buctootim Posted 18 January, 2012 Share Posted 18 January, 2012 (edited) Southampton want Jordan Rhodes http://www.dailystar.co.uk/football/view/230798 Celtic, meanwhile, have yet to receive further contact from Southampton over top scorer Gary Hooper, insisting they will resist all approaches. Sportsmail understands the south-coast club are willing to go as high as £6.5million to land the 23-year-old and would likely double Hooper’s pay from £14,000 to £25,000 a week. Hooper’s new agent, Simon Dent, is seeking an extension and improved terms on his current deal at Parkhead.Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2088075/Celtic-want-sign-Jaroslaw-Fojut-early.html#ixzz1jlYGoymP NA tipped as possible successor to Wenger http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/sunsport_columnists/4067929/Steven-Howard-column-Nows-the-time-to-think-about-end-of-Wenger.html Edited 18 January, 2012 by buctootim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batterseasaint Posted 18 January, 2012 Share Posted 18 January, 2012 January tends to be more about clubs shifting round dead wood rather than big signings. Most of the big money signings tend to be very good players with 6 months left on their contract; clubs cashing in while they can. The reason is clearly because prices are so inflated in Jan because clubs don't want to lose their best players, coupled with the fact that cash-flow is good because of gate revenues which aren't there in the summer. So even cash-strapped clubs can afford to keep hold of their best players for now because at least wages are covered by income during the season, and if cash-flow then becomes a problem in the summer, they can always cash in then.

I always had my doubts over him tbh. Just struck me as the sort of poster who wants everyone to look at him as he drops little clues...then runs away, without ever revealing anything. At the end of the day if you've got something to say, say it. If you can't reveal for whatever reasons, then don't say it. Anything else is just winding up.

Matthew Le Tissier Posted 21 January, 2012 Share Posted 21 January, 2012 (edited) Hahahahahaha You boys need to read before you start mouthing off as usual. I didn't state the signing would happen in a week or this week? According to the poster It was NA who said this. If you read my post I stated we were in talks with someone and we're 80% there, the extra 20% may take days or weeks or even may never happen, as stated. I shared the info I have , and also as I stated I wouldn't give you a name for obvious reasons, if you can't understand that then your as stupid as you sound. I'm not sure what you want me to do Mr Clark, so what you are saying is, if you can't share every detail then don't bother saying anything. Do you think we just sign players in the space of a few hours? These things last weeks and in some cases talks are going on behind the seenu for months. Why should anyone possibly contribute to throwing a spanner in the works just because you feel you have the god given right to know everything that is going on? Also do you think every player we talk to or try to sign actually ends up signing!? Errrrrrrr no they don't , Also Mick, you seem to like to make little *****y comments at every opertunity which is fine, You know where I am if you feel the need to make anymore. That's me done, got to go and make up some new lies on the other forum as I need to get me attention seeking fix.

Sp what you're saying then is that an unamed player may sign anytime between tomorrow and a few months but that if it doesnt happen its because something unspecified cropped up.

WATERSIDEIFASAINT Posted 21 January, 2012 Share Posted 21 January, 2012 So MLT as far as you know are we still talking to this player? You mentioned that prem teams were sniffing around and if he didn't sign pretty quickly that you thought it was less likely to happen. Is that now you opinion that it probably won't happen?

Saint_clark Posted 21 January, 2012 Share Posted 21 January, 2012 Lol I can only assume that's aimed at me and Norm, and I have no idea why. I wasn't trying to imply anything about what you've said. Surely you can see where people are coming from though - you may well have insider info, but you've essentially said "something will happen at some point, but it might not. Can't say anymore". This isn't a dig but you have to see it from other peoples perspective. If people get annoyed it's only because they're desperate for Saints to do well and a really good signing will help that cause.

Weston Saint Posted 21 January, 2012 Share Posted 21 January, 2012 What a shame some posters criticise other posters for puting something up without naming names or positions. The poster MLT is clearly not going to tell us it is the Goalkeeper position. That will give it all away. He is entitled to post his views. If you do not believe him don't reply. MLT, I thought your post was intriguing and in my opinion, in good faith. Better than some of the numpty posts on most threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immhappy to read anyone's gossip and if I don't like it or think its ****** I just will exit the page and read the next! Not act like a cock People appreciate your information and I understand you can't say any names because you don't want to compromise anything, but at the same time mentioning whether the player is based in this country or not or even what part of the field he plays wouldn't do any damage whatsoever and would at least allow us to speculate and talk about it. Just mentioning that a player might come in and then not giving us anything else is always going to create a situation like this, surely you can see? I'd much rather you continue to share information but if you can only go so far as to say that a player might be coming in and not qualify it much more then people are obviously going to start asking questions. Anyway, thanks for the information thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
