Phil the Saint Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Just back from the family fun day at St Mary's where the squad were holding a training session and Saga was involved with the 1st team training session but no sign of Stern John? I thought Saga had gone? Anybody else there who can confirm? Euell and BWP training with the reserves at the far end and looked like Skacel on crutches by the side of the pitch.

John is playing for Trinidad tomorrow.
Master Bates Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 The Saganowski you saw, does he looks like Morgan Schneiderlin?
Micky Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Is this the new 'should of gone to Specsavers' ad....!!!!
Saint2Hotty Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 John is playing for Trinidad tomorrow. Skacel hobbled off last night in the ressy game against reading.
Saint Martini Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 There's nothing on the Aab website about him returning and he's still in their squadlist on the website. I think you might have mistaken someone's identity.
Colinjb Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 The Saganowski you saw, does he looks like Morgan Schneiderlin? Haha!
ottery st mary Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Maybe Saga popped in to collect his toothbrush and was asked to give the strikers a little advice/ coaching on goalscoring technique which he once showed for Saints. for a couple of games.
SaintDonkey Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Odd that Saga was there - it's nearly 2 weeks since they announced he was off on loan. My Danish is non-existant but I think he was named in their squad just 2 days ago http://www.aabsport.dk/29B847C9-6F3D-46F1-A2EA-6180A17183B3.W5Doc?id=7AEACE74-BD22-4601-850B-88B822D23A14
SaintDonkey Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 He must have confused him with BWP Surely not - Saga's much taller
Wes Tender Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Surely not - Saga's much taller ....and his hair is longer too.
OldNick Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 ....and his hair is longer too. I just thought that Saga might have been standing in the shade and so a mix up
Saint Martini Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Strange, maybe he was here to pick up some stuff during the international break and asked if he could train with the squad? Can't really believe that he's been send or called back.
sponger Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 It was Saga according to a friend at St Marys. I'm pretty confident he would get it right. Have no idea why he is still here though unless the deal is off.

Phil the Saint Posted 19 August, 2008 Author Posted 19 August, 2008 Clearly there was nothing wrong with my eyesight as several other posters have agreed it was Saga. He was definitely training with the 1st team.
Micky Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Clearly there was nothing wrong with my eyesight as several other posters have agreed it was Saga. He was definitely training with the 1st team. Unreserved apologies - I'll get my ass down to Specsavers before I make any more smart assed comments in future...!!!
Phil the Saint Posted 19 August, 2008 Author Posted 19 August, 2008 Unreserved apologies - I'll get my ass down to Specsavers before I make any more smart assed comments in future...!!! No worries I thought I was seeing things myself and was arguing with my 11 year old son that it couldn't be Saga but it was!
VectisSaint Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 The deal can't be "off", he's already played twice for them! Could there be a recall clause in the loan deal? I know there are certain rules for season long loan deals in England, but there are different rules for international loans
OldNick Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 he is on loan to Dec but was training here training today. Can't find out reason yet.
Saint Martini Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Could there be a recall clause in the loan deal? I know there are certain rules for season long loan deals in England, but there are different rules for international loans I really don't know, but since its within the transferwindow maybe its allowed. But like I said, maybe he's jsut in town picking things up during the international break and he wanted to train, its a bit strange but maybe even more logical then recalling him after 1 week.
slickmick Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 The plot thickens. Can't see Saga being recalled unless John,Bwp or McGoldrich are going. Even then it would have to be 2 of the 3.
SaintDonkey Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 I guess VectisSaint must be right but it does seem odd - as far as I can make out he's played for Aalburg twice already and scored a goal http://www.aabsport.dk/aabfodbold/statistik surely they wouldn't send him home unless he was injured - and if he were injured why would he be in training? Maybe he wanted to say his goodbyes?

Minsk Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 He left quickly, he can't have finalised moving etc. So logically he'd have to come back. It's an international week, maybe he's playing for Poland too. A trip back to soton to finish moving isn't that odd, neither is training with the club who still own him. I doubt, sadly, that he'll be playing for us again. I doubt he would be training with us today if he is playing for Poland in Kiev tomorrow. My GUESS is that he has come over to sort out some business during the 'international break' and as we are still his parent club he asked, and was allowed, to do a training session whilst here.
Master Bates Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Was Surman there at least? Good question imo
ottery st mary Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Was Surman there at least? There are two in the photo , so we only need nine more for Saturday.

Phil the Saint Posted 19 August, 2008 Author Posted 19 August, 2008 Was Surman there at least? Yes Surman was there and looked well up for it.
SaintDonkey Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 He scored a yellow card, not a goal. Oops - I just saw the 'G' and leapt to a very very wrong conclusion
saintjay77 Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Surley if he is not part of the 1st team plans then he wouldnt be training with the 1st team?????? Look at the others that are either off or not expected to be here. They all train with the reserves or kids so if Saga is back just to collect his things and thought he would get a training session in while he was here it would also be away from the 1st team as his envolvment would disrupt those that will actually be in the 1st team?????
once_bitterne Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Surley if he is not part of the 1st team plans then he wouldnt be training with the 1st team??????

Maybe he offered the club a tenner to train?
saintjay77 Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Maybe he offered the club a tenner to train? Prices for saints training sessions have gone down in price on Ebay then.
Redondo Saint Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Surley if he is not part of the 1st team plans then he wouldnt be training with the 1st team??????

Agreed. Q: Why would highly paid footballer on his day off ask to train with team he has left on loan? A: He wouldn't. Hopefully he is coming back.
BotleySaint Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 unless of course his club told him that he had to train if he wanted the time away?
Isla Wight Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 Family fun day ???? Better had enjoyed it because it won't be much fun watching the team with the worst defence last year continually concede more goals this season. Lowe out Wilde out
Weston Super Saint Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 It was Saga. LOL is that a picture from the upcoming Blackpool game?
ypbl Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 he is back as John is off to palace fact or conjecture? (or guess)
benjii Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 LOL is that a picture from the upcoming Blackpool game?
Whitey Grandad Posted 19 August, 2008 Posted 19 August, 2008 LOL is that a picture from the upcoming Blackpool game? Very good. It even made me chuckle.
