This is a "friend of a friend" rumour so might be BS but I thought I'd post it to see if any one else had heard the same. Saints are interested in Carlos Edwards (Ipswich) possibly season loan. Can't say I've ever noticed him before playing against us. As I said probably BS
I remember he scored a great goal against Leeds at the Dell, 81 ish? He must have beat at least 4 of their defenders before scoring at the Archers Rd end. I think we won 4-0 that day. I've never seen any footage of it. He would have definately played many times for England if it wasn't for the injury.
Your'e right, it's Otsemebor who was released to sign for us, although Antonio's contract with Reading ends this summer so he is in a similar situation to our out of contract players. I think he'll be offered a one year deal.
The "Lets move the away fans" idea won't help with the planning. If they go ahead with that idea there will be alot of work involved with swapping seats etc. This will have to factored in to any schedule. I'd imagine we'll hear something shortly after the final tickets have all been allocated. my guess is that A) The away fans will remain where they are for next season B) season Ticket prices remain unchanged
As I understand it the ground and the club are owned seperately by Chanari? If he has no interest in owning a football club then liquidation may suit him? What has he got to lose.
