thorpie the sinner Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 Our big target is down St Mary's looking around, I was told which club he was from but even I think it's bloody madness. Will pray something is announced soon but it's jolly exciting if we get him. The source is fantastic and only Thorpie knows who it is. Oh God, I have been outed!!!!!

Wade Garrett Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 Reckon it's Osvaldo. Also reckon we will sign Banega. I have to qualify this by making it clear I know absolutely jack sh*t really.

alpine_saint Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 What should they do to speed it up? Which parts are taking them longer than they should? Who is on the committee? Who has the final say? How much money do they have to spend? What's the wage limit? What positions are the after? How many are we targeting? Is it possible to go after loads of players at once? Do the committee all get involved in negotiations with clubs, players, agents? What are the intricate details of other club's transfer dealings? Do other clubs all complete deals faster from targeting to completion? Do Saints complete deals less frequently and more slowly than under previous management/ownership? I do not know any of these answers, so I don't make bold comments about the process, but I'd love some more insight. You must have it, despite never sharing it, otherwise you'd be nothing more than an impatient childish fcknugget....which seems unlikely. Right? Ay up, my abusive judgmental stalker is back, right on time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfc4prem Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 Astori surely? He wouldn't double our transfer record though. Osvaldo or Damiao would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 I dont want Osvaldo here. He thinks we arent big enough or established enough. It isn't unreasonable someone would want to join a Champions League team in a big European League over Saints. If he did sign, would that not then suggest he did want to join?

Webby Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 With this talk of 'managing when we sign players' or words to that effect in MP's recent presser, I have a feeling that, ideally, Saints would like to make a big impact with the fans and the media by announcing 2 or 3 big signings at once. Perhaps 2 tomorrow plus Shaw?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 11 July, 2013 Share Posted 11 July, 2013 now a run out in the dog crap at Birch Lawn would clinch any deal. Think they played at Eastleigh though.
