ollysaints1 Posted 17 January, 2013 Posted 17 January, 2013 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauricio_Pochettino Managed Espanyol from 09-12..... ...what a load of tosh this really is. I have actually heard of him then, on the basis that he was the one who fouled Owen for the peanlty scored by Becks
Professor Posted 17 January, 2013 Posted 17 January, 2013 The loan out of Seaborne shows that Forren is a done deal so that we will still have 3 fit CBs for the Everton game. The Everton game being on Monday has meant that the signing is not as urgent as it would have been if the team were playing on Saturday. I'm sure we can forget about the speculation and simply wait for the announcement on the OS.
Appy Posted 17 January, 2013 Posted 17 January, 2013 Alex Goring Crook @alex_crook Think tomorrow could be a busy day at #saintsfc
maysie Posted 17 January, 2013 Posted 17 January, 2013 Alex Goring Crook @alex_crook Think tomorrow could be a busy day at #saintsfc New manager and new player, can't wait!

MOSaint Posted 17 January, 2013 Posted 17 January, 2013 @alex_crook @ConnorArmstrong certainly Forren. Possibly something else. Apologies for vagueness. Have been unable to stand up what I'm hearing.
hypochondriac Posted 17 January, 2013 Posted 17 January, 2013 Oh crap - here we go. Calm down. It won't happen.

I'm sure we can forget about the speculation and simply wait for the announcement on the OS. Out of interest, are you sure about that? I thought player still had to be registered by noon Friday for games moved from the usual Saturday fixture - I am sure that is the case for Sunday games - not quite so sure for Monday, but is the FA open Sunday for player registrations (outside of deadline Sunday)?? Do agree that we would not have been foolish enough to let Seaborne go without cover - unless Fonte is back??

Regardless of whether it is tomorrow or Saturday I would imagine the deal is wrapped up already. Probably just waiting until tomorrow to officially announce it. NA and NC wouldnt be that stupid.
dubai_phil Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 so from twitter tonight, Forren will be announced tomorrow alongside Adders who knows nothing about him. Adders will then leave the conference, shake hands with new manager Pochettino who will also say he doesnt know anything about Forren. Forren then leaves club as he feels unloved??? just a normal night on twitter, good ol Flash, I blame the snow!!!! Jeez - if only all this stuff was as simple as Golf. Dubai Saints Day out in Corporate today - gonna be a messi one
thorpie the sinner Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Jeez - if only all this stuff was as simple as Golf. Dubai Saints Day out in Corporate today - gonna be a messi one Hope Rosey comes up trumps!! Absolute star player now! Have a good one cocker
There when Franny scored Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 http://www.express.co.uk/football/view/371637
Toadhall Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 http://www.express.co.uk/football/view/371637 Excellent but just a punt to be in first (not that I don't think its true). Bottom left on that piece has Di Mattio linked to Villa
fanimal Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 They are just waiting for the snow to get really deep so he will feel at home!
Pilchards Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 I've heard he's flown back home as he hates this snowy weather we are having.
St.Patrik Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Just for your information Pilch - it´s snowing here up north as well and this weekend we expect cold weather from Russia coming here so -18 tomorrow - so he probbably has his shorts on in your so called fake winter : )
Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Where is all the twitter updates ?! Itchen_dan out FFS !!!
St.Patrik Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Twitter is busy with the Adkins rumours : /
Wes Tender Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 http://www.caughtoffside.com/2013/01/18/southampton-sign-norwegian-defender-vegard-forren-centre-back-to-be-unveiled-today/# This is the first one to have said that he has signed, and will be unveiled later today. OK, it's not a well known source, but nevertheless it's claiming a done deal.
Turkish Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 http://www.caughtoffside.com/2013/01/18/southampton-sign-norwegian-defender-vegard-forren-centre-back-to-be-unveiled-today/# This is the first one to have said that he has signed, and will be unveiled later today. OK, it's not a well known source, but nevertheless it's claiming a done deal. its probably another skate on a wind up Les.
Smirking_Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 I wonder if Saints are keeping it under wraps in order to try to get one over on Everton ?! I.e make them think he will be ineligible ? This of course, probably wont make any difference but it sort of fits with the lallana injury fiasco
Wes Tender Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Oh, re-reading it again, their source was the Express.
Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Caughtoffside, clubcall, teamtalk, all got no idea.
Saint Scott Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 So I imagine Vegard won't be signing now!
Colinjb Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 So I imagine Vegard won't be signing now! I would guess a conversation with the new manager would be a priority.
Lazlo78 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Is this down the crapper now then? Who knows, but it explains why it was dragging out for a few days...
itchen_dan Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 What I said on the Pochettino thread, Cortese hasnt been around to sign off the Forren deal. He has signed and will be unveiled later today, at the news conference probably.
JoeShmoe Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Be a bad news, good news sort of thing, appease the fans
Tor Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Forren has signed, and will be presented at the Press Conference together with the new Manager according to Molde local newspaper: http://fotball.rbnett.no/england/article264235.ece (Google translate, if you must ;-))
hypochondriac Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Be a bad news, good news sort of thing, appease the fans It will do nothing of the sort.
niceandfriendly Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 reeeeeeaallly hope this guy still signs.
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 reeeeeeaallly hope this guy still signs. Really hope he doesn't he seems far to decent for our morally bankrupt club if I were him I'd take the oppertunity to get a train to Liverpool for that trial afterall.
um pahars Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 And as with Delgado who signed around the time of the Gray/Strachan changeover, I assume this is not the manager (whichever of the two) signing???? Im obviously old fashioned, but much prefer a set up where the manager signs players he wants, rather than other people's choices.
Dig Dig Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 reeeeeeaallly hope this guy still signs. It will be announced later but hard for me to really give a sh!te
niceandfriendly Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 It will be announced later but hard for me to really give a sh!te Yeah, fair enough. Losing a manager and a potential new signing on the same day would suck more though.
Turkish Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Is it fair to say he isnt an Adkins signing now?
Toadhall Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 I wonder if the press stuff that's normally on Friday will be shown live on SSN?
niceandfriendly Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Is it fair to say he isnt an Adkins signing now? I think it has been fair to say for a long time that all our signings are committee based. We all knew that though, didn't we?
Dig Dig Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Yeah, fair enough. Losing a manager and a potential new signing on the same day would suck more though. Agree
craigthesaint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 deal done according to Solent on Twitter
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Is it fair to say he isnt an Adkins signing now? It's certainly fair to say he isn't a Pochetitno signing.
Toadhall Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 deal done according to Solent on Twitter Good oh a modicum of good news on black Friday.
SNSUN Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 This has been the most confusing day since I've been a Saints fan. Welcome Vegard, but I get the feeling you have't picked the greatest day to sign...
