S-Clarke Posted 29 January, 2012 Share Posted 29 January, 2012 Be interesting if we really have stalled on the Sharp deal as we felt we had a chance with Hooper. Let's hope that we don't end up with neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilchards Posted 29 January, 2012 Share Posted 29 January, 2012 The situation you will find with Billy Sharp is he's asked us for a certain wage a month which we have not budge down from and Reading have offered him slightly less so he has something to fall back on. We are playing the same game with Hooper & Sharp I expect. Could end up with nobody if we are not careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Who? Posted 29 January, 2012 Share Posted 29 January, 2012 Which Ikea? Do not think Reading have one, well they did not 11 years ago when I lived there! So it has to be Southampton. Unless both chairman met at the Enfield Ikea with the player to have a open chat about who was to sign him? This is just weird... Forget it!

James Posted 29 January, 2012 Share Posted 29 January, 2012 I'm with you,sharp is a similar player to hooper but will be half the price. I also agree, Sharp is the player I wanted us to sign at the start of January. No reason why Sharp couldn't make the step up to the Prem with us. I mean, who would have thought players like Hammond, Chaplow etc would be in with a chance of Prem football next year? If he fits into the team then there's no reason he won't develop further with us. Get it done Nicola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donnylee Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 You have got yourself a great player player, never gives up, strong as an ox for his size & will give opposition defences a torrid time. The fella can put it in the back of the net as well, he will be sorely missed up here (general consenus is with Sharp we would stay up,without him we won't). Already looking forward to visiting in March he will get a fantastic reception from the Donny fans if he plays & will no doubt grab a couple of goals.

Out of interest....has he ever played with a ''big man'' at Donny? As we're kind of wondering how a little man/big man partnership will strike off here, with him and Lambo.

We are delighted that he has chosen to come here, and every Saints fan that I know of thinks he is a top, top signing.. I really wish you well and hope you stay up ( although we could do with beating you in March of course).. Keep an eye out for our Skate neighbours down the other end of the M27 - Their financial situation is perilous and they are trying to weasel their way out of paying bills, selling players and seeking unfair advantages where they can, but I think they are on for a big points deduction if everything is handled fairly by the football authorities.. That might send them tumbling down into the bottom 3 and perhaps give you an impetus to push forward.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donnylee Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 Thanks for the comments, the Portsmouth situation could give us a boost if reports are true they are in deep trouble, Billy has never played with a big man whilst at Donny he often played up front on his own with Hayter just behind and a couple of attacking midfielders/wingers. I have no doubt he will be a success at your place,his enthusiasum and determination is a joy to watch, he will get the goals you need to gain promotion I'm certain of that. Him & Lambert will be a frightening partnership & I'm sure you have other quality strikers as well. Good luck, I will certainly be tuning in to watch your game saturday evening.

So he's not big but can play as a lone man and hold the ball up. I know he revels in the fat lad from sheffield schtick but is he quick enough?

Donnylee Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 He isn't lightening quick but he is no slouch either, despite his lack of inches he is great as a lone forward, he doesn't half knock 6ft+ defenders around, the ball sticks when he gets it, rarely loses possesion and has great vision. I'd be amazed if by the end of February he isn't a fan favourite. I know the expectation & quality is another level to us but he will rise to that, no doubt about it. What's the chances of him playing tonight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll probably be Lambert and our new Japan international striker tonight...! Has this been confirmed? Wouldn't it be possible that he's been signed on loan initially (I think he would then be available tonight), which then changes to a permanent deal tomorrow? I am sure there are ways around it, and if we really want him to make an appearance, he will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
