Gaston Ramirez - Signs 4 Year Deal

[Tommy Mulgrew]

I’ve not seen mention on here of Barcelona’s willingness to give Ibrahim Afellay a run in the PL. He could be interesting for us as an international-standard winger.

[edprice1984]

It's all gone quiet, which means it's done and dusted. Just need to be patient and wait for the announcement. I reckon it will be tonight

[Dr Octopus]

Any chance pep's can stick to the topic as I keep refreshing like some kind of crack addict only to be dissapointed.

[Window Cleaner]

Alright SoCal!

Since this thread is at a standstill, and I'm bored at work, and very thirsty. Let's talk craft beers! Your favs?

 

I'd scoot off if I was you before F'sC asks you why you called yourself Luncheon Voucher Saint.

and there was me thinking it was Large va..... sorry , I'll go to now, leave the news till the morrow.

But then it will never update with any new posts, and the illusion of progress is half the battle.

[LVSaint]

Well, this is supposed to be the Ramirez thread, but.... okay.

 

If I was to recommend gaston a beer or two I would start with Ninkasi Tricerahops Double IPA, and Rogue Dead Guy...

 

Good. I think he's more of an Arrogant Bastard and 90 Minute man myself.

[Turkish]

This Ramirez bloke, is he any good?

 

He's the Uruguayan Kaka. He is a good fit for us as we've previously had the Latvian Michael Owen and the Swedish David Beckham.

About 5 to 11 at a guess, just after the echo prints it's 100 issues for tomorrow.

Another self important Sibley tweet at 10.45?

[SO16_Saint]

It's been eerily quiet from the press office (Sibley et al) today.

 

Must be busy learning uruguayan And deciphering google translate

[hypochondriac]

This is what our generilisimmos and our serious posters who only come here to get news and updates are failing to grasp. If you just want news then you can get that on the OS, skysports, BBC whatever. Internet mongboards have their place because it's generally for arguments, opinions (usually wrong ones) banter and people spouting illinformed boll*cks. I find it odd that people who just want news and information would choose to do so on a mongboard where there are so many more reliable mediums around.

 

That post should be at the top of every thread. Entirely correct!

Exactly. They would soon get bored of hitting f5 on the official twitter feed all day and night.

Another shrewd potential addition by Swansea, to replace Sinclair straight away.

 

Reports in Spain claim Valencia have accepted Swansea's latest bid of €7million for winger Pablo Hernandez.

That might take a while, learning Spanish would be a better option.

You mean they identify an area that needs strengthening and deal with it straight away?

 

I thought long drawn out transfer sagas and last minute panic buying was doing things the right way? Why aren't Swansea waiting another 48hrs to get in a new winger?

[Pilchards]

I reckon I've spent a total of 2 hours on this thread and that's with a weeks holiday where I had no access, I bet some of you have done 10 hours plus?

[Raging Bull]

Oh crap. Now I'm in trouble.

 

I get the - wow if you're so impressed then invite her round for dinner and a lot of drinks.

 

I'll cook.

 

I'll watch.

 

Then I'll take the p1ss out of you all year for lasting 6 seconds.

 

Think that hurt more than if I'd had the Dad line TBH. Am off to finish packing and have a sulk

 

Is that with or without the little blue pills?

Graeme Bailey ‏@SkyGraemeBailey Seems that Dimitar Berbatov is heading to...Fulham - opting to stay in England ahead of Juventus and Fiorentina.

Good signing if true

[syd_barrett_saint]

Well MLG, he isn't far wrong here, in Uruguay and also in and around Buenos Aires (Argentina), they speak a form of Spanish that is very different to the Spanish spoken in mainland Spain and the rest of the Spanish speaking world. It's called Rioplatense, but some people refer to it as Uruguayan, or Argentine, depending on which side of the Rio de la Plata you happen to be.

Not a knock on your posting at all, but where's the damn HCDAJFU thread gone?

Must be the Swansea way. It'll never work.

[Saint Garrett]

Got locked for some reason. Very annoying

[Fozzybear]

That post should be at the top of every thread. Entirely correct!

 

I wish someone had given me a 'heads up' back in Nov 2006, I wouldn't have bothered coming here day after day to view news and the opinions of fellow Saints supporters

[supergoose]

I've just calculated that if all the non Ramirez related posts were deleted from this thread it would only be 6 pages.

[Dig Dig]

Can everyone please just talk about Ramirez FFS. I've managed to add 160 high quality Ramirez related posts to this thread, the rest of you jokers are just annoying the lurkers who only want ACTUAL news!

[Cascadia Saint]

Wow, nearly spilled my drink on the trip over to the Muppet show. Meanwhile, the moderation team seems to have missed about 110 pages of complete guff.

On, Off, On. Nothing is happening. There is nothing serious to write on this thread.

Any news yet? Has he signed? What is going on?

 

Only serious replies please.

[SuperSAINT]

Sky Sports understands Stoke have tabled a £4million bid for Liverpool midfielder Charlie Adam. We'll bring you more shortly.

 

(Lol at the value of Kenny's signings)

[Jack]

Any news yet? Has he signed? What is going on?

He was all set to sign tonight, but wanted to watch el Classico instead, so will be signing in the morning. Expect an announcement at 11am. IMO.

[hypochondriac]

I've moved them. Sorry it's been so slow, been dealing with all the posts you have reported.

 

When was the last post I reported and who was it? If I remember correctly it was last week and it was Alpine. I imagine the majority would thank me for reporting Alpine's idiocy.

In unrelated but transfer news

 

Roy Cropper ‏@TheRoyCropper Joey Barton reveals his loan move to Marseille is 'unlikely'. As a result, Sky won't be producing a new series of An Idiot Abroad.

 

Joey Barton HCNDAJFU under any circumstances

That would be a signing! Great move by Fulham...

He obviously hasn't read the 'League One Minus 10' blog.

 

Fulham = DULL!!

[Guan 2.0]

Do we really need to spend all this money on ramerez ,hardly proven or out of nappies is he really going to make any difference to our results we have got to stop conceding goals. we need kasper schmike from leicster and cb,s

 

Not proven? Yeah piece of p&ss that Italian league, and the Uruguayan team is cr#p too. Try opening your eyes and be excited

 

Christ you're stupid. We're already in the hunt for another CB to go alongside Yoshida, and Ramirez has the potential to be world class. But you would rather we drop everything, and instead go after Kasper Schmeichel, a so-so keeper who conceded four last night against the mighty Burton Albion.

 

What a F*ck!ng plum. Thank god the schools go back soon, and the novelty of being back in the top flight will wear off for the JCL's.

On the subject of Ramirez, heard anything about whether or not it's all going through, oh he who drops hints?

Are you sure Yoshida has definitely signed Guan? Unveiling tomorrow alongside Ramirez?!

Some of the things people have come out with to this effect is staggering. I don't know where they get these ideas from.

Sorry mate. I'm in the minority. Dragged up on a council estate, etc, etc. Indelibly colours your views. I just think you're a grass.

Better that than a scally Scouse who beats his kids. Difference being I'm only a "grass" as you put it on here whereas you indulge in your pastimes in real life. If it was down to me people like you would be locked up.

[SaintRobbie]

Why are we chasing this unproven player when Berbatov is everything we need - quality. Premier League experience, Morale boosting, AND IS SUPPOSEDLY HEADING FOR FULHAM!!!!?? WFT?

 

Go after Berbatov. We need some experience FFS!

 

.... and buy a bloody defence Cortese. We have enough strikers FFS.

You want us to buy Berbatov but say we have enough strikers.

 

Makes sense.
