dubai_phil Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 Fantastic 5 pages of excitement about a player who hasn't made the grade at his last 3 clubs, one of which being the mighty Norwich Shows how much we miss takeover threads!
hypochondriac Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 So we have to sell to buy? Hope it's Lallana or Surman and not Davis.
Big Bad Bob Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 So we have to sell to buy? Hope it's Lallana or Surman and not Davis. I'll say this for the 100th time in the hope that someone at SFC gets the message, just in case. IF WE SELL DAVIS WE WILL, NOT MIGHT, WILL BE RELEGATED!!!
dubai_phil Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 I still want him!! oh well I REALLY hope you meant that in a Footballing sort of way....
thorpie the sinner Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 Why yes of course!!! I think of Southampton FC as a rest home for aged or crap footballers. We revitalise them and send them on their on their way to a better club!!!!
Saint_clark Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 I'll say this for the 100th time in the hope that someone at SFC gets the message, just in case. IF WE SELL DAVIS WE WILL, NOT MIGHT, WILL BE RELEGATED!!! I agree it will be tough, but we cannot say with any certainty it will happen. Forecast may turn out to be better.
Thedelldays Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 i wonder what the reaction would be if it was steve howard being linked with the club....much like the usual reaction he gets on here.....still, he has made the grade in this league...which is more that can be said for lupoli
NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 He turned us down in the end, coming to a Forest near you 100% true. I promise. If not i will post a naked picture of me on here if its not confirmed by the weekend oh my god! if fact that the rumour wasn't true wasn't bad enough!
Scudamore Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 i wonder what the reaction would be if it was steve howard being linked with the club....much like the usual reaction he gets on here.....still, he has made the grade in this league...which is more that can be said for lupoli DellDays is looking for a fight if anyone's interested...
derry Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 If we where to play a 4-4-2 with two out and out strikers then a right sided player who comes inside isn't a totally bad thing, as long as Holmes spends the whole game out wide strecthing teams then it should be ok. It makes the team, narrow and lopsided, no crosses from the right byeline to the left back post and worse nobody on the right back post when crosses coming in from the left. Lallana always gets sucked in to the near post. I know it's a different level, Utd are brilliant at playing both touchlines, then always hold back two players attacking the back post as the defence is sucked in, then outnumbered. If the wide man comes in, somsbody else takes the touchline, we don't do this and it is fundamental.
NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 i wonder what the reaction would be if it was steve howard being linked with the club....much like the usual reaction he gets on here.....still, he has made the grade in this league...which is more that can be said for lupoli think we argue enough about present players, then add the past players -so don't think we need a debate on two player who have never played for us nor firmly linked!
Saint Fan CaM Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 I am going to be mighty disappointed if this particular bleedin' rumour is a wind-up. We need another decent striker so McGoaldrought can be put back in the reserves to practice what he's paid to do. At least that way he might get a bit more hungry for a game. I suspect Saga will be costing too much money for Lowe's liking.
Thedelldays Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 DellDays is looking for a fight if anyone's interested... lol

Thedelldays Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 2 in 2 games etc, give him a break hmmm...is the season two games old/long...?
Stu Man Do Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 Cant be arsed to look through 5 pages of no doubt "stimulating" lupoli based conjecture but the sun has a "club sources" quoted as saying no meeting between us and lupoli or his agents has happened. Add this one to the list of ****e rumours then along with dos santos? lol
NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 no its not. But would you change a defence after two clean sheets etc? He has done ok over the season -if he goes on a run now he will be doing well, if he stops scoring and someone else is available you change it around.

NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 had some not good enough games but he has got ok scoring record so far.
Scudamore Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 Thing with McGoldrick is that he is pretty sh:t playing as the lone striker...but is pretty good when played in the hole...
Thedelldays Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 had some not good enough games but he has got ok scoring record so far. what annoys people is when they see (quite alot) lack of effort...as he has the skill to do the job...
hypochondriac Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 what annoys people is when they see (quite alot) lack of effort...as he has the skill to do the job... I don't think he is very good but I can see the sense in playing him in the next game.
NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 what annoys people is when they see (quite alot) lack of effort...as he has the skill to do the job... posted before so will make it short...saw him playing for youth/reserves that season when he got huge goal tally, he was poor, arrogant but knew he would score and did. Think he is suffering from being young, thrown in underperforming side without experienced support behind/alongside him and confidence. Think he will become decent player. But not a worker! 9 goals so far is not bad.

NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 it was wrong. He hasn't signed. Jan on radio tonight saying no-one else close to coming in but would review it if someone left but no talk of anyone leaving.
hugh Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 I guess this so called transfer has now gone the way of the Dailly one. Not going to happen. Were we not going to be taken over today as well???? Personally I am looking forward to seeing the home débuts of two players and the return of another tomorrow.

Yes Hugh I think you may well be right
The Godfather Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 it was wrong. He hasn't signed. Jan on radio tonight saying no-one else close to coming in but would review it if someone left but no talk of anyone leaving. I think all the club have done is have players lined up if a club(s) comes in for Euell, Saga & co.
saint_stevo Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 I think all the club have done is have players lined up if a club(s) comes in for Euell, Saga & co. you read 606 well done
NickG Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 in these times of cash shortages I don't think we can afford a secret player! We didn't sign him -the info was wrong!
Chez Posted 16 January, 2009 Posted 16 January, 2009 Saga has played one game you fukkin spaz. Mcgoaldrought has been everpresent, and isn't he sharp................... Calm down dear. Of course Saga has only played one (mind you he wasn't actually prolific last season was he with his massive 3 goals in total). I was just highlighting how pathetic your name calling is. It makes me laugh how precious people are about Dobie on here whilst at the same time laying into McGoldrick who is in his first full season in the first team.
Gordon Mockles Posted 17 January, 2009 Posted 17 January, 2009 I agree it will be tough, but we cannot say with any certainty it will happen. Forecast may turn out to be better. Do you really believe what you're saying there? No really, come on!
saint_stevo Posted 17 January, 2009 Posted 17 January, 2009 i am just getting my mum to take the picture now........
modern matron Posted 17 January, 2009 Posted 17 January, 2009 i am just getting my mum to take the picture now........ Hi Stevo I don't pm, but had to ask whether you're winding everyone up or do you still think Lupoli and co will sign? Take care Cheers Nick a la Modern Matron
NickG Posted 17 January, 2009 Posted 17 January, 2009 the info wasn't that he was going to sign -but that he already has! Judge the reliability yourself!
Master Bates Posted 17 January, 2009 Author Posted 17 January, 2009 the info wasn't that he was going to sign -but that he already has! Judge the reliability yourself! At least I put my hands up when I found out there were crossed wires, not many people do that.
westmidlandsaint Posted 17 January, 2009 Posted 17 January, 2009 This may be of interest to some of you but not to others and read in to it what you will, and make up your own minds. Lupoli, much to his annoyance, was yet again left on the bench today by Norwich. This was also much to the disgust of a large number of the Canary fan club who were hoping Bryan Gunn would play him in a bid to keep him happy and not jumping ship to a relegation rival. (the final score did dampen the feeling) During the game, Lupoli went for a warm up and certain sections of the Norwich fans started singing his name, to which the Barnsley fans started their own rendition of "oh when the saints" (not oh when the reds or oh when the tykes) This as you can imagine wasnt greated well by Norwich fans. However this does show the rumours are not confined to just Saints and Norwich. When Lupoli did come on, Norwich were awarded a penalty to which Lupoli grabbed the ball to take (typical striker, and good to see) but much to his annoyance the ball was taken off of him by Clingan and words were exchanged. At the end of the whistle and after a 4-0 win, it was all smiles at Norwich, except for one particular Italian.......
Greenridge Posted 17 January, 2009 Posted 17 January, 2009 Lupoli, much to his annoyance,.......... .........but much to his annoyance ....... Sounds like he was quite annoyed today
Saints foreva Posted 18 January, 2009 Posted 18 January, 2009 We are to hear something about this next week according to one of my friends.
