This is the chap I imagine Eric is talking about, sorry I got the second name wrong, I imagine saint devo is ready to pounce.

 

But however he did appear to have a history at Palace, so I am 110% behind this chap.

 

Only phone calls and I wont be in office tomorrow, I have text him asking to let me know any news, hopefully the snow has'nt held it up.

It's a fake article. There are some truly sad people out there who have nothing better to do. I'm no better than them for reading this site, to be fair.

Me too.

[Big John]

He's opening a Jam shop. It was on Wikipedia so it must be true.

 

 

Riches to rags praps?

We would be daft to pay that sort of money for a player out of contract in July. He would be daft not to wait and let his contract run out then be able to negotiate a better signing on fee etc.

But we need a new centre back now. If that amount gets us promoted it would be well spent, if we don't then we have a good centre back for next season who will have already bedded in.

I'm not saying don't sign him, I am saying don't pay silly over the top money. £300,000 tops for a six month contract, his wages won't be small.

[Smirking_Saint]

We have the money, he is a player we need, just sign him, if we stall he will move else where.

Steve Harrison, famous for his practical jokes. I remember reading an article on him once where a Club director heard a commotion coming from a hotel room where the team was staying. He entered the room to find Harrison sat on top of a wardrobe aiming a turd into a cup sat on the floor below...apparently!! He promptly got the sack.

You're obviously forgetting Callum Davenport

Paul Williams

Apparently Ward is traveling down for a medical and to discuss terms tomorrow - the only worry is the imminent weather issues....

 

if it doesn't happen though, don't blame me! only passing on snippets of what I've heard.

 

as medical is after fee is agreed, signing is normally announced just after - was this duff info?

I would guess a medical is the last thing before being given a lovely red and white stripe football shirt to have your picture with

probably not duff, but i guess maybe a bit misguided on time frames- still believe it will happen though.

 

the fact we've heard nothing from any other club is a plus.

[John B]

We dont have any money ML does - he is not going to throw money away if his actions so far can be taken into account

[NickG]

like his personal investment in training ground - ours was hardly shabby for league 1!

[Charlie2008]

Sounds/looks promising. I'm keepng everything crossed! :cool:

[John B]

So you agree that enhancing the training ground is not throwing money away.

[Saint_clark]

Where has that been said?

[corky morris]

Looks like Norwich are in for Whitbread! I thought we might try for him, but would prefer Ward if we can get him.

[ringwood]

how many chances has ML had to throw his money around? a short period to sign anyone when they arrived we got Lambert,a full coaching staff and an experienced manager, training ground improvements planned, if he stays under the radar as most other club fans seem to think then we shouldn't get ripped off for the players we want to buy, most seem to think Saints are still potless

Im sure the professionals ie clubs and chairmen will know about saints and their owners. They arnt thick narrow minded fans.

[Saints foreva]

I just got told that this deal is off. Ward will not be coming to Southampton.

 

My mate has been correct in the past. I just hope this time hes wrong..

[Ivan Katalinic's 'tache]

If true, could be a case of us agreeing a fee and Ward not fancying dropping down a division. A swift change of target to Whitbread would be a wise move methinks, if this does turn out to be the case.

[hypochondriac]

Boo. We need a defender

He was linked with Sheffield United a month or two ago, wasn't he?

[latter day saint]

they just sold Matt Kilgallon to Newcastle for £2 million, so if this is true that might scupper any chance we had

[saint_stevo]

[saint_stevo]

this one dead as a dodo then?

[Smirking_Saint]

So is this true ?? Or people guessing and attempting ITK status ??

[Tac-tics]

No news what so ever, tried phoning the chap regarding work and nothing.

Will do my best.

[MorningtonCrescent]

Don't you just hate agents, more and more every "window"!

 

"We're happy at Sheffield, we intend to stay until the end of the season" WE? Pfft!

[wightman35]

This thread is beginning to remind me of all the speculation over the alleged arrival of Paul Allen to buy SLH/SFC!

 

Hope this story has a bit more reality in the end.

Has Skacel signed yet?
