Papa Waigo N'Diaye on loan

[Crab Lungs]

We might end up with our fans having a relationship like the one we did with Wright-Phillips (in the early days, pre-thievery), where his personality and enthusiasm outweigh his talent, yet he remains popular. However, lets wait to see him in action, eh?

 

Waigo can't be that bad if he's at Fiorentina and plays for his national side.

Lol@chelsea being banned from signing any players for two years, make are work pemit issue seems like nothing!

[OldNick]

I think we will need to get a loan to have his name printed on a shirt lol

[Saint_clark]

Surely that isn't two years, just january and next summer.

[benjii]

Yes, I believe so. So about 16 months.

[trousers]

You haven't read the Jaidi article as the second half of it on the BBC website is all about Papa Waigo.

 

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/8233355.stm

 

Ah, Ok...I don't recall Waigo being on the original BBC article about Jaidi. Perhaps they re-jigged the article over time.

 

Oh well, another Trousers theory down the pan...

Fair point!

[Crab Lungs]

Papa Waigo you're so brown...

[DT]

I'm sure it's been done but:

Waigo!

Wa-ai-i-go

Daylight come and me wanna go home...

[Tractor_Saint]

I'm sure it's been done but:

Waigo!

Wa-ai-i-go

Like it!! A slight adaptation and change 'Daylight' to [insert opposition side here]' and sing after he scores against them

 

e.g.

Waigo!

Wa-ai-i-go

Pompey come and they wanna go home...

[Mewsta]

We have a winner, its kind of a brown song too

[saint_stevo]

what about my macarana song?

Why the pompey reference?!? Whats that got to do with Papa??

[Bartosz Bialkowski]

what about my macarana song?

 

Nobody even knows the words to the original

 

 

hum dud de de dud de da consequena........ hey macarena

[Bartosz Bialkowski]

[insert opposition name here]

[saint_stevo]

get rid of macarena and substitute in Papa Waigo

 

 

 

Oh yeah

[Dibden Purlieu Saint]

Change Pompey to Papa and it may seem like its the other team that want to go home.

[StuRomseySaint]

The more I think of it, and the more I appreciate we are in league 1, the more I think what a fookin good signing he is.

[Saint Bones]

May have missed it but can someone answer this.

 

With the option to buy - Say he goes extremely well - Can this affect the selling price / or the decision to sell at all ?

[StuRomseySaint]

There will be a pre-determined price of which we can choose to buy him at, if we want. In other words, a fee will have been agreed.

[saint_stevo]

Like Saga had a deal in place at Aalborg after his loan, but they realised he was carp and sent him back

[Saint Charlie]

Surely an african (senegal) theme has to be done at a home game with loads of senegal flags+african drums!

[saint_stevo]

PWN'd

 

[Saint_clark]

PWN'd

 

 

About 7 pages too late

[Saints foreva]

If he becomes a goalscorer maybe we could sing:

 

Feed Papa and he will score!

[dubai_phil]

A 6ft tall winger with pace...

 

Holy Carp, that must be the first one we've had since Chicken George..

 

Let's hope he has at least double the footballing IQ of George..

 

A signing to excite, wish I had bandwidth for the You Tube clips!

[Dan Johnson]

I scored a beauty of a goal tonight and used Papas celebration. The looks i got from around the pitch were classic.

 

My first game of the season tomorrow and i plan on breaking this out if I score....

[Iowsaintsfan]

I'm sure it's been done but:

Waigo!

Wa-ai-i-go

Daylight come and me wanna go home...

 

 

Waigo!

Wa-ai-i-go

Papa Waigo and he scores for fun

[Scummer]

I wonder who our contact at Fiorentina is then?

 

"Amongst us, we obviously have contacts at various clubs, and we've used that knowledge to assist us more than anything else so far. We have a personal connection at Fiorentina, which helped, so we're lucky to have him, but we'll only be lucky if he's a success.

[once_bitterne]

I wonder who our contact at Fiorentina is then?

 

A contact of Nicola's?

[The9]

I tend to agree.

 

I thought it was notable that the national press, that I've seen, reported Jaidi's signing (albeit briefly) but have, as yet, made no mention of this Waigo chap who, in theory, is a more high profile signing.

 

For instance, Jaidi got a one pager on the BBC's Saints site....Waigo? Not a dickie bird

 

Without wishing to p1ss on bonfires, something tells me that "the meeja" know more about him than we do....

 

My money's on the media knowing less than we do, hence the lack of coverage. Jaidi's got a ready-made file of English footballing experience they can look up, Waigo ? Too much effort, mate.

[Gingeletiss]

A contact of Nicola's?

 

 

Or ML's................

[Ashby Saint]

I wonder who our contact at Fiorentina is then?

 

May be the Wilkins connection again.

[Rory]

Anyone actually seen him in a Saints strip yet? I bet we get this truly terrible player, a la Ali Dia, instead of the real deal. From what I've read on here and seen of him, he appears to be far too good for League One.

Well apparently Galatasaray were interested in him only a couple weeks ago. So I’m sure he is to good for League One … I hope.

[Matthew Le God]

I wonder if the deal to make the loan permanent is dependent on us being a Championship club next season.

Doubt it, we wouldn't have bothered putting it in.

Maybe when smurf scores the whole crowd should do his celebration, would look mental :-)

[Matthew Le God]

Yeah, I know it is unlikely. However would be sad if it was the case and missed out on him for that reason after a good loan spell. I just think its strange that he'd be willing to play for 2 years in the 3rd tier.

[eelpie]

I'm sure it's been done but:

Waigo!

Wa-ai-i-go

Better

"daylight come an' no wanna go home"

[NickG]

Sol Campbell?

[Saints foreva]

Sol Campbell?

 

You mean the highest paid player in the football league? Money talks.

[NickG]

think you are getting there!

[NickG]

who knows!

 

Tripled wages of Bristol's highest paid player

[Matthew Le God]

Sol Campbell?

 

Completely different cases.

 

Sol is past his peak and achieved football wise all that he will do and was out for one last big payday. England and Premiership his has been there got the t-shirt.

 

Papa Waigo is 25 and coming into his prime with the best years of his career ahead of him. At his age he will still want to achieve things in his best years and get into the Senegal squad for big competitions. Hopefully Saints will be back in the Premiership in 4 years but will be a long time for Papa to wait.
