Ivan Katalinic's 'tache

My sources tell me Adams is very keen to come to Saints but we can only complete the deal if Austin goes, as that way we save a few quid by re-using Charlie's old "CA" training kit. If anyone else leaves instead, we have to start the scouting process from scratch, to find someone else with the same initials.

Alex Crook ‏ @alex_crook 32m32 minutes ago #saintsfc still interested in bringing in Che Adams but at the moment #BCFC not willing to negotiate. That could change between now and 11pm. Stay tuned to @talkSPORT throughout the day for any developments.

Loans or permanently?

Now a game with an edge - the Che Adams derby!

Are they trying to 'out tall' Vestergaard? Who wins the height contest???

Huddersfield have signed Karlan Grant from Charlton. Has done well in League 1 but the Premier League is a large jump. Having said that, Lookman has done ok at Everton...

As Adkins always said, "control the controllables" which we can do by winning tomorrow & creating a bigger gap between us & the bottom 3. Also drags Brighton back into it too.

Of course. It's always the fault of someone who's recently left, at work..

Any hints as to whether this (Che!) is likely to happen Eric?

Should we be concerned or up our bid???

The Telegraph are usually pretty good with Saints stuff so this seems to me like it's probably true.

Or we leak a lower amount so Genk don't think we've more to spend than we have?

Alex Crook saying Portuguese sources saying it's permanent for £17 million. Who to trust???

Sounds like Higuain to Chelsea is imminent. Hopefully, he chips in with a few goals against those around us.

The content on this fine forum or in terms of imminent deals being announced? Have Everton got a spare seat on their coach now Niasse has gone to Cardiff?

Blew another 2 goal lead & got what we deserved. Oh well, a decent potential cup run blown. Need a win against Everton now for this to have been worthwhile. Just a shame it's a home game...

Seems like Bournemouth's imminent signing of Mepham is near enough for even the BBC to have noticed and they credit us with an interest too: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46894058

Not really a defector but Steven Caulker has a new club... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46882017

Linked with Cardiff earlier today. https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2019/cardiff-have-e13m-bonuses-bid-for-mbwana-samatta-rejected-by-genk/

According to calciomercato.com, he's had his medical this morning.

I wonder if our recruitment focus needs to shift away from Italy to other, more successful hunting grounds on the continent: Gabbiadini: hit then miss Lemina: hit and miss Ramirez: hit(ish) then miss Hoedt: complete miss Osvaldo: complete headcase (unfortunately because he did look like he could cut it IMO) In fact the only ones I can think of who came to us from Italy's top flight, who did ok, were both British: Paul Rideout and Joe Jordan (and that goes back 25-30 years). As others have said, thanks for the Cup Final and keeping us up, though, Gabbi and good luck back in Italy.

Quite fancy an Accy Stanley away day. See off FLDC and it'll be the chance to go somewhere I've not been before. And a decent Cup run is on here, too.

Can you provide a timeframe please? Have I got time to pop out to lunch before we announce someone?

This.

Interesting rumour popped up on one of the Fb sites this morning...
