Saint_clark Posted 29 July, 2009 Share Posted 29 July, 2009 Been reading about this Seb Carole lad on the Sky Sports free transfer page, looks a decent option, apparantly a nippy winger ?? Any thoughts ?? Anyone know what he is like ?? Maybe worth a trial IMO, either him or that Cambel-Ryce. Seb Carole We had him on trial in the 05/06 pre-season. Redknapp turned him down and he went to Brighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 29 July, 2009 Share Posted 29 July, 2009 I'd love Henri Camara, Alex Pearce, Alan Bennett, Sam Sodje, Jerome Thomas, Ricky Lambert, Billy Sharp...In fact most of the names mentioned on here are good! I really hope (and expect, after the last few sentences in the OS Stern John article) to hear something good in the next few days! No thanks. Yes to the others, although I think Camara and Thomas may be out of our reach, especially as Hull are desperate to sign anyone so long as they fit into a pair of football boots!

FloridaSaint Posted 29 July, 2009 Share Posted 29 July, 2009 With John, Rasiak, and Saga most likely leaving, three new strikers are a must, so M. Bent, Sharp, and S. Jackson please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints_is_the_south Posted 29 July, 2009 Share Posted 29 July, 2009 I still think we might just be able to keep Rasiak, think Saga will go though. If money is available then we should make a bid for Ricky Lambert & Billy Sharp. I see Peteborough are after Zak Whitbread from Millwall, he'd be a great signing at CB.

Badger Posted 29 July, 2009 Share Posted 29 July, 2009 Anyone with knowledge of Mathews at Salisbury? Robbie Mathews? Is this the bloke who used to play for Eastleigh? If so he was highly rated at one time and earmarked for a trial with Saints during WGS time. He had a trial at Bristol Rovers but nothing came of it.We assumed because of offers at Saints but WGS left and it appeared that the player had fallen off the radar altogether.

ottery st mary Posted 29 July, 2009 Share Posted 29 July, 2009 (edited) Is this the bloke who used to play for Eastleigh?

He had a trial at Bristol Rovers but nothing came of it.We assumed because of offers at Saints but WGS left and it appeared that the player had fallen off the radar altogether. To score 3 against Saints and Exeter and cause all sorts of problems, suggests this lad is no mug...I will be very surprised if Tisdale is not inviting him down to train...Pure guess....UNLESS there is something else missing like..background, attitude, etc etc..I am sure someone knows more.. Many big lumbering strikers have been picked up from lower/non league and made a career , especially at our level.....Horsfield, Parkin x two etc etc.. Just a thought, as he scored two lots of hatricks and sounded more than a hanfful from reports......Exeter have McALLISTER in this role....Saints need this type....IF he is good enough...

Cheers, Sid....Maybe he is on a good streak in these pre season friendlies...To be fair he has still done very well in these two games...Hope he continues to do well as Salisbury need everything they can get at the mo. Personally I had no recollection of seeing him play and thought he might be a longshot as the reports described him as a big lump causing lots of problems. Parkin, Howard and the like often described in the same vain....Let us hope that Pardew has his own strikers at the ready soon...otherwise it may be Raz, Saga and Pat etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted 30 July, 2009 Share Posted 30 July, 2009 How about Josh Thompson to fill the vacent centre back position. 18 years old and 6"4 and interesting Premiership clubs. They unlike us won't be able to offer first team football. This is exactly the sort of player we should be busting a gut to sign IMO. £250,000 is the rumoured price.

Rasiak-9- Posted 30 July, 2009 Share Posted 30 July, 2009 Why only 300k to spend? surely we can splash as much cash around as we Herr Liebherr likes? Anyone know what his weekly wage limit for one player would be roughly? I wouldn't expect him to be willing to pay more than 12 a week for any one player although I heard Rasiaks on 15 yet hopefully won't be sold - anyone ITK/can make a genuinely educated better guess than mine?

Tyson could get a CCC move if you ask me. Gray is tosh. Perhaps, but what an ambitious signing it would be ?? We can assure him 1st team football, we have done well with bringing up youth so thats a bonus, Charlton are firmly in the poo at the moment. I am clutching with this one but pardew ?? He may have had dealings. As for webber, i would love. Tyson, why not make enquiries, not heard anything regarding him. And gray, he would prob DAJ at this level.

Bailey Posted 1 August, 2009 Share Posted 1 August, 2009 Have said it before and will say it again. Zak Whitbread is on the transfer list at Millwall by his own request and wants to leave. I know that ideally he's after a move to a Championship side but maybe Pardew could convince him that a move to St. Mary's would be good for his career now we have new found ambition. He was set to move to Peterborough a week or so ago, but that fell through due to his wage demands. I don't see this being a problem for us however, as we'd surely be able to equal the terms that he's currently on at Millwall, if not improve them. I can't see him costing too much either, and we're desperate for defensive reinforcements so we do need to spend a little bit of money in this area.
