StuRomseySaint Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 ... and Papa Waigo are best mates. Henri Camara is a free agent, Papa is his best mate... Anyone hoping for a Chala/Delgado reason for signing Waigo ( although I hope Papa is better than Chala )
exit2 Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 we will be like Man City, 5 strikers on the pitch. Be like the good old days with CN, you score 3 we will score 4. Le Tiss, Shearer, Rideout, Wallace up front circa 1990 Lambert, Papa, Camara, Saga, up front circa 2009
Pat from Poole Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 At the risk of having a dodgy memory, apart from a couple of half-decent games for us, wasn't Henri Camara overall a bit sh1t?
saint_stevo Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 Camara would be ideal in this league, pace and power(ish)
niceandfriendly Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 At the risk of having a dodgy memory, apart from a couple of half-decent games for us, wasn't Henri Camara overall a bit sh1t? No. A really bright spark in a woeful season.
saint_stevo Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 was it v Birmingham away he came on and lashed a left foot half volley into the top corner?
sainttomski Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 he was awesome for us, especially in the norwich 4-3 game
Atticus Finch of Maycomb Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 absolutely loved him. would have him even if we were premier league leaders
Badger Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 As I recall, he probably played two memorable games for us,v Everton,and then v Norwich.Pretty indifferent the rest of the time if my memory serves me correctly. So sorry,I don't see that the adulation for this bloke is justified.
saint_stevo Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 goal every 3 games ish for us in the PL.....
niceandfriendly Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 was it v Birmingham away he came on and lashed a left foot half volley into the top corner? Yeah, I was there that night. We were playing so poorly but when he came on the game completely changed. We still lost, but without him we wouldn't have even come close to getting something. He also gave us fans at the pompey 4-2 defeat something to cheer with his goal there.
doggface Posted 4 September, 2009 Posted 4 September, 2009 would love to see him back, he did well here.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I thought he was really good as he brought some much needed flair into the team. Only problem I had though was the flipside to that, which tended to see him be a little selfish and appear not to be a team player. I don't think he's the type of player that we need at the moment, but in the CCC he would be awesome.

The Fat Controller Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 so if he is a free agent what have we got to lose other than money- there are not many loan signings that bust a gut but Camara is a quality player and would be like us signing a top player if we were in the top flight. This would be an absolute "no brainer " if a deal can be done to bring Camara back to Saints
chrisobee Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Blimey, Camara in League 1 and playing alongside Lambert and Papa ! That is too good to ever be true though it would not result in 4-3's as our defence is none too shabby lest we forget.
Al de Man Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 http://img190.imageshack.us/i/55090424.mp4/ When that goal went in, I'm sure that's the loudest SMS has ever been.
Saintandy666 Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 That 4-3 game versus Norwich is possibly the best saints game I have seen in my entire life.
OttawaSaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Cool he can sit on the bench and never play like Imants Bleidelis and Kleber Chala...
ericofarabia Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I reckon Henri was our last striker who could do 100m in less than 20 seconds :cool: Would love to have him back on a loan to see if his heart really was in it to give it a real go for us.
St.Thomas7 Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I reckon Henri was our last striker who could do 100m in less than 20 seconds :cool: Would love to have him back on a loan to see if his heart really was in it to give it a real go for us. Can't really loan him... He hasn't got a club! And I'm pretty sure Theo is quicker than Henri!!
S4INT Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 That 4-3 game versus Norwich is possibly the best saints game I have seen in my entire life. Amen - I hope we see the like again. The crowd completely changed that game in our favour
John B Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 At the risk of having a dodgy memory, apart from a couple of half-decent games for us, wasn't Henri Camara overall a bit sh1t? I thought Camara was the most exciting player we have had in the last five years
Alanh Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I thought Camara was the most exciting player we have had in the last five years Agreed he's not got much competition but really he only influenced a couple of matches even if one of them was the 4-3 win over Norwich. Even in his 6 months in the first team I'd say Theo was far more exciting.
John B Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Agreed he's not got much competition but really he only influenced a couple of matches even if one of them was the 4-3 win over Norwich. Even in his 6 months in the first team I'd say Theo was far more exciting. Yes I agree I really meant a player that was brought in but he was good in the games I saw him play including Everton
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 could be a good addition to the squad 'could be' - are some of you mental? he is far too good for L1 and if he did sign he would be an amazing addition......the chances of us signing a premiership quality player however are zero.
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 The only thing I really miss about not being in the Premier League is you just don't see players of Henri Camera's 'class' in a Saints shirt anymore - although it must be said he didn't turn on that class quite often enough .
Block 5 Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 That 4-3 game versus Norwich is possibly the best saints game I have seen in my entire life. Same here....... Shame it was all for nothing.
VectisSaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I reckon Henri was our last striker who could do 100m in less than 20 seconds :cool: Kenwyne could do 100m much faster than 20 seconds, but thats not to detract from Henri. Kenwyne was a real athlete.
musesaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 At the risk of having a dodgy memory, apart from a couple of half-decent games for us, wasn't Henri Camara overall a bit sh1t? Dodgy memory
beatlesaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 From all the problems that surrounded him with refusing to play for Wolves when they were relegated from the Prem a few years back I dont think, even without a club, he would lower himself to play in Div. 1. Would love to be wrong and have him here but I cant see it. If we were in the CCC then yeah, maybe, but not Div. 1
Saint_Jonny Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 would love it to happen, but its not likely is it. Not impossible given his and our situation, but not likely!
(not THE) Kevin Moore Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Dodgy memory Indeed, inconsistent and certainly frustrating but capable of match changing genius, would be the best player in this division by far.... F.A.C.T.
Matthew Le God Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 (edited) I reckon Henri was our last striker who could do 100m in less than 20 seconds :cool: Kenwyne Jones, Nathan Dyer and Theo Walcott all played for Saints after Henri Camara left. Edited 5 September, 2009 by Matthew Le God
Danny Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 ... and Papa Waigo are best mates. Henri Camara is a free agent, Papa is his best mate... Anyone hoping for a Chala/Delgado reason for signing Waigo ( although I hope Papa is better than Chala ) How do we 'know' they are best mates?
Mr Saints Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 The winner against Norwich was the craziest I have gone at St Mary's, just edges the last minute Crouch penalty against the skates.
benjii Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 If we sign Henri Camara I will go ape **** berserk.
aintforever Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Camara is class, apart from Quashie he was the only one who showed any bottle at fratton park on that day.
Mase Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I’d take Camara back for sure if he is available on a free… I reckon he must have put a good word in for us to Papa.
paulwantsapint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 If Camara does drop down the leagues think he will join the Sven & Sol show cos he wants to play football & nothing to do with the mega money they will pay him
Rattlehead Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Kenwyne could do 100m much faster than 20 seconds, but thats not to detract from Henri. Kenwyne was a real athlete. True. Not much of a footballer though.
Badger Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 You're aware that that was the Premiership yes? So a handful of good games in the Premiership and International level means not good enough for bottom of League 1?? I don't think anyone would question that he had the ablity,just his application and attitude.As someone else referrred to not necessarily a "team player". He could be brilliant - if he wanted to - but on the other hand might not help team spirit to gel.
waggy Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Indeed, inconsistent and certainly frustrating but capable of match changing genius, would be the best player in this division by far.... F.A.C.T. that aint the first time that has been said about someone in a saints shirt
sotonjoe Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 The guy left us because we were relegated to the Championship. Why oh why would he sign for us now we are in an even lower league?
Saint Sanso Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 he was awesome for us, especially in the norwich 4-3 game Best.. game... ever
VectisSaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 The guy left us because we were relegated to the Championship. Why oh why would he sign for us now we are in an even lower league? He left us because his loan expired. But it is true that he refused to play for Wolves when they were relegated. Things have moved on now though, at the age of 32 he is not the player he was (though more than good enough for us) and would probably take a drop if the money was OK, after all at the moment he is unemployed. By the way we would have to wait for his work permit application to be granted of course.
SaintRobbie Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 http://img190.imageshack.us/i/55090424.mp4/ Fantastic! The greatest roar at SMS! Wonderful memory that.
