Saint_clark Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 Donny accept a £3million from us for Sharp, but he turns us down.
Crazy Diamond Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 (edited) It shows the differences between the ambitions of us and P'boro. They're after good L1 players - we've been there and done that. We're now after good championship players. Totally different playing fields, we quite clearly have a fair bit of cash. Indeed, though despite my reservations over Baldock's ability (especially considering his price tag), Peterborough have a decent record in identifying talent. Craig Mackail-Smith, George Boyd and Aaron McLean were all plucked from non-league for example. A friend of mine remembers watching McLean play for Aldershot, said he was okay but not great. He apparently didn't get on with Terry Brown, who's now AFC Wimbledon's manager. Who knows, he could prove me wrong, but given how much the Franchise want for him, no thanks. UPDATE: I've just been informed he's rejected a move to Peterborough. Edited 29 June, 2011 by Crazy Diamond

shurlock Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 Wasn't that North Korean player compared to Rooney in the world cup, the dog-eating wazza.
Colinjb Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2897/championship/2011/06/22/2542551/north-korean-striker-jong-tae-se-confirms-leicester-city £750k is an absolute bargain for this guy. HCDAJFU Well, anything to avoid hard labour after a defeat.
Crazy Diamond Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 Was he the one that cried as the national anthem was played? Great story that. Could be that he was distraught to find himself in the starting line up. Each chance he fails to put away results in a finger or toe being cut off.

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 Football rumours (yes, I know!!) has us linked with Adam Barton of PNE. BS most probably but HCDAJFU most definitely IMO.
Saint_lambden Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 Abdoulaye Meite signed for a newly promoted French team today which is a shame, thought HCDAJFU in place of Jaidi.
SaintBobby Posted 29 June, 2011 Posted 29 June, 2011 This is just to let you know why I won't be able to read or contribute to this thread again, thanks to the mrs. She asked "what the hell is this about?" (thankfully I was only on the Saints Forum as she looked over my shoulder....) Me: "It's a thread about transfer speculation" Her: "What's that when it's at home?" Me: "Ok, can you work out what it means? Here's a quiz for you...what does HCDAJFU stand for?" Her: "I have no f***ing idea" Me: "Try and work it out, then..." >> Her: "Is it.........How Could Davis And Jaidi F*ck Up?"
itchen_dan Posted 30 June, 2011 Posted 30 June, 2011 Time to make our move IMO!! http://www.htafc.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10312~2384434,00.html Huddersfield Town Chairman Dean Hoyle has today confirmed that Anthony Pilkington looks set to leave the Club. Hoyle told htafc.com: "Anthony contacted Lee Clark yesterday and said he wanted to leave the Club and achieve his ambition to play at the highest level, from the start of next season. I have spoken to Anthony at length personally over the last 24 hours and tried to convince him to stay but his mind is firmly made up. "Coming closely after the departure of Lee Peltier is doubly disappointing, but not a real surprise - I can understand his ambition. There has been a lot of speculation regarding his future especially after the Old Trafford final. "I have told Anthony I will not stand in his way. As hard as it may be, if a Premier League club comes in for him and we get the right offer he will be allowed to leave. We will wait and see how thing develop."
SuperSAINT Posted 30 June, 2011 Posted 30 June, 2011 Time to make our move IMO!! http://www.htafc.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10312~2384434,00.html He'd be a fantastic signing. Can see him ending up at Norwich.
thorpie the sinner Posted 30 June, 2011 Posted 30 June, 2011 Sounds like Pilkington has been tapped up. unfortunately it won't be us! def premier move for AP!! sounds like Norwich
Saints67 Posted 30 June, 2011 Posted 30 June, 2011 Football rumours (yes' date=' I know!!) has us linked with Adam Barton of PNE. BS most probably but HCDAJFU most definitely IMO.[/quote'] You are correct Ivan Katalinic's 'tache it is BS. Heard it (nearly) first hand that Southampton have not approached him. Possibly off to another team that play in red 'n' white stripes though!
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 30 June, 2011 Posted 30 June, 2011 For anyone hoping we'd replace Davis with ex-Scunny keeper Joe Murphy, I see he's signed for Cov today.
NickG Posted 3 July, 2011 Posted 3 July, 2011 Fry - Asked if goalkeeper Joe Lewis would be able to remain at the club the candid director of football added: “No and I won’t be able to keep hold of George Boyd either. The chairman promised both Joe and George if they helped to get us up he would listen to offers. “Both players are very talented players as of yet we haven’t had a bid that’s acceptable but there is plenty of interest Where will Boyd end up? Decent player.
SaintRichmond Posted 3 July, 2011 Posted 3 July, 2011 For anyone hoping we'd replace Davis with ex-Scunny keeper Joe Murphy' date=' I see he's signed for Cov today.[/quote'] Good, I didn't rate Murphy, and for what it's worth, I don't rate Lewis, who lets in far too many soft goals

wireframebox Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 itk ? Nope, just seen this goal referred to as a 'Le Tissier'! Thought he looked pretty tidy!?
farawaysaint Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 Brighton have signed CMS That is unfortunate, he's a good striker. Undisclosed fee though I see, I imagine they paid through the nose for his services.
S-Clarke Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 That is unfortunate, he's a good striker. Undisclosed fee though I see, I imagine they paid through the nose for his services. up to 3.5m according to those ITK.
SuperSAINT Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 up to 3.5m according to those ITK. ...with 1 year on his contract left. Great deal for P'boro. Good signing for Brighton. But that is a lot of money.
thorpie the sinner Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 absolutely no difference to us bidding £3.25 for sharp except Sharp has done it at a higher level!! I know we didnt get him, but it leads you to think we WILL get a pacy hotshot to fit in alongside Ricky!!! also buoyed by Lambo and Aaron signing new deals!!

Gingeletiss Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 up to 3.5m according to those ITK. According to Barry Fry on talksport, West Ham bid more, also, Brighton made a bid for him in January.
Dazza82 Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 I think 1M plus Puncheon for Guthrie and Kazenga Lua Lua would be a good deal for us
benjii Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 Alexander from Burnley please. Come off it. To play where?
benjii Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 According to Barry Fry on talksport, West Ham bid more, also, Brighton made a bid for him in January. Are they idiots then? Just reject the Brighton bid. Plonkers.
benjii Posted 4 July, 2011 Posted 4 July, 2011 I think 1M plus Puncheon for Guthrie and Kazenga Lua Lua would be a good deal for us It would be a ridiculously good deal if it was just Guthrie but I don't see why Guthrie would be interested in playing in the Champhionship.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 5 July, 2011 Posted 5 July, 2011 Owen Hargreaves has launched his own youtube channel to prove his fitness! http://www.youtube.com/user/owenhargreavescb
ThreeSixty Posted 5 July, 2011 Posted 5 July, 2011 So Tevez wants to leave. We're closer to Argentina than Manchester. Putting 2 and 2 together...
alehouseboys Posted 5 July, 2011 Posted 5 July, 2011 So Tevez wants to leave. We're closer to Argentina than Manchester. Putting 2 and 2 together... Nailed on for the skates...new signing Riqueleme personally requested him.
SuperSAINT Posted 5 July, 2011 Posted 5 July, 2011 Who is going to sign Hargreaves? I'd say we have no chance but I'll be annoyed if he goes to another Championship club. Surely wherever he goes it'll be pay as you play or 1 year contract. I always like to think a player can come back from injury. If he believes he can, then he's worth a gamble for someone. But I'd have thought half the premiership would have tried to snap him up by now. I agree. Wouldn't surprise me if West Ham have a punt on him - They signed Kieron Dyer after all.
Gordon Mockles Posted 5 July, 2011 Posted 5 July, 2011 absolutely no difference to us bidding £3.25 for sharp except Sharp has done it at a higher level!! I know we didnt get him, but it leads you to think we WILL get a pacy hotshot to fit in alongside Ricky!!! also buoyed by Lambo and Aaron signing new deals!! What makes you so sure we haven't? Don't use the internet (& certainly this forum) as a barometer for clarity. I'd take the recent transfer comments by the club with a large pinch of salt!
SNSUN Posted 5 July, 2011 Posted 5 July, 2011 Having a look at Norwich's abundance of riches in the striking department, whilst Chris Martin would be the best recruit, Cody McDonald could be worth a punt too. Gillingham's p.o.t.s. in League Two, scored goals for fun.
Saint Stimp Posted 7 July, 2011 Posted 7 July, 2011 Wouldn't mind nicking Routledge from Newcastle, Forest linked on BBC.
S-Clarke Posted 7 July, 2011 Posted 7 July, 2011 Wouldn't mind nicking Routledge from Newcastle, Forest linked on BBC. If Chambo goes, otherwise he'd be a bench warmer and I doubt he'd move for that.
Matthew Le God Posted 7 July, 2011 Posted 7 July, 2011 Wouldn't mind nicking Routledge from Newcastle, Forest linked on BBC. Which of Lallana or Chamberlain would you drop?
Saint Charlie Posted 7 July, 2011 Posted 7 July, 2011 Which of Lallana or Chamberlain would you drop? Both. Play Forte FFS.
trousers Posted 7 July, 2011 Posted 7 July, 2011 Damn....another one slips through the net.... http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/07072011/58/world-football-fowler-shock-move-thailand.html
