Wycombe Saint Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 I beat you to it. I waited round the corner on the main road, I booed and gave the w*nker sign to every motor to make sure I didnt miss him. I am afraid i trump you all on that. I was there on the day of his birth and shouted obscenities at him as he was coming down the birth canal, and then slapped his mum round the chops for giving birth to such a useless footballer. Just on the off chance he ever played for Saints!!!
hypochondriac Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 confused .... thought transfer window was closed? He is under 18 so we can sign him.
S-Clarke Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 confused .... thought transfer window was closed? He's a first year apprentice, I think they're able to transfer at any time (which is a rule that needs to change really, as clubs have next to no chance of keeping their good young players)

SuperMikey Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 I travelled back in time and castrated his great-great grandfather.
Thedelldays Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 A mate here who is an argyle fan with his ear to the ground says it is a done deal and he is moving to the area in the next few days....I guess we just wait for the OS to confirm it... we shall see
NickG Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 confused .... thought transfer window was closed? doesn't apply to apprentices
Weston Saint Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Spoke to someone on Saturday afternoon who confirmed it is done. I assume the club are not announcing it as it is only for the Academy at present. He is not old enough to sign a main contract. As for Chaimberlain, he said it was an ankle injury but everyone within the club are keeping very quiet on what tye of injury and how bad it is. Official line is that he is resting it and will be assessed in 2 weeks.

Last 'official' news was plymouth's OS saying he was impressed by us but was taking 24 hours to think it over and discuss with his parents ..and that was before the weekend.
Saint Charlie Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Might be confirmed by Adkins later today at the Charlton pre match press conference.
Hopkins Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Certain Plymouth will announce it. Even if Saints don't. It's money injected into the club therefore they will have to announce it to please the fans.
Scudamore Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 I travelled back in time and castrated his great-great grandfather. Didn't do a very good job then did you?
trousers Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 officialsaints: Youngster Signs Two Year Deal. Full story here -> http://bit.ly/dExZw4 #saintsfc 19 year-old Saints Academy graduate Ben Reeves has agreed a new two year deal with the club.
thorpie the sinner Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Wonder what the hold up is?? Comes to something when I refreshing to see if a 17 year old academy player has signed lol!!!
benjii Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Wonder what the hold up is?? Comes to something when I refreshing to see if a 17 year old academy player has signed lol!!! Maybe there is more red tape when signing an apprentice mid-season? Maybe there are increased checks for things like tapping up, welfare etc... No idea, just a guess.
doughnutman Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Maybe there is more red tape when signing an apprentice mid-season? Maybe there are increased checks for things like tapping up, welfare etc... No idea, just a guess. Quite possible, remember how long it took to sign Aaron Martin?

Matthew Le God Posted 4 April, 2011 Author Posted 4 April, 2011 Quite possible, remember how long it took to sign Aaron Martin? He wasn't an apprentice, he was 20 years old when Saints signed him.
