Ivan Katalinic's 'tache

"Control the controllables ref FFS...!"

Quicker than Jonno quick, me...

Suggested this a while back: Jonno Forte's Barbadan They say he's ****ing fast And if he races Usain Bolt He'll kick his ****ing a*se!

Davis Calderon Greer Fonte Harding Lallana Oxo Bennett Pilkington Mackail-Smith BWP

Blimey! Didn't see that coming. Well done to those Saints concerned - thought Lallana & Fonte plus maybe Oxo. Kelv & Harding too - top stuff. Guess the players from other teams rate some of our players better than our own fans...

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/MatchReport/0,,10280~53022,00.html OS has slaughtered Dale Stephens! "Dale Stale Stephens" - bit harsh when he's only just arrived...

Congrats to the Albion definitely. Most consistent team this season and tremendous resolve not to have a dip in form all season. I just hope we can emulate them and go up automatically too!

I expect the shareholder loan to be from Markus Liebherr if the accounts are to the end of June. The payback in 5 years fits in with comment about being a self sufficient Premier League side in 5 years - kind of explains why we need to be quite rigid with the 5 year plan.

He stands at nearly 6 foot 3 Jaidi, He once played in the Premier League Jaidi, He scores a goal and plays the fool, He wears the shirt of Jason Euell, Radhi Jaidi Southampton's clean **** machine!! This was my bastardised version of Rickie's song when he scored against Charlton 2 weeks ago such was my joy...

Yes, sorry, the thread is called Stephens to Southampton. Pretty crucial piece of missed info from myself there...

From a poster on PASOTI.co.uk... Might have answered my own question there.

Still nowt on the OS?! Surely the Echo couldn't get it wrong? Hope we haven't been pipped at the post by one of the Premier League vultures?!

Came on at a really tricky time and tried to play simple passes and make himself available when others had the ball. Gave us a bit more composure really; probably found it tricky because of the situation we were in. Would be interesting to see him start alongside Deano when we're not chasing the game.

I'm sure Ian Harte was LB in the team of the year last year; I believe it was just Andy Scott's selling patois that told us Dickson was the best LB in the division...

JPT final. Spent my whole life waiting for Saints to win a Cup (only 2 when we won the FA Cup) and to do it at Wembley, so easily, was a dream. Don't care if it's only a tinpot cup, it was the first time I was there to see my team lift silverware.

Sergei Gotsmanov. Spent all summer laughing at my Brighton supporting mates because we'd signed him, after he'd had a successful loan spell there, and then he turned out to be toilet.

Pele. Never been a good player by that name and never will be.

Interesting conundrum for Saints. Do we spend money on Jack Stephens, which could help Argyle through to the season's end, or do we not sign him now (& try to sign him as a free agent if they went bust) which would also enhance our auto promotion prospects???

Which one?! Too many of 'em about now!

Why would a club in big trouble be trying to spend £125k on a 17 year old apprentice from Plymouth??? Or maybe we've had to get rid of all of our apprentices to sign him? Whatever, sack the board etc etc

Would explain his slightly below par performances recently, if so.

A real bonus at the moment. It'll be interesting if that remains the policy if we ever get back to the Prem...

My son is nearly 5 and is about to break into double figures gameswise. Loves going, knows most of the (clean) songs and I'd agree with the fella who said that it's the atmosphere which hooks them (that and Jaidi's goal celebrations in recent games).

Good signing hopefully, promising player scouted by Prem clubs. Isn't there a rule which says loan deals can be made permanent at any time during the course of the loan? Might explain the bit about us "making an offer" to Oldham (although that could just as easily be us agreeing and paying a loan fee)?

Post from this Oldham forum about Stephens: http://www.oafc.co.uk/ Apparently didn't train today but might be a problem with his medical. Could be that news is imminent or this is total BS!
