Jules Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Just saw that, hopefully this means the staff will get paid.
SaintDonkey Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Well that's the wages paid anyway. Should buy us some time if it isn't all sorted today.
Noodles34 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 we must have some serious investors coming to let this happen, not DMG's biggest fan but he would have scored 10 to 20 goals next season guaranteed.
Psycrow Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 hmmmm, not sure what to think... except for the fact that I would have thought that all transfers should be put on hold until the takeover is complete and a new manager is in... if at all possible.
saints_is_the_south Posted 29 June, 2009 Author Posted 29 June, 2009 Would have bagged 20+ goals in League 1 imo, shame. Still, pays the wages i guess.
The Kraken Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 we must have some serious investors coming to let this happen, not DMG's biggest fan but he would have scored 10 to 20 goals next season guaranteed. I'd say its the exact opposite, to be honest. If we had some serious investment coming in our players may actually be tempted to stay. In the obviousl absence of such, you can't blame any one of the players wanting to get away from the shambles we've become.
doggface Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 despite some goals, I have never been very impressed with mcgoldrick - his attitude stinks imo and he rarely put in a good shift. good riddence. Hopefully we got a fair price that can contribute/pay the wage bill.
Wildgoose Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 we must have some serious investors coming to let this happen, not DMG's biggest fan but he would have scored 10 to 20 goals next season guaranteed. Either that or we are desperate!!!!!! Tbf it says he wanted to play in the CCC so......we'll see!
INFLUENCED.COM Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 This does not relieve, immediatly, our financial position because the FA will hold onto it, am I correct in believing that ?
Cheeky Monkey Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 I read somewhere that he wanted to move to Notts anyway - so I think its correct he should go - especially as we got 1M+ for him.

Big_Bald_Si Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 He's useless! No work-rate, poor attitude and no vision. Good riddance!
saint_mears Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Mcgoldrick wanted to go anyway so what would of been the point of keeping in against his will.
the scud Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 He's useless! No work-rate, poor attitude and no vision. Good riddance! 2nd
eurosaint Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 He'll be back to haunt us some day, that's for sure !
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Good God, he was EVER-PRESENT last season !?!?!?! No wonder we got relegated. My overall opinion is "meh", as if he does for them what he did for us he won't score many for them next season before he gets dropped. I can't imagine what Davies thinks he's getting, though he is the kind of manager that might give him the kick up the ar5e he so desperately needs.
The Incongruous Monk Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Not too sad to see him go but doesn't that leave us a little thin in the striking ranks?
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 This does not relieve, immediatly, our financial position because the FA will hold onto it, am I correct in believing that ? This might well be the case as I think Notts county may be due a lump from a sell on clause? Have mailed a mate who's a Mags fan to see what he knows.
Chez Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 there's 6 or 7 strikers now at Forrest so he's going to have to work hard to get a shirt. That might be just what he needs to turn him from a talented player into a top quality player
Give it to Ron Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Does this mean Paul Allen will walk away again like he did for Bale? smiley winky thing
LostBoys Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Very disappointed and with the news that it has been under negotiation for 6 weeks sheds further dount on Pinnacle's financial credentials. We must be pragmatic and so the wages will be paid which is the priority at the moment if we are to have any players left.
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Does this mean Paul Allen will walk away again like he did for Bale? smiley winky thing I'm expecting Seattle Sounders to sign Bale any day now.
saint1977 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 That's half of Nick H's news proved right, Surman next then. DMG had a good end to last season after a rather uneven season and may do better in his home environment at Forest. Certainly Davies will get him a lot fitter as the fitness levels at SFC last season were appalling and this summer will only have made them worse.
Whitey Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Hold On... did the OS actually break a story about Saints first!
Chez Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 "we will all be keeping a close eye on his progress' sounds like code for there are add ons to the deal. Forrest appear to be going places (spending big bucks anyway) so that can only help us.
madsent Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 hmmmm, not sure what to think... except for the fact that I would have thought that all transfers should be put on hold until the takeover is complete and a new manager is in... if at all possible. The club is skint and cannot pay the wages. That's how it is. Despite all the rhetoric of Pinnacle and the other consortia, there is no money coming in until the takeover is complete and the club cannot run the risk of losing all the players. The McGoldrick money should provide a stay of execution until takeover day and the club starts selling season tickets.
Chez Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Hold On... did the OS actually break a story about Saints first! Forrest had it on their OS and it was widely discussed on here this morning.
St Chalet Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Did he manage to find the exit door? Good riddance.
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Very disappointed and with the news that it has been under negotiation for 6 weeks sheds further dount on Pinnacle's financial credentials. We must be pragmatic and so the wages will be paid which is the priority at the moment if we are to have any players left. Very disappointed with what ? If we were selling him before Pinnacle were even involved (and he was rumoured to be going before the Play-Offs were even finished) it's hardly something they'd have much say in unless they were planning on relocating Southampton to Nottinghamshire or ramping up his wages after a decidedly mediocre season. I'd have sold him anyway, even knowing he's scored a few in League One before.
bungle Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Very disappointed that he's gone. Got a lot of talent and will improve massively. Saints fans in general seem to really dislike him - therefore he must be a good player as the judgment of our fans is appalling.
Saint_Jonny Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 well im gutted by this. Someone please tell me, what other strikers do we have to replace him? We are ****ed even if we do get taken over imo.
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Did he manage to find the exit door? Good riddance. Hit it with a banjo at the fifth attempt after sending the cow the wrong way by shinning it accidentally when trying to change direction, seen by some posters on here as "a fantastic skilful run".
slickmick Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 despite some goals, I have never been very impressed with mcgoldrick - his attitude stinks imo and he rarely put in a good shift. good riddence. Hopefully we got a fair price that can contribute/pay the wage bill. Very True. Why can't they disclose the fee ?
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 well im gutted by this. Someone please tell me, what other strikers do we have to replace him? We are ****ed even if we do get taken over imo. Sticky, I sez. At the moment, we have Rasiak and Saganowski. Oh, and Euell, and Stern John until Wednesday. And Matt Paterson. And McLaggon. And Jack Boyle. And Jamie White, though I think he's still injured. And last season we had two other strikers come in on loans, so that's not unprecedented either. And if we're taken over, we might even buy someone.
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Very disappointed that he's gone. Got a lot of talent and will improve massively. Saints fans in general seem to really dislike him - therefore he must be a good player as the judgment of our fans is appalling. Well, yours. I certainly hope he will improve massively for his sake, cos he was fcking rrrrrrrubbish last season.
madsent Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 well im gutted by this. Someone please tell me, what other strikers do we have to replace him? We are ****ed even if we do get taken over imo. We still have two Polish strikers who might do alright in League 1 should they decide to stay on their large wages. There's also White and Paterson who are still to be properly tested in league football.
slickmick Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Very disappointed that he's gone. Got a lot of talent and will improve massively. Saints fans in general seem to really dislike him - therefore he must be a good player as the judgment of our fans is appalling. Your a Saints fan and your correct your judgment is appalling.
Give it to Ron Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Very disappointed that he's gone. Got a lot of talent and will improve massively. Saints fans in general seem to really dislike him - therefore he must be a good player as the judgment of our fans is appalling. Well seeing as he was desperate to get away what difference does it make if some think he was tosh and others think he is Maradona mk2? This message board is about opinions - McG was always going to infuriate some with his lazy gait...he wasn't the first...Trevor Hebberd used to get the same stick at The Dell. Do you include your opinion in the "judgment of our fans is appalling"?
Fan In The Stand Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Well, with his pace and work rate........if he leaves now he might just make kick off in Reading on August 8th!
del boy Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Will fund another month of last chance tomorrow deadlines
Saint_Jonny Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 We still have two Polish strikers who might do alright in League 1 should they decide to stay on their large wages. There's also White and Paterson who are still to be properly tested in league football. your living in dream land if you think saga or raz will stay. White and patterson.. Do you think we can compete in league one with just these two? John bwp and euell look as good as gone too. OdiMeh.
Colinjb Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 Will fund the wages, get County off our back and ensure another ex player will haunt our future. Just hope the money was half decent.
Saint In Exile Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 This does not relieve, immediatly, our financial position because the FA will hold onto it, am I correct in believing that ? I think you are correct, they will hold the incoming fee and pay any of our outstanding football debts from it, including any sell on fee due to Notts County.
Gorgiesaint Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 No surprise given his desire to move back to Nottingham with his family situation. Seems to a decent fee - surprised that Forest would pay £1m + for a player who could have been out of contract in 2 weeks without a takeover going ahead so does this say anything about a deal being done? Let's hope he doesn't join a long line of ex-strikers to come back & bite having left SFC - Blackstock, Best, Davies, Beattie, Phillips and so on (sure I've missed some out...)
The9 Posted 29 June, 2009 Posted 29 June, 2009 your living in dream land if you think saga or raz will stay. White and patterson.. Do you think we can compete in league one with just these two? John bwp and euell look as good as gone too. OdiMeh. I'd rather have Paterson than McGoldrick, and I didn't think I'd be saying that before the season a year ago.
