It might have been a few years back but our ambitions are bigger than signing "old sweats" now. We are after young, hungry players who are as good as or better than those we already have. This gives strong competition for places.

Agree that Shelvey was terrible, as was the first touch of most of the England players. A poor bunch of players imho.

This is a poor decision by somebody at the club where black is black and nobody can see the lighter shades of grey. Father's illness is disturbing enough as it is without all this worry. Can you not make an appointment to see NC at the club and take brother and father with you, as I am sure that would sought things out in a more sensible way?

As far as I am concerned it is a professional package delivered in a way that gives us plenty of messages. We are going places!

RIP Ron. You have given Saints fans so much pleasure and it was a privilege to have seen you play. A true Saints ledgend.

Lets keep some of our tradition and history and have stripes. The club will be changing our crest next.

Who does that Cortese think he is, stripes are our tradition and besides Katherina Liebherr likes them.

Seems most are happy to pay a little more and you are in the monority.

Rickie deserved it before Carroll but Hodgeson is dinosaur I am afraid. I thought he would be good too, but will not take opportunities in friendly matches.

Most would be happy to pay £50 or so more to fund some new quality players surely?

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Richard Chaplow.

He is a bewhiskered tw*t. I can recall Rupert Lowe suing him over some article years ago and Rupes won!

Very true. He was fairly decent with the ball at his feet too in those days. Did not see it happen yesterday though

Crikey--you have the Saints Web, all those rumours of signings. the new kit, season ticket prices, progress at Staplewood. Thats loads to keep you occupied until pre-season

Never get fed up in hearing the story or seeing the film.Magnificent.

Caused a stir on Sky Sports News. certaiinly a change from Man U, Man City Liverpool & Tottenham all the time. Good PR me thinks. whichever way one looks at it. You only remember the club not the content.

Jones is also a Striker in more ways than one.

What brilliant news as a precursor to the Stoke game. Let us hope we can clap the team in a lap of honour as they have requested. We can boo Kenwyn Jones with gusto and give a good round of applause for Crouchie and Michael Owen if they play..

It must be back to stripes.

What about Scott Sinclair from Man City? He does not get a game, there is a family connection and we need a pacey winger who is decent too.

A good piece in the DT Sport today after Rednapp's excuses. "So, to summarise: partly the fault of Hughes, partly the fault of the owners, partly the fault of the players, but Rednapp himself? Just an innocent bystander caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. "Whatever he owners' plans are for the club, whether its with me, or whether it's with...it's not a problem for me"" he said. You just watch what happens if a lucrative job offer arrives in the summer." Is the media sussing him out at last?

When I was working, I can say that nearly every busness plan. budget and cash flow that came accross my desk, failed to come up to expectations. Only time will tell.

Top man. I really like the boy, Adam.
