alpine_saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Share 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... Feel a bit sorry for him too. Signing for a PL team is probably a pinnacle of your career, and its been overshadowed. Bloody cortese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSAINT Posted 18 January, 2013 Share 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. So we really can only do one deal at a time then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had none of this Adkins sacking occured, he'd have had a lovely reception on Monday. Now he's going to wonder what he's walked into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 This is the epitome of stage management. Can you imagine the calls from Cortese to his agent? 'Just hold on a bit. I need you to be part of a press announcement that makes everything look alright again and takes the flak off me'. Berk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 Very very odd for them to announce the deal at that press conference, especially because it is clear that our MP has nothing to do with the deal. I thought that maybe they were going to get him to come into the press conference, a bit like Remy did at QPR, but it was kind of a side comment, and nothing official. Im guessing it will get all the pictures/video/interview all up on Saints website in the next few hours, but still very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutwood2 Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 Would normally be delighted with this signing but am still too stunned to form a normal reaction to it.

Quite why you've decided it's for you to deride other fans for being angry and upset is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been hardly any loyalty in professional footbal, at least not for the best part of a century. Just convenience and money. If this bloke plays well for 6 months and gets tapped up by Inter, he'll be off straight away. Edited 18 January, 2013 by Faz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grammy Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 Post of the day Imo. Feel sorry for Nigel who has done a blinding job and will always be a saints legend but think this has been coming for a while. If Nicola truly believes this is part of taking us up to the next level then hopefully we shall see some quality signings to back it up. Let's get behind Mauriccio and the boys and play our part help keep this club up.
