Lee On Solent Saint

They could in theory have a unhappy player on their hands if that was the case. I suppose if he was desperate to come here, he could go down the moody player route, we've had plenty of experience with that in the past.

If Blackmore is alluding that we will keep the money and move for him again in the winter window, that would be crazy. PSV have dicked us around on this, I wouldn't waste another minute on it.

To be fair, took his goal well yesterday, but like you say, I don't think he is any different to Armstrong.

I'd hoped we would have moved on as soon as their team was announced for the game they played yesterday. Obvious with him playing he wasn't going anywhere.

Anyone else feel we need to walk away from this one?

Glad I'm mot the only one "WFH" tomorrow!

Got a massive feeling that PSV are dicking us around

Just a bit odd that he is playing this evening. Surely if we are close to a deal all parties wouldn't want anything to jeopardise the deal. Am torn between thinking he's a good guy for not throwing his toys out of the pram, or thinking why the he'll isn't he in Southampton already?

I think they are going to sell. Just waiting until the last minute to see if anyone else bids.

Agreed. I was at the GnR concert at Spurs in July. It was so civilised I thought it was a garden party at Buckingham Palace

Is that the sound of your bus exploding!!

One of my favourite players from the last six or seven years. Absolutely agree with all the sentiments about him. My lad met him at a Totton game towards the end of last season, he was really happy to have photos taken and chat to him about football. In this day of egos in football, he really made time for the fans. Feels like the end of an era in my Saints supporting cycle.

He is probably the sort of player who would benefit from an extended run in the first team. Not really sure he has had that much of a consecutive run. He might get that if Oriel moves on, as we might need to rotate more with Lavia.

Pretty good going. I've been in Lee for about three years now and have not come across another Saints fan as yet. Can't even honestly say there is an abundance of the blue few either. Five minutes down the road in Gosport, it's a different matter though!

Wholeheartedly agree. One of my favourite players over the last few years. We have had terrific value from him since his move.

Oppps! Just re-read that again!

Forest are just getting ridiculous now. Be Ross Barkley next.

Kinda does beg the question who is realistically going to go there, with what is essentially a Championship squad. Less than three days until the window shuts as well. I don't think there are as an attractive proposition as they think they are.

Says Gary O' Neil and Shaun Cooper are in temporary charge. Assume it's those two ex Pompey players?

I may be old fashioned, but I don't go to watch Saints to be surrounded by opposing fans at a home game.

And relatively cheap

Shit! Thought it was Friday for some reason! Oh well, can take Thursday off and have Friday to get over the disappointment of no signings!

Anyone else taking Friday off to be glued to Sky Sports waiting for the window to slam shut?!
