farawaysaint Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 He looked class, but I think Man United have got their first, sadly. http://www.lifesapitch.co.uk/opinions/man-utd-have-got-a-future-star-in-crewes-nick-powell/ Good, he looks incredible Far too good for ManU lol
Ashby Saint Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 £2m + Puncheon for Ince, according to the Mirror: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/blackburn-rovers-boss-wants-sir-850478?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Would rather have Matt Phillips
Window Cleaner Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I see that Swansea have agreed a fee for Sigurdsson then, told you he would stay there
toofarnorth Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Would rather have Matt Phillips Ince has looked a much bigger threat in the games i've seen. Much of a muchness maybe.
Chez Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I know it is unlikely but I would love to see us got for Clarence Seedorf and use him in the same way that Bolton did Jay Jay Okocha. I know I am dreaming and there is little chance but he is out of contract and wants one last challenge and has said he would love to play in the Premier League. The guy is still a class act. what a player. I'd be interest to see him live now to see how he gets round the pitch, but on the ball he seems to get better with age.
Chez Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Ince has looked a much bigger threat in the games i've seen. Much of a muchness maybe. in the run in games Ince seemed to be the real threat, but for large parts of the season Phillips was the stand out player. I wonder what Paul's advice would be to his son should we make a bid?
stev2001 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 what a player. I'd be interest to see him live now to see how he gets round the pitch, but on the ball he seems to get better with age. He's 2.5 years younger than Giggs and 1.5 years younger than scholes. Would be a great signing!
EBS1980 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Played 18 games for Milan last season (don't know if he was injured?) but has been consistant over the years 30+ games a season for them.

I read somewherethat Seedorf has signed for a club in South America,Brazil,Venezuela something like that. I think he's from what used to be called Dutch Guyana, probably Surinam nowadays,so it's a move that would take him back towards his roots.Could be wrong though cos I can't remember where I saw it.

I wonder what Paul's advice would be to his son should we make a bid? Would say Phillips never looked the same after the hamstring injury he picked up in jan/feb.
Dog Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 A bloke down the pub recons he heard Nigel Adkins on his phone saying that he will increase his offer for some South American chap called Naymaaar for £20M ? ? ?

Saint J 77 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I know we can sign free transfers anytime, but when does the Offical summer transfer window open?
Bad Wolf Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I know we can sign free transfers anytime, but when does the Offical summer transfer window open? I thought it was the day after the season ended. It's July 1st on Football Manager though ;D
Saint J 77 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I thought it was the day after the season ended. It's July 1st on Football Manager though ;D Ah Thanks. Yes I'd heard July 1st mentioned before but wasn't sure if the personal who told me had been playing to much football manager too. If it is July first then we still have alot of rumours to get through until we actually sign someone. I hope whoever we end up signing proves to be worth the wait.
itchen_dan Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Quick side note, Lee Holmes set to sign for Preston. Good signing for them and its a league I think he'll shine in. Was too good for League 2 with Swindon and this will be a good base for him to kickstart his career again and try and move back up the leagues.

Was too good for League 2 with Swindon and this will be a good base for him to kickstart his career again and try and move back up the leagues. I thought he would have signed for Swindon after helping them get promoted. Preston is a good move for him I guess but not sure he will stay injury free enough to really kick start his career. Hope I'm wrong for his sake though.
Matthew Le God Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I know we can sign free transfers anytime No you can't, there are transfer windows for free transfers.
Saint J 77 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 No you can't, there are transfer windows for free transfers. ok, I didn't know that. I thought you could sign a player without a club anytime. Shows what I know then.
Lighthouse Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 ok, I didn't know that. I thought you could sign a player without a club anytime. Shows what I know then. I'm pretty sure you can. That's not a transfer as such, you're just offering a player a contract.
Turkish Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 what a player. I'd be interest to see him live now to see how he gets round the pitch, but on the ball he seems to get better with age. He seemed to have no problems on soccer aid last night.
Turkish Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 No you can't, there are transfer windows for free transfers. Are you waiting for the anouncement to come up on your news update that clubs can now sign players again?
Nexstar Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 ok, I didn't know that. I thought you could sign a player without a club anytime. Shows what I know then. You can, but that's just signing them up. A free transfer is between two clubs, which has to happen within a transfer window.
Nexstar Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Alan Nixon @reluctantnicko Mirror will have a few decent transfer tales before the clock strikes midnight. Southampton goodie. Ipswich signing. Palace too.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Alan Nixon @reluctantnicko Mirror will have a few decent transfer tales before the clock strikes midnight. Southampton goodie. Ipswich signing. Palace too. Hmmmm just seen that. Interesting.
Smirking_Saint Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 No you can't, there are transfer windows for free transfers. Technically you can sign anyone at any time but you can only register them between certain dates. And it appears we are interested in Gleeson
beavis17 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Technically you can sign anyone at any time but you can only register them between certain dates. And it appears we are interested in Gleeson From MK Dons? Hmmm...

jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Alan nixon mirror journo says mirror online has a decent transfer story for saints before midnight. Reckons it is worth waiting up for. Has been reliable in the past. "Mirror will have a few decent transfer tales before the clock strikes midnight. Southampton goodie. Ipswich signing. Palace too."

Has been reliable in the past. "Mirror will have a few decent transfer tales before the clock strikes midnight. Southampton goodie. Ipswich signing. Palace too." Look up.
SB Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Nathaniel Clyne to Saints? Now that would be good. Gleeson (previous page) would be a strange signing.
itchen_dan Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I'm not too keen on this Gleeson deal to be honest. Would rather go for a more experienced and higher division player.
jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Be jay rod with forte going the other way plus cash if I was to guess
krissyboy31 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I'm not too keen on this Gleeson deal to be honest. Would rather go for a more experienced and higher division player. I don't think he's the only player we'll be signing TBH.
Thedelldays Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I'm not too keen on this Gleeson deal to be honest. Would rather go for a more experienced and higher division player. Would certainly give this place a mahoosive reality check. And maybe stop the, "we are billionaires" etc
Jack Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Early prediction - the information from this journo on twitter will be far from accurate.
beavis17 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I'm not too keen on this Gleeson deal to be honest. Would rather go for a more experienced and higher division player. Is this definitely happening then?
MOSaint Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Apart from one random mkdons fan on twitter, who also tweeted that he won't leave there seems to be nothing else about this Gleeson thing.
Katalinic Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 I'm not too keen on this Gleeson deal to be honest. Would rather go for a more experienced and higher division player. I hope not too, his gammon cheeks remind me of someone....
itchen_dan Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Well, @reluctantnicko is saying that this piece is quite revealing and well worth the wait. Be about an hour before its on the Mirror site.
beavis17 Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Alan Nixon @reluctantnicko @hartysaintboy2 Worth the wait. Maybe only an hour. This would suggest to me that it isn't about Gleeson...
Saint Scott Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Alan Nixon @reluctantnicko @hartysaintboy2 Worth the wait. Maybe only an hour. This would suggest to me that it isn't about Gleeson... Michael Owen? Especially after the MLT tweet to him?
Saint_Randell Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Michael Owen? Especially after the MLT tweet to him? Oh yeah, forgot MLT runs the club and decides who we sign and who we don't.
Smirking_Saint Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Gleeson would be a strange signing for me, would love it to be ince or someone though. Hopefully not too underwhelming and will be indicative of our future forays into the market. Upson ? Your mush from celtic ? Jay rod
Saint Scott Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Oh yeah, forgot MLT runs the club and decides who we sign and who we don't. I'm not suggesting that. I was talking about Owen clearly sounding interested in us.
Whitey Grandad Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 We won't get promoted signing players like Gleeson. Good job too. I don't think I could face another promotion next year.
Monk Posted 28 May, 2012 Posted 28 May, 2012 Someone dig for some more clues. I would but can not figure how the **** you work twitter.
