ThreeSixty Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Sounds like Bologna want too much money up front. **** 'em.
surrey1saint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I wouldn't close it yet,Nixon is still saying its on........
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I can see exactly where mullett is coming from some folk on here have two separate views on this topic . One minute extatic and the next uber negative because the deal has not.been completed yet . If he does sign it will not belong before some on here slate him what a waste of money . Some of you need to take a chill pill . There Are far more important things to worry about . My girl friends dad died yesterday of a very rare and aggressive cancer . He went into hospital 5 weeks ago as a very fit person. This bickering amongst each other for something g out of our control is really sad . Put life into perspective guys . It seems to me that people are getting overly aggressive with those who question our potential transfer policy/strategy and get overly angry at those people (like me) who make those queries. There is nothing wrong with doing that, and on the whole it is done without aggression, name calling and what-not. I agree, it is not the be-all and end-all, and I think we'd all do better to care less about football than we do. However this does beg the question as to why people get so frustrated at what is surely a relevant question/speculation to be raised. Sorry for your loss.
Dig Dig Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Can we finally close this thread please Why? you can just not come on the thread if you think it's all over
SaintNeil90 Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I wouldn't close it yet,Nixon is still saying its on........ He isnt the most reliable source for this one I'm afraid. He didnt know anything about it until a day or two ago. Up until them he was passing it off as us being used as bait for bigger teams.
MOSaint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I wouldn't close it yet,Nixon is still saying its on........ He's saying the club thinks it's on, gets awfully evasive when asked for a personal opinion.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Why? you can just not come on the thread if you think it's all over Agreed.
maysie Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 (edited) I wouldn't close it yet,Nixon is still saying its on........ His source seems to be someone in SFC as he keeps on saying that we believe we have got him. Edited 21 August, 2012 by maysie posted a URL for no apparent reason
S-Clarke Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 If we're honest, nothing has really changed has it?
Thedelldays Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 ^ could happen still! You must be pro cortese
mulletsaint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I can imagine. I ate them at uni, they were cheap. I guess the beef used is no longer from Frey Bentos. I'd guess the beef used is no longer beef.
channonwindmill Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I wonder what's happening on all the other threads.
swannymere Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Be funny if he signs now No way, let's start the blame game. I blame Redknapp.
Dig Dig Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 You must be pro cortese Would be more comfortable with wild and crouch doing the negotiations but otherwise I suppose he's alright
Thedelldays Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Would be more comfortable with wild and crouch doing the negotiations but otherwise I suppose he's alright Guy askham. He knows a player.
MOSaint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Alessandro Mossini @Mousse81 #ramirez update: parti lontanissime, vicina la rottura. The deal is so far now: #Southampton and Bologna are going to break the talks
Turkish Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Ramirez won't be joining Saints. Let's stop all this bed wetting and move on What are you on about? We've been told Bolognia need the money and Cortese is not being held to ransom and doing a deal that will suit us. We have a great track with closing deals out. Just ask Buttner, Fontaine, Gorkss, ward and co.

Cork Sharp J-rod Davis Clyne Fonte Lambert De ridder Chaplow Fox Richardson Gazzanigga Lee Butter field Harding Seaborne Martin Hammond Mellis Trot man Jaidi Guly Jono quick Pretty high success % then, although these are just the ones that made the media. Same at most clubs; lots of enquiries, rebuffs and non completions happen all the time. Hardly unique to Saints and Cortese. Edited 21 August, 2012 by Matthew Le God
COMEONYOUREDS Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 alan nixon is convinced its a done deal, so clearly dead in the water!
Thedelldays Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Pretty high success % then. All of which brought us back to back promotions I can live with missing out on Fontaine, gorks and ward as a result

We have a great track with closing deals out. Just ask Buttner, Fontaine, Gorkss, ward and co. Yea, I guess it's reasonable to ignore the near entire squad we've built over the last 3 years.
COMEONYOUREDS Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 question is (if we sign him), is he jonno quick?
Dig Dig Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I think that's called clutching at straws What are you still doing here?
Thedelldays Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 question is (if we sign him), is he jonno quick? No point signing otherwise.
Red and White Russ Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I'm just fed up getting my hopes up, and a 'bigger' club come in at the last minute and snap the player up, after we have done all the hard work. Basically we are doing the job the players' agent should be doing!
St Jim Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Nixon is positive on it. Reckons that this will not drag on, the fact that Bologna came over here to close the deal is a 'massive step' and suggests that Southampton are still confident of the deal We wait and see
CanadaSaint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Note to self: I must learn to read the last page first when catching up on overnight posts. And then I could save myself reading a load of utter testicles.

supersonic Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 why are people still clinging onto tweets from a mirror journalist who dodges questions when asked? Numerous sources in Italy have said this, `deal is off, which it most probably is, let's more on and focus on getting a CB and Phillips
shurlock Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Lets just sign craig noone, chris burke and albert adomah, get it out of the system and return to reality.

Thedelldays Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 If we don't sign him.... Who else is going to join me in.......
fish fingers Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 If we don't sign him.... Who else is going to join me in....... Yep, they can have my 2010-11 season ticket booklet back. Disgrace.
Saint Charlie Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Nasty Nic. It's all his fault. If you want to blame anyone then Guly could have worked harder to get it done. Lazy sod.

Numerous sources in Italy have said this, `deal is off, which it most probably is, let's more on and focus on getting a CB and Phillips Here is a novel idea. As you seem so sure that the deal will never happen, why not let those that want to keep following it do so and leave this thread alone. Numerous sources in Italy basically said "done deal" last week and that obviously wasn't the case so maybe there are still some twists yet? Not sure what your problem is?
Frank's cousin Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Presidente Cortese shaping deals come Bologna - Ramirez house sales driving talkings but over outcomes tomorrows - Fans saints making fightings eating working times with Turkish boys prospect of creaming following beatings Cortese presidente if Ramierz follows through. Cortese niente sigings Ramirez other players baffoon talking angry turkish boys come Wednesday - 'doomed I tell you'
Dig Dig Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 If you want to blame anyone then Guly could have worked harder to get it done. Lazy sod. That goes without saying. I'd also like to blame Adkins for not being a big enough name in order to attract players.
supersonic Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 So journalist in England = wrong, journalists in Italy = right On what is that based? What makes one more reliable to you than the other? read the information. The nixon guy just keeps saying "you are confident" whereas the quotes from Italy talk with knowledge
fish fingers Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 This is quite clearly the fault of Paul Telfer, Jermaine Wright, Paul Wotton and Guly. Some how they have come together and forced this deal to fall through. Boooooo
landford.saint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Just got back from work, and am mightily confused. We seem to have Italian tweeters saying its all off, yet others quoting Nixon saying its all on. Have we any reports from RELIABLE sources that given an indication one way or other what is going on? Or is all this threads banter just unsubstantiated 'testicles' as someone put it, and really noone has any idea? Does anyone really have any idea what is actually going on?
Foxy Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Daniele Labanti™@DL_corriere @SalgadoLord impossible to reach an agreement on terms of payment so far Daniele Labanti™@DL_corriere @SalgadoLord bolognafc put a sort of 'ultimatum'..today deadline.an insider told it is quite over, very difficult to change the situation Daniele Labanti™@DL_corriere @AlexMasoon quite over, not all over. deadline is set up today from bolognafc chairman Well, that's clear then. I'm off to get a beer.
itchen_dan Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 As I have just said to Nixon, maybe we are trying to make Bologna feel that the deal is off due to the price to try and force them to lower their demands? If they don't (which looks like it), then maybe we'll give in and say "ok, we'll pay full price". Would be a very dodgy time to start doing this but Nixon says that the club are extremely confident that we'll get the deal done. Because we have managed to get the Bologna chairman over here, he says its a massive step and I'm sure we arent gonna let the deal pass us by now?
mitch01 Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Very much still on according to Nixon. I suggest we stop looking for minute to minute updates, cross our fingers and wait for any announcement.
