Matthew Le God Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Arsenal - apart from that year the colour ran. http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Arsenal/Arsenal.htm Have you actually looked at that link? That isn't the same style and colours for the entire history.
Colinjb Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Name a professional English team that has had the same style kit and colours for their entire history. None, which makes it more significant when something long lasting is drastically altered.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Name a professional English team that has had the same style kit and colours for their entire history. Swansea City http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Swansea_City/Swansea_City.htm
Tokyo-Saint Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Have you actually looked at that link? That isn't the same style and colours for the entire history. AFC Wimbledon http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Wimbledon_AFC/afc-wimbledon.html
Matthew Le God Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Swansea City http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Swansea_City/Swansea_City.htm Again, simply not true. That shows a range of style and colour combinations.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 MK Dons (slight style changes but generally very similar with the next keeping in line with the last, keeping the identity of the club) http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Milton_Keynes_Dons/Milton_Keynes_Dons.htm
Matthew Le God Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 AFC Wimbledon http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Wimbledon_AFC/afc-wimbledon.html Again, simply not true. That shows a range of style and colour combinations. No yellow at all on the first kit. So how is it the same style and colour for the "entire history".
Tokyo-Saint Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Alright big nose - beat this. Stalybridge Celtic http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Stalybridge_Celtic/Stalybridge_Celtic.htm OOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH
Colinjb Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Again, simply not true. That shows a range of style and colour combinations. No yellow at all on the first kit. So how is it the same style and colour for the "entire history". Predominantly blue with yellow trim. Just the 'emergency' pre-season kit from when they first formed is very different. That was basically a promotional kit supplied directly from the Sports Interactive shop at the time. Come on MLG, you of all people should know this!!

That shows a range of style and colour combinations. Some of the kits have red on them, some have no red at all. Some have a lot of black, some very little black. So how is that the same style and colours for their entire history?
Olallana Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Alright big nose - beat this. Stalybridge Celtic http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Stalybridge_Celtic/Stalybridge_Celtic.htm OOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH What about Bootle and Nelson!!!
Matthew Le God Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Can we keep on topic MLG, this isn't another kit thread Agreed, lets take this to one of the many kit threads then.

Tokyo-Saint Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 What about Bootle and Nelson!!! Good point. let's face it here are loads. Back to who isn't going to sign for us. Oh sorry - + 1 rep points.
SuperSAINT Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Nathan Redmond has signed for Norwich. Good signing for them.

SouthamptonFC: MP: "That shows we're a serious and ambitious club. Unfortunately we don't have space for all the players we've been linked with!" #saintsfc JonnyFordham: Poch: "The players will come that we think will add to our squad already." #saintsfc alex_crook: Pochettino: "Southampton has certain principles and values in the way we carry out negotiations set out by the chairman." #saintsfc Seems to be no rush...

Batman Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 We'll sign when we want We'll sign when we waaaaaaaat No sleep for Alpine, we'll sign when we want he is going to go nuts when reading what MP has said. absolutely mental
itchen_dan Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 SouthamptonFC: MP on transfers: "We have certain positions we want to reinforce. I am confident that our goals will be met." #saintsfc JonnyFordham: Poch on Wanyama: "It could happen. We have positions we want to reinforce. I'm confident our goals will be met" #saintsfc

itchen_dan Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 alex_crook: Pochettino: "I know Ever Banega. He is Argentinian. He plays well. He is a player we are considering." #saintsfc #transfers Love the fact he is much more open re: targets and transfers. Never understood Adkins' "close to chest" mentality.
itchen_dan Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 SouthamptonFC: MP: "My message to the supporters is that we want to bring in players who will improve the squad and to encourage competition." #saintsfc
Batman Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 far more open about potential transfers than recent years
Turkish Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 alex_crook: Pochettino: "I know Ever Banega. He is Argentinian. He plays well. He is a player we are considering." #saintsfc #transfers Love the fact he is much more open re: targets and transfers. Never understood Adkins' "close to chest" mentality. MLG will hate it as he lauded Adkins tight lippedness as it will alert them to our targets.
itchen_dan Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 JonnyFordham: Poch: "We manage a lot of information about good players - Damiao is one, also Banega and Wanyama" #saintsfc
Colinjb Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 JonnyFordham: Poch: "We manage a lot of information about good players - Damiao is one, also Banega and Wanyama" #saintsfc I wonder what he means by 'managing' information?
Turkish Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 I wonder what he means by 'managing' information? keeping an eye on their FM stats, obviously.
Olallana Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 I wonder what he means by 'managing' information? Something lost in translation perhaps......"We gather a lot of information"....."We collect a lot of information"..... And I think there is something lost in the translation with all this "I want to congratulate the players"......I think it should be another word there to make more sense in the spanish to english translation......
Sour Mash Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 alex_crook: Pochettino: "I know Ever Banega. He is Argentinian. He plays well. He is a player we are considering." #saintsfc #transfers Love the fact he is much more open re: targets and transfers. Never understood Adkins' "close to chest" mentality. I thought we loved the fact that our club didn't comment on transfers until they were completed or is that old hat now?
Giordano Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Kevin Strootman. If we are keen on centre midfield then he would be awesome. Toughtackling, defensive mid. Age 23. 6ft 1. Even looks like Morgan so it would be like there is two of them on the pitch... Dutch international, Psv Eindhoven. Cost: unknown. Likeliness factor: 2% chance.
Saint Charlie Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 West Brom going for Anelka. Poor, poor signing.
Turkish Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 I thought we loved the fact that our club didn't comment on transfers until they were completed or is that old hat now? it's like the brilliant policy we had under Adkins on not revealing injuries as apparently it would give the other team an advantage, not so good now. Seems that that is the philospophy of a clueless grining bumpkin who was out of his depth and talked a load of waffle.
Saint Charlie Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Poor, but he'll score opening day. And then never again. Very uninspiring IMO.
Olallana Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Kevin Strootman. If we are keen on centre midfield then he would be awesome. Toughtackling, defensive mid. Age 23. 6ft 1. Even looks like Morgan so it would be like there is two of them on the pitch... Dutch international, Psv Eindhoven. Cost: unknown. Likeliness factor: 2% chance. Yes please. But he´s in for bigger clubs now. We can come back to him in two years time when we´re in CL

Seems that that is the philospophy of a clueless grining bumpkin who was out of his depth and talked a load of waffle. Right, which approach is the Southampton Way for us to lead on and others to follow?
trousers Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 (edited) Interesting choice of words (if reported word for word)... wouldn't we have to be in fairly advanced talks with these players for Pochettino to know that they'd be happy to come to Saints? BBC Solent Sport @solentsport Pochettinho on Banega, Osvaldo, & Damiao: "All those players are very good footballers & they'd all be really happy to come to #saintsfc" Edited 4 July, 2013 by trousers
Olallana Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 West Brom going for Anelka. Poor, poor signing. West Brom is a strange one at the moment IMO. They´re in a position to kick on and go for it (a top 6th spot), but seems like they´re not wanting that.
max_saints Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 Kevin Strootman. If we are keen on centre midfield then he would be awesome. Toughtackling, defensive mid. Age 23. 6ft 1.

Olallana Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 One thing that pops to mind though. No questions about possible wingers....
Saint Charlie Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 One thing that pops to mind though. No questions about possible wingers.... Seems very much strikers and central midfielders. No full backs also. He may feel for RB we are covered by Clyne, Chambers and then Lovren and Cork's ability to play there. No point blocking Chambers' path. Out wide we have fewer options though.

BBC Solent Sport @solentsport Pochettinho on Banega, Osvaldo, & Damiao: "All those players are very good footballers & they'd all be really happy to come to #saintsfc" Remotely possible that something may be lost in translation ?

Out wide we have fewer options though. would you be happy with signed say another top central midfielder and say damiao? that would mean a window of Lovren, wanyama, Damiao??????
Bewildered Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 i'd like another, more competent left back to serve as cover for Shaw. one that could be put in the team is he needed a rest and not be a total liability. I wonder if Targett will have some kind of role next season.

I wonder if Targett will have some kind of role next season. just now we have 5 CBs two of which are competent at LB, that should be enough with Shaw and Targett and of course Fox.
Turkish Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 just now we have 5 CBs two of which are competent at LB, that should be enough with Shaw and Targett and of course Fox. who are these people?
Giordano Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 less than 2% chance mate, united want him and can't even get him. Yup less than 2% chance then, but Roma are sniffing around him and think $14m tops will get him - according to Corriero dello sport. If Non-CL, non EL Roma are sniffing anyone then Saints are entitled to have a sniff too :-).
Saint Charlie Posted 4 July, 2013 Posted 4 July, 2013 would you be happy with signed say another top central midfielder and say damiao? that would mean a window of Lovren, wanyama, Damiao?????? Would like a wide player too, but coupled to retaining existing players, if we signed those two plus Lovren we would be much stronger next season.
