Weston Saint Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 I have not been in touch with Steve, his dad, for a few weeks now. Last he told me was he doubted Drew would be at Wolves next season but did not expect any movement until after the world cup. I could not put that up until Wolves had formerly said he could leave. I have no reason to believe he is about to sign. I am not going to ask as if he was in talks that would be confidential and I would not put a friendship under pressure by asking. I will wait and see what happens like all the rest. Speculation and rumour are usually wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint_bert Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 If and I suspect its a big if, we do bring Drew back, then that sends out a huge message of intent. For a L1 team to spend good money (500k plus?) on a premier league player is almost unheard of. Would love it to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StuRomseySaint Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 (edited) The Football League ruling about the number of 'home grown' players. Do they mean English players or do they mean Academy players? If it is Academy players then I can see Surman being a top target this summer.

Andy_Porter Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 Lallana, Hammond, Schneiderlin, Surman and Puncheon together in midfield would have everything. Lambert would score a hatfull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dune Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 If Surman resigned would he count as a homegrown player and thus comply with the new rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chin Strain Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 If Surman resigned would he count as a homegrown player and thus comply with the new rules? Isn't the home grown thing relating to being registered to an English club for 3 years prior to the age of 21, rather than the specific club they're playing for? I suspect foreign players who cam over at a young age may also qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 9 June, 2010 Share Posted 9 June, 2010 If Surman resigned would he count as a homegrown player and thus comply with the new rules? When it says homegrown it means registered as a player for 3 seasons at any club in the country under the age of 21. It doesn't mean they have to be English, nor does it mean they have to have been at your club before 21 for three years. The only players that don't count as homegrown in the current Saints squad are... Jose Fonte Radhi Jaidi Morgan Schneiderlin (although he will become homegrown this season as it is his 3rd season and he is under 21 years old) Therefore Saints comply with the rules extremely easily. As will basically every club unless they have more than 15 players that weren't at English club for 3 years between 16 and 21. I very much doubt this rule will effect anyone in the Football League.

Pwoite Posted 21 June, 2010 Share Posted 21 June, 2010 Was there any sell on deal? Can't say I saw much future for him at SMS. Couldn't see him getting a start ahead of P-H-S-L in midfield, and would he have wanted to keep a bench warm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintNeil90 Posted 21 June, 2010 Share Posted 21 June, 2010 Connections at Bramall Lane. Was due to join either Forest or Norwich on loan, but Wolves would prefer to sell him, hence going to Sheffield United instead. When asked about Saints said he didn't want to drop down to league one.

View From The Top Posted 22 June, 2010 Author Share Posted 22 June, 2010 It's interesting Mick MacCarthy has been pretty busy while at the world cup commentating.... The buy/sell list was done weeks ago. A certain ex-England srtiker, currently at the biggest club in England, has been at the Wolves base twice. Once for a look around and once for talks. My contact at Wolves was far too exicted when they phoned to tell me that they'd just bumped into him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 22 June, 2010 Share Posted 22 June, 2010 Gone to Norwich. Shame, but with the addition of Dickson I'm not sure he'd have got a game. Glad he's gone to Norwich, he'll be worshipped up there, my missus will be chuffed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
