Ivan Katalinic's 'tache

I'm guessing your son has had a chat with the boy Howard?

Are you going to the driving range with him today or is he busy elsewhere doing something else contracty-like?

Ah, but were you also going to say that if we do sign him, I hope we haven't sold our souls and promised them to a deal on Oxo in the summer as payback?!?!?

They've signed 2 defenders in the last 2 days: Rob Jones from Scunny and Danny Batth from Wolves. Hopefully, NA will at least know what weaknesses Jones has!

In which case we must definitely be signing Frimpong as he was he was the other player linked earlier this week and NA didn't mention him.

True. Look at Preston refusing to sell/loan Paul Hayes to Derby because they were in and around them in the table. Same would be true of the Posh unless we'd paid over the odds.

Very true. In the nicest possible way, I hope your session at the driving range is cancelled tomorrow!!

David Connolly day? All go in bandages.

I hope this happens! Although, if we could guarantee that we'd be automatically promoted and he joined us instead, in the summer, I'd settle for that...

Jordan Sibley - he know nothing (about signing Howard).

He did say he was going into battle. Two whole days negotiations would constitute a battle!!

Ok, so not signed yet. But is he any closer to signing?!

Maybe but there has to come a point where the positives in bringing someone in outweigh annoyance at not being the first to say it! Howard would definitely improve us so maybe NC needs to rise above the Echo's oneupmanship.

http://www.saints.co.uk/ This lot would do!!

Pretty sure it's next Thursday 24th. Maybe CMS is in a hurry to leave?!!

Cheers for the update! Might be a silly question, but why isn't Howard training with Reading this morning? Could it be because he's anticipating having to travel somewhere in the near future?!

I checked this thread 10 mins ago and there's been no confirmation of his signing since? WTF is going on? Adkins out.

Peterborough play Huddersfield soon. Something's gotta give!!

Any more on Brian Howard anyone? What's he going to think of us if we can't even keep his thread on topic?

I've no idea whether I can get PMs so you'd better send me one so I can find out. Thanks.

So it wasn't a no then?

Must be Howard. I believe there's a rule in Saints constitution that says that whilst we're outside of the top flight we must have a player on loan from Reading. He'd be the fourth in recent times after Pearce, Antonio and Bignall wouldn't he? Isn't it nice when a bigger club helps us littl'uns out?

I think the best thing would be to win the game and then make no big deal out if it in the press, on their forums etc. Would show them it's just another game won and that it was no special than beating Yeovil, Swindon et al.

Let's hope he doesn't have to change it RadhiJaidiSentOff after tomorrow!
