Woops 😂

At the right price and CM squad size, the club would be mental not to take a motivated JWP... But there are a lot of moving parts for that to come to fruition. Regardless, it seems likely that he won't be at WHU in the champ next season given the clear issues between JWP and Nuno.

Never heard this before? Sounds like a rumor that's been created after the fact to suit/generate a narrative on AA more than anything else.

I would imagine Everton would be very receptive to a loan move for Dibling - at this point they're staring at a very expensive mistake and need some way to rehabilitate their asset, particularly given their £35M fine. Doesn't mean saints should take him back however. Didn't want to be here last season, wouldn't commit to the club, and seems to have a attitude / mentality issue.

Ballard being linked to West Ham now . Club need to fix this error. We should re-sign him with the discount sell on fee and give them downs for the season on loan as a sweetener (no one tell them he's shit) - might be good for his development/confidence in the English game.. Also in for Dael fry for a free from Middlesbrough - which is good business for them annoyingly, and certainly a big step up for him.

James Bree's moment?

All hail the German Drogba 😄 Sadly the rumour looks like potential rubbish, has just re-signed for Frankfurt, although its possible they intend to sell him on for a profit.

We'd have to play Middlesbrough away (us with a 3 goal deficit) before being allowed anywhere near the final.

Hah, maybe. My perception of him was that hey did well. He joined when confidence was destroyed with 2 points from 11 games. He ultimately got them up to 20points and almost overhauled burnley - despite selling strand larson and replacing him with AA. I personally took that as a reasonable achievement. Possibly the fans are just understandably very unhappy and are blaming anyone attached to last season's fiasco. But if you compare it to our 12point relegation season, where the team weren't as badly off as wolves were when he joined, and yet were so demoralized they gave up every time a goal went in... There was no danger of us ever reaching 20 points.

If we do end up sacking Tonda, i certainly wouldn't be against Edwards as a future saints manager. Can see Burnley trying to get him on board ASAP.

This one is mental. They had a proven manager at championship level who was preparing his team for next season and who had saved them from the seemingly near certainty of being the worst ever prem side... I know they love Portugal... but the Championship is one of the most competitive leagues in world football.. About as far from the Portuguese top flight as you can get. Absolutely huge gamble.

I've just said similar to an Everton supporting mate (whilst rubbing his face in it - as he did to us over Spygate 😄). He then started moaning about Burnley cheating against them on the pitch in 2 matches... We're getting to the point now where any result can be challenged due to "cheating", and where results will be determined by clubs' legal line ups and settled in the courts. Total mess!

Yes, financially doping your team across multiple seasons is blatantly more impact than scouting a team a inside an arbitrary window.

That's a bugger for us. Goes a long way to wiping out the first year reduction in parachute payments.
