Appy Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 Incorrect, they cant on sunday FACT I'm sure discussions can happen on a sunday, even if they can't be concluded on a Sunday.
Saint_clark Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 Incorrect, they cant on sunday FACT Fair enough, so we agree a contract with a player on a sunday, fax the papers to the FA on a sunday, and first thing monday morning it's all confirmed and announced. The fact is, there are not 4 days left to get something sorted.
Saint Garrett Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 not gunna get lee cook then ! he's agreed to go to Sheffield Wednesday.
S-Clarke Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 Good signing for Wednesday. but you can't help but think they're ''signing'' too many players...
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 Good signing for Wednesday. but you can't help but think they're ''signing'' too many players... At least they're signing players!! I know we've held on to Chaplow and Guly + convinced Lallana to stay but it would be good to introduce new blood to the squad a.s.a.p.
S-Clarke Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 At least they're signing players!! I know we've held on to Chaplow and Guly + convinced Lallana to stay but it would be good to introduce new blood to the squad a.s.a.p. They were desperate for new blood though as they had a pretty demoralised starting 11 that was pretty stale. Ours is good and doesn't need too many changes, although 1 or 2 new faces wouldn't be bad. Not totally desperate though IMO as long as Chambo stays.
Saint J 77 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 To be honest I will be happy when the window shuts now. I hope we do bring in at least a couple of decent players but not for silly money. Looks like Ox is off to play for wicked uncle Wenger, which I'm sure the media are all now very pleased to see. It just eats them up to see talented players in Saints shirts and I think its a relief for them when we give in and sell them on. He wants to go so let him go, just hope we can bring in some game changers before the deadline.With results not going to plan in the last couple of games and losing our latest talent, it would be nice to hear some positive news soon on the transfer front. When the window is shut at least we will have a better idea as to where we are.
SaintRichmond Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 At least they're signing players!! I know we've held on to Chaplow and Guly + convinced Lallana to stay but it would be good to introduce new blood to the squad a.s.a.p. With respect, Saints COULD sign loads of players from Hampshire league, but it doesn't mean any of them would improve the Quality It is QUALITY that is needed, NOT Quantity
Tom28 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 What surprises me more than anything about this transfer window is that Adkins came in too late for the summer transfer window and the squad he has, with the exception of Chaplow, is the one he inherited from Pardew. This isn't Adkins' squad. When managers come in to any new job, they want to build their own squad, one that has the ability to play they want them to play, and have the qualities that suits the style of play they are looking to implement. Adkins has had nearly a month to add 'his' players - I'd be stunned if we didn't add one or two before the end of the window.

It could simply be that we DO have a good Squad of players, and that Adkins has been able to get them to PLAY FOOTBALL, whereas Pardew (this season) was not either able or willing to do
saint1977 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Tyson is out of contract at end of season - might be worth offering him say an 18 month deal. Injury prone but his pace is devastating at League 1 levels. Article on BBC Sport website. Weren't we linked when Pardew was manager?
SuperSAINT Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Tyson is out of contract at end of season - might be worth offering him say an 18 month deal. Injury prone but his pace is devastating at League 1 levels. Article on BBC Sport website. Weren't we linked when Pardew was manager? Saw that just now. Would be a quality signing. (And can play as a wide man too).
Wade Garrett Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 With respect, Saints COULD sign loads of players from Hampshire league, but it doesn't mean any of them would improve the Quality It is QUALITY that is needed, NOT Quantity That's true, the Hampshire and Wessex Leagues are no better than parks football nowadays, and the Southern League is about as strong as the Wessex League was 20 years ago.

Gambol2K9 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 According to this source Danny N'Guessan set to join us on loan. Anyone know much about him? http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/sport/Dany-N-Guessan-set-join-Southampton/article-3148432-detail/article.html?
NickG Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Predominantly a powerful, pacy left-winger who can also operate on the opposite flank or up front,
NickG Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 http://www.lcfc.com/page/ProfilesDetail/0,,10274~33485,00.html enough from me!
S-Clarke Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 wooo a winger. very good player fwiw played for Northampton in L1, then Leicster picked him up and he did well there. Been on loan to s****horpe since i think? After Adkins though.
South Londoner Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Hasn't he just been released by a non league club ??
Matthew Le God Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 (edited) Because he is 35 (36 in Feb 2011) and was last seen playing non league football in tier 6 of the English Leagues (but was released a few days ago) and also had a recent spell in the Northern Irish League. Lost his pace (probably his main asset) and old. Why would Saints want him? Edited 26 January, 2011 by Matthew Le God
Glasgow_Saint Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 hahahahahahahahaha some SFC fans are clueless (no offense)
OldNick Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 interesting how it says take a gamble on Gillespie...that's his problem
trousers Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 hahahahahahahahaha some SFC fans are clueless (no offense) Indeed. Some can't even spell 'offense' (sic) FFS.... ;-)
woodsaint Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Coming from northern ireland and having seen him play in the irish league last year (where he wasnt good enough), i can tell you hes way past it....good player in his day though
TopGun Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Because being a bankrupt drunken gambler he'll be a great role model.
forever a red and white Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 talking of free agents. Olivia Kapo or Jeremie Aliadere, better than Keith Gillespe and bags of pace. Good replacements for Punch and/or Oxo. Doubt either would come here though
woodsaint Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 because he is old crap and very Irish I doubt hes very irish, didnt play for the republic, but the other 2 attributes are correct
MarkSFC Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 hahahahahahahahaha some SFC fans are clueless (no offense) this.
The9 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Because he's been cack for over 10 years, perhaps ?
saintscottofthenortham Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5P6UU6m3cqk&feature=youtube_gdata_player I just read out the OP to this baby.
The9 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 What's Oliver Bierhoff up to these days ? Runs a bookies and pub in Northern Ireland.
The9 Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 I've also just realised we've just missed out on the opportunity to get Nat Lofthouse in on a free. Bloody hell.
chocco boxo Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 I bet Gillespie gets on well with Claridge?
Belfast Art Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 Coming from northern ireland and having seen him play in the irish league last year (where he wasnt good enough), i can tell you hes way past it....good player in his day though Totally agree. I seen him play in the Irish League last season for Glentoran & he's definitely past it.
bangkoksaint Posted 26 January, 2011 Posted 26 January, 2011 So having read all the posts so far is it fair to say we don't fancy him????
