St Marco Posted 30 January, 2012 Share Posted 30 January, 2012 We're still negotiating personal terms. Or at least, personal terms weren't agreed at 2.45pm this afternoon. May have changed since then, but on this occasion the medical has come before agreeing personal terms. Club are still confident (hence the medical), but nothing has been agreed with Sharp yet. Any mods on that can check the ip for this guy against our resident in the knows ip? I don't know if it is just me but I have a hunch based on the tone both use in their posts they could be the same person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real sense of professionalism and progressive thinking emanating from the club no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Marco Posted 30 January, 2012 Share Posted 30 January, 2012 On that note welcome Sharp! Grab an oar mate! Great signing for us and if what that Simon guy said is true then what a class guy. In football today very few of them around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine that he's been offered some sort of promotion bonus/wage increase - something that Leicester wouldn't be offering this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints foreva Posted 30 January, 2012 Share Posted 30 January, 2012 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16794210.stm It is believed that the two clubs have agreed a fee for the striker who now has to agree personal terms. So he isn't exactly set for Southampton if terms haven't been agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasgow_Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Share Posted 30 January, 2012 Surely if we discussed terms in the summer we will know what he wants – for us to go back in and fail again would be stuuupid. Its NC’s job to make the club attractive and negotiate player wages – lets see if he can get it right 2nd time around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucks Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Share Posted 30 January, 2012 If he does sign, then my hope (apart from the obvious that he does very well, scores and creates plenty) is that he does not do what he did to Sheff Utd after leaving them, which was to score against them and then go right up to the touchline in front of their fans and lord it massively to them. Shades of Charlie Austin behaviour which is not something to admire. Hopefully that was a one off, and Billy was still quite young and has moved on since then. Welcome (if you do sign!)

However wouldn’t necessarily automatically make the beeb the authority on transfer rumours. Anyway, who cares what stage the transfer is currently in, as long as he’s a saint by the end of the window is what counts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowt wrong there. Yep understood of course, its just that most players get a bit of grief from their old fans and when they do score, reactions tend to vary between no celebration / muted celebration / normal run to your team mates punching the air type celebration. Only a few do the exaggerated in your face / FU type and its not a quality to admire. As has been posted, he is probably a very different man now and fair play if so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
