CB Fry

He's not even back in training following the Euros so won't even be match fit until about Halloween.

I wish we were Swansea.

Williams wouldn't displace our first choice CBs but good luck to the dugout pioneers anyway.

Bizarre.

While you can see how desperate the MPs are I don't don't understand how this would really work, or be turned into electoral advantage come polling day. If it ends up with Corbyn and co relegated to the back benches then while that would be funny, it won't stop him. Plus the slavering idiot mob of hero-worshippers will continue their doe-eyed deification regardless, plus more bricks through windows and online rape threats ago-go. Plus this proto-Labour new opposition will almost certainly need propping up by the SNP at which point Scotland is truly gone for Labour for a generation. I just can't see enough MPs prepared to really pull the trigger. In a way Labour are going to lose the next election anyway so the PLP might as well suicide bomb the c#*# on to the back benches for the LOLs. But it's all playing into the hands of the reselection mob.

He's got a longer contract than Mane had, still three years on it. And not much better than Mane but is more of a goal scorer.

That's all great and good luck to them, but they won't be having 9 out of 11 from the academy in the regular season, especially as the likes of Dier and Alli did not actually come through the academy, they were signings like any other - Alli cost them as much as Cedric cost us. We are trying to do something similar and maybe we'll see someone new come through this season.

We? Me. It's going on my gravestone. I'm saying it was for the transfer window in 2006 which the summer I was between jobs and had stupid amounts of time on my hands and I collated every single transfer rumour into one long list, with added gags. What a thread that was. Its nice that it has lived on, just, over the years. Hate that urban dictionary definition though, even though I haven't read it for years.

What about the team that started their last competitive match?

All the good posters don't post any more and you can see why.

It's very sweet you replying to everything I post and even sweeter you feel the need to explain things I already know. Hint: Portuguese release clause fees have been discussed a million times on this forum, we don't need to go into the obvious technicalities every single time now. But yeah, there's definitely someone here who doesn't "get it". "Lol".

A quite delicious €45m release clause in his contract. Good old Portuguese football. Wikipedia tells me he gets sent off a lot. And doesn't seem to have played much, for anyone. I have completed my research and have concluded that he is sh it.

More than likely, especially as it would be a guaranteed evening game. A load of unnecessary ball ache. Still, there's a Portsmyth to be made here.

So Reading ended up South West and we ended up South East? Get the feeling that we had a word and said we didn't want to be in PFC's group. Because we're scared of them and would be intimidated or something. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I do like it when I acquire new fan-boys desperate for my attention. Well you get a big CB Fry thumbs up for not one but two quotes of my same post in the same day, but seeming to disagree with yourself about what point you want to make. Jolly well done.

Interesting that Sky say that poll "adds to Corbyns woes" when really it doesn't. He doesn't give two shiny sh ites about winning an election, except the one that means he can run the Labour party. He wants to be Prime Minister less than I do.

Player has no intention of signing an extension but happy to stay and run contract down, leaving club not much of an option but to sell to highest bidder but player can make out that honest he would have definitely stayed but the club decided to sell him. I think he might be going to the spiritual home of floodlit dugouts.

Jesus Christ. We've got another five weeks of this.

Seems unlikely scenario - if Forster ends up at, say, Pep's Man City why would they want his personal goalkeeping coach as well? I reckon other football clubs have their own perfectly adequate coaching set up. Following FF around is an unlikely option for DW, he'll have to just get on with coaching the next FF for us.

Sometimes you can be very subtle, TDD.

Remind me, when were we in League 2?

I can't remember exactly when Rasiak was sold but Surman and Mcgoldrick were definitely sold when we were in administration to pay off debt and stop us going pop not as the means for some transfer market wheeler dealering spree. We also signed plenty of players on high wages like Waigo, Hammond, Jaidi plus keeping players like Kelvin. Talk about rewriting history. So, It's all a bit odd we venerate Leibherr and Cortese when it turns out they did nothing for except spend the funds off the back of selling David McGoldrick. I'd like to think they did more than that but maybe not, turms out we were just Carlisle United with a player or two to sell.

The "something must be done" routine only works when Saints are the helpless victim of the evil rich clubs. Well we've been awfully lucky to bankroll/steamroll our way through two divisions and establish ourselves in the Premier League. We've been lucky to have bankrolled a posh set of training facilities - maybe "something should be done" about that - shouldn't we be forced to share them with other clubs who aren't so lucky to own the steamroller what we got? The sad thing is those in charge of the game are happy to let this happen. I hope someone clamps down on Southampton FC and no mistake.

Who did we sell for twice the value that we bought? And yeah, all league one teams are buying a "couple of £1m players" all the time aren't they?
