Things get lost in the huge transfer thread. A thread each for any half decent rumour means all discussion and links for that player is easy to find in one place.

Are the mods behind this approach?  Have you completed a hostile takeover of the forum?

'half decent'?  So about 5-10 new threads per day for the duration of the window?

Ah, so it's not an individual transfer thread for a player who's on the brink of signing, but an excuse for the resident pedant to post memes and gifs. I'm sure the main thread could have handled it but we must be in muppet show territory now.

If we're resorting to shitposting I think we need more work on some sweet Haribo/Aribo puns, I'm disappointed at the relative lack of them ever since he was linked to us a couple of years ago.

Where is this "half decent rumour"? Just listed with loads of other clubs as a maybe they're interested. Pretty obvious this morning there was nothing in this whatsoever.

If ever there was a rumour that just needed to stay on the standard Transfer Window thread, this was it.

I'll be "gutted" if we don't get him, he is the best player I had never heard of until yesterday, ever. If we don't make this happen I want everyone sacked, even Sammy Saint.

Sammy and Mary Saint have been sharing a life support machine after both of them nearly expired in the oppressive heat at St Marys on Saturday!!

Wow, MLG you have alot of devoted followers, this is about  a potential player and they all want to talkabout is you. You must feel proud of your followers hanging on your every word. They all jump to get in the first adorning response to appease you. You are truly a GOD.

You mean the thread we’ve been using all summer and discussed deals that were actually happening as opposed to forum conjecture and a few public qoutes of interest?

Well that’s my day buggered - because I still don’t get it, and I have 4 hours in the car today to mull it over and likely get home tonight still none the wiser. 
Still I guess it will pass the time when the novelty of seeing windscreen wipers sloshing back and forth wears off. 

Sorry folks even with the additional 1hr 56mins - I’m still no closer to getting it 😢😁3B92ACD7-C059-4DB3-9D74-A665B33BD0AB.thumb.jpeg.dafd388887c78dc540e1b2935bbadf5e.jpeg

I'm not going to respond or even read this thread now until he signs for Saints, another club or stays at Man United into September. 🙄😁

I bet you do.

What a silly billy, again.

I drove past St. Mary's earlier.

There was a bloke who struck me as rather pedantic looking, standing outside the stadium, holding what appeared to be, a 24 hour vigil.  He was holding a massive banner which read "PLEEEEEASE SIGN JAMES GARNER NOW. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU GET THIS TRANSACTION COMPLETED FORTHWITH". 

I sounded my horn in support. He shouted back at me that it is "actually unlawful to sound ones horn after the hours of darkness unless it is in the case of an emergency"

I don't think it was MLG though......he'd spelt "PLEASE" incorrectly.

If this sets a precedent for rumour threads, as per the really desperate "A thread each for any half decent rumour", what's to stop someone flooding the board with any old rubbish link?

They'll point to this thread and say "what's good for the goose, is good for the garner." 🙂

I’m afraid that ship sailed a long time ago

Classic MLG! 

Spends all summer nitpicking and being a pedant. 

Makes a total tit of himself and when confronted it was another of his hilarious [sarcasm] jokes.

Spends the rest of the time explaining joke and backtracking.

Weapon!

He's conspicuously been off the forum since basically his last involvement in this thread as well. The shame must be too much.

thats another MLG tactic, he'll disapear for a few days after mugging himself off. By an amazing coincidence TWar did exactly the same thing when he made himself look a complete whopper.

I dont understand why MLG gets such a tough time on here. There are many who have posted over the years who are irritating but they still add to this forum. Sadly many took the insults badly and have left. Hence the forum gets weaker each year.

MLG may be a pedant but he also adds research and info. Leave him alone or put him on ignore.

Agree. Unfortunately the playground bullies on here have nothing better to do.

My take is that all on here have Saints best interests at heart and are decent people. It is easy to pick on one poster, then many join the gang as they find it amusing. Not realising that it is upsetting the poster. 

Crikey I doubt not one of us has said things that niggle, and we dont know each persons circumstances. Leave MLG alone IMo

Give it a rest. You must have looked out specially to see MLG is online, dont you think that is a bit weird?

No more strange than posting a gushing piece about leaving him alone. 

I like his posting and think he deals (mostly) in facts, which gets lost on the ridiculous emotion of football.  However, he brings some of the light-hearted attention on himself when he routinely hijacks threads and establishes himself as the 'standard-bearer'.  When he gets it wrong.......

One thing is for sure, I rarely see anyone get personal about him/to him, which others have to endure on regular occasions

Gushing ffs, behave. I take on board what you say, and would post similar if you were being constantly picked on. 

IMO there does seem to be a few who just go at MLG. Anyway i dont know any of you and so does it matter?
