Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 ...is apparently going to be brought in. Not sure how reliable my source is, he's never told me any gossip before, but apparently he's available on a free. I think he'd be a pretty good signing. Can definitely do a job, that's for sure.
northam soul Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Certainly did the buisness for Swansea in this league but would be surprised if he was on a free.
Toadhall Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Hmmm - There has always been speculation (every close season) re Trundle and Saints. I think he'd do a job for us.
Wes Tender Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Skilful but lazy from what I hear. Poor man's Matt Le Tiss?
miserableoldgit Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Skilful but lazy from what I hear. Poor man's Matt Le Tiss? Well we are in a "Poor Mans" league.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Author Posted 3 August, 2009 he has a year left on his contract. Doesn't mean he's not available on a free transfer? As he doesn't get a game for BC, they're likely to want his wages removed.
saint-ross Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Lee Trundle would score goals for us if he signed - FACT :-)
Chez Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Doesn't mean he's not available on a free transfer? As he doesn't get a game for BC, they're likely to want his wages removed. Indeed. Wonder if we can get them to pay some of his wages.
Baird of the land Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Would love us to sign lee trundle. Absolutely adored some of the goals he scored for swansea down the years.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Author Posted 3 August, 2009 Would love us to sign lee trundle. Absolutely adored some of the goals he scored for swansea down the years. As I say, not sure on the source, but we'll find out soon I suppose. Be a decent signing though, mentally skilful.
Ewell Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Obviously not in Le Tissier's class but finally someone who may do the number 7 shirt justice. Sign him up I say. If we can also get a quick striker to play up top with him then I think we will have the makings of a very nice strike force.
Saintjersey Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 He would be good for this league, I reckon he could score 20 goals + for us.
itchen_dan Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 he joined leeds last year for a month in the january transfer window. if he is good enough for them, he must be worth a shot for us. Proven goalscorer? Something we've been lacking really... Could be one of the last pieces of our league 1 jigsaw?? "Lee is a proven goalscorer," said the boss. "He brings something a bit different, and he has a great track record. http://www.leedsunited.com/news/trundle-joins-on-loan-20090109_2247585_1514256
red&white56 Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 He would be good for this league, I reckon he could score 20 goals + for us. Bristol City paid £1 million (I believe) so it seems unlikely that they would let him go for free before his contract expires. However, he was on loan at Leeds this year so he's familiar with lge 1 - I wonder if this might be the first player to be bought under the new regime??

Maybe even some sort of trade with one of our star players...Razza, Saga or Pulis:rolleyes:
Colinjb Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 He scored 1 in 10 appearances for Leeds on loan. His record at Swansea is enough for me to want him here though.
Hopkins Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 He's so over rated its unbelievable. Not say he wouldn't be a bad signing but other than Swansea, years ago, he's been shocking. Even at Swansea he was over rated because Soccer AM highlighted some awesome tricks he did. Could be alright, but he won't be the player everyone thinks he will be. He certainly doesn't score alot of goals.
ottery st mary Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Over weight and a total lack of fitness is a major concern..Get himself FIT..maybe. ...Like Skacel and several other Saints players.....MLT could carry the extra pudding with his sublime skills......There must be some forgotten/missed stars out there somewhere.
SaintRichmond Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Maybe even some sort of trade with one of our star players...Razza, Saga or Pulis:rolleyes: Trundle in ... OK .... but NOT if it means we lose either Rasiak or Saga .... That would NOT be a good trade off IMHO
ottery st mary Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Trundle in ... OK .... but NOT if it means we lose either Rasiak or Saga .... That would NOT be a good trade off IMHO You are right.....just thoughts on what Saints might be up to...As I state...Mr Trundle is about stone and half overweight...Not even Pulis? You sure?
hypochondriac Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Leeds fans don't rate him at all. http://www.waccoe.com/index.php?act=Search&CODE=simpleresults&sid=68ba77224bc998e35fad7851446b1080&highlite=trundle
Sour Mash Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Exactly the sort of player we DON'T need. We need pace up front (and throughout the whole team), can't see Trundle giving us that!
Give it to Ron Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Watched him last season against our reserves for Bristol.....was superb and destroyed our defence...not thats hard mind. Him and Brooker were the ideal pairing but agree with the other poster we need pace!
sambosa75 Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Would be a great signing. A player with a bit of skill, eye for goal, good experience and someone who builds good rapport with his fans. I'd be up for that.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 No thanks overated Better than we have thou and if he does sign then chances are he will want to be here - more than be said for the polish twins
geoffd Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 I work with an ardent Swansea fan and he assures me that Trundle is now total cr@p.
Micky Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Ahhhh another journeyman - been there, seen it, dunit - that's (largely) how we got here, so unlikely to be the answer to our problems.
Cabrone Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 I've always liked Trundle but is he as good as he was and would he accept a realistic wage? If the answers are yes then at 32/33 he could still do a good job for us for a year or two.
Give it to Ron Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Ahhhh another journeyman - been there, seen it, dunit - that's (largely) how we got here, so unlikely to be the answer to our problems. As the poster was unsure about his source its unlikely to be true as well ;-)
Torbay Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 I work with an ardent Swansea fan and he assures me that Trundle is now total cr@p. Thing is he doesn't play for Swansea and hasn't for a couple of years!
Winchester Red Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 You guys are expecting f*cking miracles. There are 50 teams in England players will choose to play for ahead of us. If AP believes he can bring the best out of someone who looks like there best days are behind them then why not show a little faith :mad: FFS
eelpie Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Better than we have thou and if he does sign then chances are he will want to be here - more than be said for the polish twins Rasiak is Czech , isn't he?
ottery st mary Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Rasiak is Czech , isn't he? Surely he is a Dutchman:D
Glasgow_Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Rasiak is Czech , isn't he? You need to Czech your source He is Polish
Redbul Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 (edited) I LIKE DVD's ****Pedant alert**** I LOVE DVDs.... I think he could do a job for us. We need to get people in and get them in fast. If AP thinks he can motivate him to score for us then bring him in. Of course, this is all hypothetical at the moment.... Edited 3 August, 2009 by Redbul Afterthought
eelpie Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 You need to Czech your source He is Polish Yep, you're correct. Wikepedia says so.

(Lets hope so anyway) A player Like Lee will still have lots to prove and cdajfu im sure.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Yep, you're correct. Wikepedia says so. You could always change that! Make him Russian for a day!
VectisSaint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Over weight and a total lack of fitness is a major concern..Get himself FIT..maybe. .... Mr Trundle meet Mr Wilkins
RoundHill-Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 ****Pedant alert**** I LOVE DVDs.... I think he could do a job for us. We need to get people in and get them in fast.

Scottie Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 ...is apparently going to be brought in. Not sure how reliable my source is, he's never told me any gossip before, but apparently he's available on a free. I think he'd be a pretty good signing. Can definitely do a job, that's for sure. I think your source's logic is something like:- - Trundle is likely to be moving clubs - Saints need some more players Therefore he is moving to Saints. In reality it's been fairly well commented in the press that he wants to go back to Swansea.
