood being felled.

Has always been shiite so not sure why he’s getting picked out today. It’s not like he’s set a high bar in the past that he’s not attaining now. Boufal and PEH put a decent shift in and not bad from Targett either although I’d rather see McQueen if Bertrand is not available.

Not at all. I just don't see the reason why they should come up with such a story. Strachan and Redknapp came up with similar things. Why not just say you've had enough and move on. Or whatever the real reason is.

Bless. Maybe you should read Monks comments. If you believe the excuse given for his departure then I guess you’ll be leaving a glass of Sherry and some carrots out on Christmas Eve too. I’ll leave it to you to have the last word of course. Happy Christmas.

I have no idea but if you believe it then bless you.

Certainly a **** and ball excuse to leave mid-season. Clearly that’s not the real reason for his departure. Maybe Les will take a hands-on roll. They do XXL tracksuits.

No, they get a voucher if attending St.Mary’s redeemable at the next Hudders home game.

There might not have been a formal bid but clearly discussions had taken place and it wouldn't have taken much to move to the next stage, if encouraged.

Somewhat surprisingly we are 13th in the current form(last 6 games) league table.

It was like watching one of Fred Dibnah’s chimneys falling down.

That's not it in full though is it. Europe was a year ago.

Our January league position will determine the course of events. If our standing is perilous the board may well act. Relegation would make a huge impact on his value.

Lemina tweeted that his ankle is still not right and hasn't been for the last two games. Sounds like MP shouldn't be picking him.

Sort of puts a spanner in the works of the poster who was saying he'd gone 3 games ago on a number of threads yesterday lol.

Regarding Black, was he there today?

Noticed you haven't posted on the Puel thread yet today. You know, the 'World class' manager
