for_heaven's_Saint Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 So easy to make up rumours. Clyne to Palace would be a good one. Unhappy to play second fiddle to Chambers.

Baird of the land Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Still hoping that we've got a loan target on ice waiting for his team team to tie up their preferred signing. Wouldn't even mind the likes of Vydra from WBA as cover if Mel gets the attacker he's after. I think the idea of no real competition for Rickie beyond a academy 18 yr old who had 1 league start would show a real lack of common sense.
Fowllyd Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Well, that's the way it's going to be so you can worry that we're all going to get hit by a meteorite tomorrow or get on with it..........I know what I'm doing. Yeah, I agree - I'm crapping myself about that meteorite too.
Jimmy_D Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Who was it that we managed to convince Leeds fans they were after last season?
Colinjb Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Who was it that we managed to convince Leeds fans they were after last season? Chaplow I think.

Common sense.
Minty Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 This is really, really dull Only if you were expecting the opposite of dull. I expected nothing and so am not disappointed.
thorpie the sinner Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Apparently Danny Ings just arrived at Southampton airport, 422pm flight from Manchester! I love Jim White day lol
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Some chap on Twitter just posted Danny ings arrived at Soton airport at 4.22pm. Prob not true & designed to prolong the agony but thought I'd share.

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Apparently Danny Ings just arrived at Southampton airport, 422pm flight from Manchester! I love Jim White day lol There was a 4.22 arrival at Soton Airport from Manchester so he's embellishing his rumours with fact!
DT Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Only if you were expecting the opposite of dull. I expected nothing and so am not disappointed. I was expecting dull but a teensy bit of spice
Matthew Le Tissier Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Not really kept under raps by flying in! Would be surprised of it was him But I have heard he's an option
kpturner Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Some chap on Twitter just posted Danny ings arrived at Soton airport at 4.22pm. Prob not true & designed to prolong the agony but thought I'd share.Popped down to see his mum
Badger Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Popped down to see his mum Can she play centre-half ?
Wrensup Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Nothing going to happen. The end Very dramatic! You never know...
buctootim Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Some chap on Twitter just posted Danny ings arrived at Soton airport at 4.22pm. Prob not true & designed to prolong the agony but thought I'd share. Damn. By the time he gets to SMS it will be gone 5pm and everyone will have gone home. So close
kpturner Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Can she play centre-half ?Yes - but not very well.
Delboy Dave Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 I kinda feel like we need someone, but theres no point panic buying. The staff and management team are obviously happy, but I feel a bit nervous, even if we have only lost squad players + Osvaldo
Chez Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 couldn't we have used the Osvaldo money to steal Yevhen Konoplyanka from under Liverpool's noses like they did to us with Coutinho? He looked a proper livewire in the Ukraine game against England at their place. I'm in dreamworld aren't I.
Batman Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 I kinda feel like we need someone, but theres no point panic buying. The staff and management team are obviously happy, but I feel a bit nervous, even if we have only lost squad players + Osvaldo why is buying someone now classed as panic buying? our short comings at CB once Jose or Dejan are out have been there for all to see. I kind of hoped we have been constantly scouting people and have had various targets lined up dont get how getting someone in a designated transfer window is panic buying?

Signings are bonuses in my eyes, not something to expect in a January window.
Batman Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 nervous about what? Signings are bonuses in my eyes, not something to expect in a January window. why is it something we should not expect in a designated transfer window?
S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Nice one SSN. 'Fulham are hopeful Holtby will be available for tomorrows, crucial, bottom of the table clash with Southampton. Obviously Southampton are a bit higher up, but it's a huge game'' Err yes, nice one.

I kind of hoped we have been constantly scouting people and have had various targets lined up dont get how getting someone in a designated transfer window is panic buying? it's not, but I doubt we had it in mind to buy a striker up until a week or so ago.

Obviously Southampton are a bit higher up, but it's a huge game'' Err yes, nice one.could be a good signing that for Fulham. Their centre midfield looked terrible against us last time out.
Delboy Dave Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 nervous about what? Signings are bonuses in my eyes, not something to expect in a January window. Well, nervous about squad depth and options I guess. Like I said I know its mainly squad players that have gone but it still makes me feel like "what if"? What if Lamberts injury carries on for a few weeks and JRod picks up a knock for example? Where are up the creek!
St_Tel49 Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 why is it something we should not expect in a designated transfer window? Why is it something we should expect?
Chez Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 why is it something we should not expect in a designated transfer window? You can expect signings if you want, but I said in my eyes I don't expect them.
Batman Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 (edited) Why is it something we should expect? because the club are letting its record signing go. We signed him for so much money for a reason. We needed another striker and a top quality one at that much like why we signed a top CB. we needed one if we are fine with gallagher and why did we push to sign ossie and spend so much money on him in the first place also, we tried to get Damiao. but why if we are all of a sudden fine with a rookie? Edited 31 January, 2014 by Batman
S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Why the hell are Stoke signing Lee Cattermole? Mark Hughes has actually lost it.
Batman Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 stoke are in real danger of going down I think fulham will go, they just let in so many goals, they will score a few but they (like us in 2005) just cant defend

We needed another striker and a top quality one at that much like why we signed a top CB. we needed one if we are fine with gallagher and why did we push to sign ossie and spend so much money on him in the first place I suspect it was a Cortese hissy fit signing
Pastor Patrón Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 because the club are letting its record signing go. We signed him for so much money for a reason. We needed another striker and a top quality one at that much like why we signed a top CB. we needed one if we are fine with gallagher and why did we push to sign ossie and spend so much money on him in the first place It was something of an extenuating circumstance though to be fair to the club, especially on top of all of the Cortese malarkey. I'm sure Pochettino wouldn't consider it an ideal situation.

I'm sure Pochettino wouldn't consider it an ideal situation. I know that he HAS to go. but I was thinking that the club are constantly scouting targets all over the show. I just cannot believe that if we are serious about the FA cup or maintaining a nice top half finish with that. We are going to let a striker good enough for Juve go and not replace him with any real quality. Not even a loan

Not even a loan Indeed but we've never been the quickest to get transfers across the line in the best of situations, so it was a tall order based on past form.
Batman Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Indeed but we've never been the quickest to get transfers across the line in the best of situations, so it was a tall order based of past form. we were all told (mainly on here) that it was because NC was impossible to deal with..........

Like I said I know its mainly squad players that have gone but it still makes me feel like "what if"? What if Lamberts injury carries on for a few weeks and JRod picks up a knock for example? Where are up the creek! understandable, and the left and right wing (do we even play one of those - its more Lallana in the hole) are positions we don't have a great deal of options in, but the way I see it, we have plenty of players, so we'll field a half decent side come what may. If our best players get injured it will be weaker, but that's life. The one injury away from Jos concept doesn't worry me that much at all. I know the club has moved on from the nightmares financial problems of the past, but I still just can't let myself get worked up about whether or not we have spent a wedge in the window. As long as the club is ticking over reasonably and we are not ****ing ourselves with outrageous contracts that would kill us if things went pair shaped that I'm ok. Obviously being content is not allowed on here, you have to have ambitions of grandeur, but not too much otherwise Turkish will take you to pieces.
Leicestersaint Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 I am quite relaxed about not signing people - although we do need a top notch centre back, and fast forward and a decent back-up keeper. I am sure that the players we have got can do us proud for the rest of the season, injuries permitting.
Chez Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 stoke are in real danger of going down I think fulham will go, they just let in so many goals, they will score a few but they (like us in 2005) just cant defend Fulham are the worst side I've seen this season. Have they improved much since their visit to SMS?
Batman Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 Fulham are the worst side I've seen this season. Have they improved much since their visit to SMS? I cant see us dominating them like we did at SMS. we are away for a start. losing tomorrow will be a very poor result
Chez Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 we were all told (mainly on here) that it was because NC was impossible to deal with.......... who knows if that was true, but if the clubs policy on minimising agent fees hasn't changed then quick transfer are unlikely to happen. Large agent fees tend to oil the wheels these days.
S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2014 Posted 31 January, 2014 stoke are in real danger of going down I think fulham will go, they just let in so many goals, they will score a few but they (like us in 2005) just cant defend Surely if Hughes fails at Stoke, then he's finished as a top flight manager? How many more chances is he going to get....
