Where and when?

weekly press call tommorow ahead of the millwall clash.

Oh right I see

 

Thanks SS

Didn't think we would land Ward TBH - still hopeful we might get Stock, BUT AP did say Fonte, one other and a striker, so perhaps all the talk of Stock is just that...talk?

 

It isn't. Stock is one I know about. We are interested and so is he.

Pardew never said he was after a striker. He said replacements for Melis and Trotman and perhaps one other.

I assume Seaborne is the one other then or maybe we take his comment with a pinch of salt seeing as preseason he said one or two and signed a handful.

This appeared on my home page...

Exactly. It is just a turn of phrase used by many and not to be taken at all literally IMO.

Yeh, but interested doesn't mean signed, sealed and delivered. Far from it and I would have thought that his would be one deal that went through quicker if was going to happen atall (he is a league above us - what is there to talk about?).

Perhaps it was held up by the Burnley job speculation? All I'm saying is that it's more than just talk.

According to saints official twitter, There will be another signing before friday lunch time! Im excited!! Whoooooooooooooooo STOCKY!!!!!!!!

 

Good spot ;)

 

At a guess, Stock

 

but hey, it could be a defender from accrington for all we know!!

 

the ITK's are a dying breed with this new lot:(

Didn't they say that before they announced this signing? so this signing could well be the one before Friday?

Pardew said after fonte, he wanted a midfielder and perhaps one other, we have signed two defensive players (good signings) since. So are we still after a midfielder ??

 

Press call at 1pm btw

 

Will the press call be broadcast on the radio?

got a hunch, from the wording on the OS, that james will become that ''midfeidler''

Really cr*p if so. Are we going for the "cheap" options?* Do people think it's a money issue?

 

* obviously signing fonte is not being cheap but I'm talking about Seaborne Otsomobor and James instead of the likes of Ward and Stock or Danns.

Maybe Ward is ****? Maybe palace want too much for Danns, maybe Dony won't let Stock go. Who knows?

Indeed, and maybe there's more signings to come like today's that we have absolutely no idea about - this is fun!

it certainly is but there always be people unahppy at the quality of the signings (which is fair enough) or wanting players signed in othjer positions.

No doubt AP and his coaches are rushing to look at his FM ratings to see if he's worth signing then.:mad:

 

They wouldn't be the first professional team to use FM as an "initial scouting tool". There have been many cases in the media of clubs using it.

I imagine it would be useful to see their best attributes such as pace and strength.

Pity we don't have pre draft combines like the NFL. At least there are some serious factual values available.Not ones based on the opinion of some ST holder or other who may or may not know something about the player or even the game.

The biggest scouting network in the world. Ok, its just fans and not professional scouts but these fans are generally season ticket holders working to guidelines and there are over 1,500 of them around the world.

 

An example of what I said before Everton are one of a number of teams to use FM to scout...

Obviously this will just be an initial tool to identify players. They would then send an actual scout to see the player in the flesh.

Some idiot posted this on football rumours what a load of ********. Jermaine Beckford is in Southampton ready to sign terms, after expressing his desire to be part of the Saints 4–year Premier League plan. Saints are also trying to sign Nathan Tyson and Brian Stock. Neil Danns from Crystal Palace is certain to follow in Jose Fonte footsteps! Finally, according to a very reliable source within the Saints setup, they are talking to Rivaldo over an extroadinary 9 month deal worth £38, 000 per week! You heard it hear first!

 

I predicted the signing of Fonte & Seabourne!
