Cestrian Saint Posted 28 January, 2012 Posted 28 January, 2012 This would be a good signing. The other player I'd like to see us make a move for is Kilgallon at Sunderland, although he's just got his place back in the first team because of injuries.
Cestrian Saint Posted 28 January, 2012 Posted 28 January, 2012 He's from Chester (Buckley to be precise, just over the border) so he must be good! He was raved about as a youngster and turned nto a steady prem performer. I am happy, he deffo adds depth and adequate cover. As the man said! :-)
Under Weststand Posted 28 January, 2012 Posted 28 January, 2012 Would be a decent loan, we've been very unlucky with injuries at CB, all coinciding together. If Fonte is fit for Tuesday then fine if not then we need someone in for that game.
surrey1saint Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Twitter rumours saying he has had a medical,done deal(from The People)
david in sweden Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 I don't know the finer points of the rules BUT; He has played ONE European game for his club side Stoke this season AND... one League game for Ipswich ON LOAN... Isn't there some rule about NOT playing for more than TWO clubs in the same season ? . I recall the discussions about JP not being playing for us earlier this month ... because he couldn't be transferred /loaned out afterwards ?
BILLY Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 I think JP played for us and then two emergency loans to Blackpool and Millwall. I think emergency loans are OK but you can't be permanently transfered and play for more the two teams in a season. Hence we can only sign Collins on loan at this stage.

There is a time frame for "loans" after the window closes, but I think emergency loans onlt applied to the " injured goalie" situation! As that is a very specific role in the team. Otherwise you have to use the players you have. I still think it's a question that needs to be addressed...Nigel !

The Majestic Channon Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Has this story actually been anywhere else apart from the people ?? Would have thought sky might have picked up on it by now. Load of rubbish i suspect.
saints_is_the_south Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Has this story actually been anywhere else apart from the people ?? Would have thought sky might have picked up on it by now. Load of rubbish i suspect. They have, they reported it on Sky Sports News this morning.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 They have, they reported it on Sky Sports News this morning. Source?
SuperMikey Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Source? Presumably he was watching Sky Sports News when it was shown.
VectisSaint Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Presumably he was watching Sky Sports News when it was shown. Correct, at same time as we are being heavily linked with Sordell.
beavis17 Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Correct, at same time as we are being heavily linked with Sordell. Where have you seen about Sordell?

laughba Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 Where did the Danny Collins story actually come from?
Deano6 Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 When I wrote to Adkins that I'd love to see Danns in the team, I didn't mean the entire back four!
Cestrian Saint Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 When I wrote to Adkins that I'd love to see Danns in the team, I didn't mean the entire back four! Adkins is going to sound like Alan Partridge. Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 29 January, 2012 Author Posted 29 January, 2012 Came from Mirror/People journo Alan Nixon. Midlands journo John Percy has now supposedly also confirmed he's coming to us on Twitter but haven't found that Tweet. Suspect we'll get an announcement tomorrow, if there's anything in this.
MOSaint Posted 29 January, 2012 Posted 29 January, 2012 John Percy @John__Percy @GazNffc at the moment, a loan is most likely. Danny Collins was a top target but he's gone to Southampton..
SuperMikey Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 I would expect an announcement tomorrow, and in the squad for Tuesday then. We'll want him in the squad while Jose is still doubtful.
The9 Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Oh dear, he's been gash for Stoke and got dropped for Wilkinson about this time last year. Ipswich managed to concede 3 or more goals 4 times when he was playing...
trousers Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Oh dear, he's been gash for Stoke and got dropped for Wilkinson about this time last year. Ipswich managed to concede 3 or more goals 4 times when he was playing... Almost sounds as gash as Hooiveld before he came here...
sfc4prem Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Thank f*ck the greedy bastard didn't manage to agree terms.
The9 Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Almost sounds as gash as Hooiveld before he came here... I've actually seen Collins play a few times though, for Stoke and Wales - not to mention that I didn't judge Hooiveld before his arrival as I hadn't seen him. Doesn't play much for Wales though as... erm... Sam Ricketts plays ahead of him. Danny Higginbotham has kept him out of the Stoke side on occasion too, which is hardly a glowing reference. Still, he can't be worse than our last signing from Stoke.
mesaint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 This has fallen through as we couldn't agree personnel terms & he's now being linked very strongly with leicesterby by ssn
S-Clarke Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 For a decent champ player (who would be a squad addition, not guaranteed first choice), he must have wanted upwards of 20k, which IMO is ludicrous.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 30 January, 2012 Author Posted 30 January, 2012 An Ipswich fan I know told me the reason he didn't want to stay on with them was because he wanted to stay in the Midlands. He was shocked he wanted to come down to us at all. Going to Leicester makes more sense for him + he might get extra wedge.
Pilchards Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Thank f*ck the greedy bastard didn't manage to agree terms. Maybe he knew about the Leicester bid just before he put pen to paper for us, I expect Stoke is not a million miles away from Leicester so it suits him down to the ground that one.
Avenue Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 No place for greed at Saints! Roll on billy sharp!
Dr Octopus Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Sky sports news just reported that we failed to agree terms. Sorry if already posted.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 30 January, 2012 Author Posted 30 January, 2012 Presumably we can loan someone up to midday tomorrow to still have them involved tomorrow night? Think it's only permanent signings which need to be done by midday the day before.
SFC Forever Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Especially now Pompey are really in the brown stuff.
MOSaint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 reluctantnicko Alan Nixon @ @Arronsanders Wants a daft contract #realitycheckneeded In response to a saints fan asking why we couldn't agree terms when he joined Ipswich on loan earlier in the season without problems
Chin Strain Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Leicester reported to be in for him now!Well, if he wants a daft contract, he;'s gone to the right place...wonder if WHU are in for him too.
Katalinic Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Stoke fans suggesting Leicester have pulled out of Collins deal.
S-Clarke Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Stoke fans suggesting Leicester have pulled out of Collins deal. He must be wanting some mental wages.
JoeShmoe Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Good riddance, he's not that good. We could do a lot better
buctootim Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 He must be wanting some mental wages. Totally. He wasnt even listed in the Stoke 25 - kept out by Danny Higginbottom of all people. As Alan Nixon said, reality check needed.
eastleighhalo Posted 31 January, 2012 Posted 31 January, 2012 Saints back in touch with Stoke about Collins this morning ...so deal not dead yet ...just been on SSN
Under Weststand Posted 31 January, 2012 Posted 31 January, 2012 Saints back in touch with Stoke about Collins this morning ...so deal not dead yet ...just been on SSN Just seen that also, the Sky reporter said he'd just spoken to Danny Collins on his way in to the training ground. He thought it was a done deal earlier in the week only for it to fall through, but we've been back in touch this morning. So watch this space.

trousers Posted 31 January, 2012 Posted 31 January, 2012 Just seen that also, the Sky reporter said he'd just spoken to Danny Collins on his way in to the training ground. The Sky reporter was on his way to our training ground or Danny Collins was on his way to our training ground? Or both...?!

S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2012 Posted 31 January, 2012 Agent was wanting too much apparently caused it to break down first time. According to Alan Nixon the reason was ''so trivial'' that he expected it to be resolved.
Under Weststand Posted 31 January, 2012 Posted 31 January, 2012 The Sky reporter was on his way to our training ground or Danny Collins was on his way to our training ground? Or both...?! The sky reporter was stood outside Stokes training ground & spoke to Danny Collins on his way into Stokes training ground.
