saint1977 Posted 26 January, 2011 Share Posted 26 January, 2011 No thanks to Gillespie, decent at Man U but mixed since and far too old now. If you think Puncheon is trouble, this bloke is different gravy! I've got a feeling Kapo almost joined us a few years ago but there was a medical issue, possibly cardiac-related? Can't have been too chronic as he's had a decent career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verlaine1979 Posted 27 January, 2011 Share Posted 27 January, 2011 Any news on whether Gael N'Lundulu made much of an impression during his trial last week?

Noticed he wasn't in the development squad against Oxford, so presumably trial over. The Saints twitter said he was a way off being first-team fit if he did sign, so I'd assume he didn't pass a trial as he didn't feature today.

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 27 January, 2011 Share Posted 27 January, 2011 I know there are reports saying Austin is Ipswich-bound but maybe our plan is Seaborne plus cash for Austin and then buy Jason Pearce from Bompey, as weren't there rumours about a potential mystery signing from there a week or so ago? Maybe we won't push on for Pearce until Seaborne goes. All hypothetical but makes sense to my tiny mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K,Billy's supersound Posted 27 January, 2011 Share Posted 27 January, 2011 is it not better to bring in a player in first before releasing another and potentially leaving ourselves short if said player we were after decided not to come or if the selling chairman decided to change terms. i would have though a defender would come in first before a seabourne part exchange deal would happen.

Norm Posted 27 January, 2011 Share Posted 27 January, 2011 I doubt hes very irish, didnt play for the republic, but the other 2 attributes are correct Keith Robert Gillespie (born 18 February 1975 in Larne, County Antrim) is a Northern Irish professional footballer Most posters on here have no idea about Gillispie being Irish or Northern Irish or if he came from Ulster or the 6 Counties. What in your eyes was missing was the Northern. All most care about is that he kicked a football (once). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 27 January, 2011 Share Posted 27 January, 2011 If Austin is on his way to Ipswich or Blackpool and Mackail-Smith could well be staying at Posh until summer, what other striking options are available to us, if we do want to bring someone in? Will Hoskins is having a decent season in a poor Bristol Rovers side, Glenn Murray at Brighton is out of contract in the summer or a Championship striker like Tyson or Garner from Forest?

We'd be better off spending the bulk of our transfer budget on a goalkeeper than a striker. It's Davis that may well cost us promotion, not a lack of goals scored.

The9 Posted 27 January, 2011 Share Posted 27 January, 2011 My first time on this thread this season, anyone mentioned Shefki Kuqi yet ?

Papa Shango Posted 28 January, 2011 Share Posted 28 January, 2011 With any chance of signing Charlie Austin now officially gone, I'd be very surprised if we made any big transfer now. Maybe a striker on loan, but that'll be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not if there is a buyer For Austin there was a buyer, for Smith ?? we will have to wait and see I would be surprised if Cortese would go above £1 Million for either, and I don't blame him Austin has ended up in a CCC Club with a real chance to go up again Smith, IMHO, would make it in the CCC, and I'm rather surprised no one has made a move for him yet IMHO, If a CCC Club came calling, he would go, but he won't be "allowed" to join a Rival Club in Div 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin was lucky, he got his chance and took it, I'm glad he didnt come to us, as he would of upset the dressing room, with his BIG IAM status, when he's only just small fry. he wont perform there, he will get in a strop, I bet he's only on the bench....
