Sparky_Mark Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 Haven't seen it posted anywhere, just wondering if Sharp was available tonight? Would be massive having him and Rickie up top, compared to how we performed attacking wise against Leicester this could be the partnership to fire us clear at the top!

stevegrant Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 It just goes to show how ridiculous the rules are that if we'd signed him on loan this morning, he would have been available tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 It just goes to show how ridiculous the rules are that if we'd signed him on loan this morning, he would have been available tonight Similar to what Boro did for Jutkiewicz? I reckon Sharp will make an appearance on the pitch tonight, but we have enough firepower without him to get past Cardiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be true, but do we have enough central defenders? still think we will win 3-2 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey Grandad Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 It would be asking a lot for him to slot into the team immediately. He won't have trained much with the others and it will take him a few sessions to establish working partnerships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfc4prem Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 Properly looking forward to this with Lambert back. Such a key threat for us. Hopefully people around me actually sing/support today and get behind the lads. This is a team effort, and as fans we are a part of that team.

sandwichsaint Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 The last person I saw paraded on the pitch (or at least in the directors' box) was Delgado. Saints 3 Ipswich 3, Strachen's first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 Even if he was available it would be daft playing him (or at least starting him) when he hasn't even trained with the squad. We have 5 other good strikers available, all of whom will be desparate to make sure they stay in the team when Billy is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractor_Saint Posted 31 January, 2012 Share Posted 31 January, 2012 It just goes to show how ridiculous the rules are that if we'd signed him on loan this morning, he would have been available tonight Eh? He wouldn't? There's some signings that needed to happen today by lunchtime in order for them to be available to play in tomorrow nights game... Also, the Echo appear to think that Sharp will be available for the FA Cup replay next Tuesday - that's not right is it? Surely he had to be available for the initial game to be available for a replay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely he had to be available for the initial game to be available for a replay? Steve is correct. For permanent signings it's midday the day before, but for loans it 4 hours! That's why Delfouso signed on loan from Villa to Leicester last Monday morning and was on the bench for them for the game against us in the evening. I have a feeling that Boro exploited this in their signing of Jukevitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely he had to be available for the initial game to be available for a replay? Correct. The Echo have ballsed up there. I have a feeling that Boro exploited this in their signing of Jukevitz. They did, doing it that way also allowed Coventry to prevent Jutkiewicz from playing against them last week. As he was on loan at the time, he was ineligible to play against his parent club. Boro were happy to allow that to happen in exchange for getting him in time to face Burnley the game before, not that it made any difference as they ended up losing both games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
