thegaffer Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Sorry if this has already been reported but Solent have just said that ML will make funds for buying players this week. Still can't believe we are so rich!

SaintBobby Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Does that mean Wotte is confirmed as the man to spend the dosh?

Draino76 Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Just about to talk about Saints on Talksport after the break.
SOTONS EAST SIDE Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 this is me all the time Yeah the skates at work, are hating it big time. They just cant believe it, even with they're tea-towel head's takeover. They're still be a poorer club than us!! OooH! the irony!
thorpie the sinner Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 will the club still have to publish accounts or is it purely down to Markus what he spends!! I personally hope we get back to running the club properly and getting the spirit back!! If we get some bargains on the way who want to play well for the club, fantastic!! I would settle for attractive winning football!!
thegaffer Posted 9 July, 2009 Author Posted 9 July, 2009 does anyone else feel like a kid in a sweet shop???? :smt026 I am so happy for my two boys 22 & 20 I have witnessed fantastic times with Saints most of my life and the thought that they would miss out in their twentys having exciting times with Saints upset me to say the least. I felt like they had been cheated and I was feeling guilty. Now thanks to ML I know that what I witnessed with Saints over the last 40 odd years will be eclipsed and we will see Saints challenging for honours on a regular basis and also we will never have to sell our star players for survival. Oh happy days:)
dellgirl Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of Wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to Saints

jam Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of Wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to Saints JP Saeijs did and that's the sort of player we need right now.
INFLUENCED.COM Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 I'm cautious about Wotte buying players for this league, I will assume ML is going to put someone in place as an advisor for any purchases, do we still have scouts ?
Prince Jazzbo Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of Wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to Saints I actually think that he has started to put his face around a bit i.e. on Talksport, he seems to be on Sky quite a bit. So I would hardley describe him as unknown. Also, if we're honest its not always the manager that attracts players to a club the lure of the greenbacks is a pretty good incentive these days.
Ken Tone Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Sorry if this has already been reported but Solent have just said that ML will make funds for buying players this week. Still can't believe we are so rich! From what's been said, don't expect silly money. Mind you just to stop losing our best players would be something. Really chuffed to keep Kelvin. K.
Wildgoose Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 From what's been said, don't expect silly money. Mind you just to stop losing our best players would be something. Really chuffed to keep Kelvin. K. Absolutely! A great start......
Paul Chuckle Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 I still have £2.5 Billion reasons to be happy this morning Said on Solent that Wotte's future will be decided in the next 7 days. I am guessing no money being spent until then
Steeleye Saint Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of Wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to Saints I suggest you change your name to Moaning Minnie. Come on!
Ian the Red Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Let's face most players 99.99% are only interested in money. If we offer the best L1 players the going rate plus 5-7% most will take it in this league. We only need to team to get us out of L1. We will need another to get out of the fizzy pop league and anotehr to stay in the Prem. It will take time, but expect big a turn over of the players....
trousers Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to saints +1 kk!

I was going to say that too.

Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Just about to talk about Saints on Talksport after the break. Mention anything interesting?

Oh happy days:)you are jumping the gun.Listening to the reports ML is not going to throw money around, think Madjeski at reading and I think you will be closer to reality.
thegaffer Posted 9 July, 2009 Author Posted 9 July, 2009 you are jumping the gun.Listening to the reports ML is not going to throw money around, think Madjeski at reading and I think you will be closer to reality. Nick can't see anywhere in my post that I said ML is going to throw money around.
OldNick Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Nick can't see anywhere in my post that I said ML is going to throw money around. how else are we going to challenge for trophies unless you mean Johnsons paints trophy etc
thegaffer Posted 9 July, 2009 Author Posted 9 July, 2009 how else are we going to challenge for trophies unless you mean Johnsons paints trophy etc Nick I think you have lost the plot.
OldNick Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Nick I think you have lost the plot. Saints challenging for honours on a regular basis and also we will never have to sell our star players for survival. You are not wrong there, but i put up your words and I think you have joined me
John B Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 I am so happy for my two boys 22 & 20 I have witnessed fantastic times with Saints most of my life and the thought that they would miss out in their twentys having exciting times with Saints upset me to say the least.

Now thanks to ML I know that what I witnessed with Saints over the last 40 odd years will be eclipsed and we will see Saints challenging for honours on a regular basis and also we will never have to sell our star players for survival. Oh happy days:) I would be suprised if we ever challenged for honours on a regular basis and like other clubs will continue to sell our better players to bigger clubs.
thegaffer Posted 9 July, 2009 Author Posted 9 July, 2009 I would be suprised if we ever challenged for honours on a regular basis and like other clubs will continue to sell our better players to bigger clubs. John what makes you say that?
foghorn Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 I would be suprised if we ever challenged for honours on a regular basis and like other clubs will continue to sell our better players to bigger clubs. Your a real glass half empty and think I have a bad pint kind of guy aren't you! Come on how can we not be positive at this time.
Handyman Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of Wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to Saints How about Lawrie Mac as Director of football?
manji Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 How about Lawrie Mac as Director of football? Please No !
Dog Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Who will want to come to a club managed by an unknown,who has ever heard of Wotte. A name and then you are talking about good players being interested in coming to Saints I think your statement just got Wotte the sack.
70's Mike Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 hopefully this indicates that money is going to be available to buy players and they want someone better selecting them than the man who thought Smith was worldclass
John B Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 Your a real glass half empty and think I have a bad pint kind of guy aren't you! Come on how can we not be positive at this time. You misunderstand what I say I fully expect us to get back to the Premiership but at the moment it is impossible to challenge the top four . Thats all The days when non top four teams regularly challenge for honours on a regular basis is virtually over. Look at Spurs Aston Villa Newcastle lots of money spent but to little avail
Wade Garrett Posted 9 July, 2009 Posted 9 July, 2009 You misunderstand what I say I fully expect us to get back to the Premiership but at the moment it is impossible to challenge the top four . Thats all The days when non top four teams regularly challenge for honours on a regular basis is virtually over. Look at Spurs Aston Villa Newcastle lots of money spent but to little avail I don't believe that. Villa were only a couple of players away from top 4 this season. Arsenal are struggling to keep up financially, and the situation at Liverpool is precarious to say the least. Man City will be up there challenging very soon and Spurs will continue to improve. Chelsea and Man Utd don't have the monopoly on Europe's best players anymore. I think these things work in cycle. I don't see a top 4 dominating the league in years to come. Personally, I would love a Premier League that was on a more level playing field.
