Aren’t Leicester going to have to cash in on a lot of players? Aren’t they also awaiting a points deduction? Surely the only selling point as a club is that they were recently a Premier League club?

Random Times you’ve bumped into a Footballer
Willo of Whiteley replied to Turkish's topic in The Saints
Met Harry Redknapp when he was our manager. Shook his hand and had a faint smell on my hands the entire time, as I’ve got older I’ve realised the smell was that of someone who was holding cash. -
Got to be KWP surely, then signing permanently and making 200 appearances? Saganowski got 10 in 13 during his loan spell, but only scored three more times after that. Ryan Fraser, Joe Rothwell, David Brooks and Taylor Harwood-Bellis all contributed during the promotion season two years ago. Michail Antonio before he beefed up even more than he was, he was excellent second half of the JPT season.

Who had $20m sale of Sulemana on their bingo card? 🤣
-
Are we signing a female player? Is that the clue? 😂

Shame about Max Aarons, good player that was linked with a host of bigger clubs in his younger days. Tariq Lamptey would be my next suggestion for that RB position. Surplus to requirements at Brighton, similar mould to Max Aarons. As for the twelve year old article about Norwich signing van Wolfswinkel - lol.

I’d argue no one is watching the Club World Cup 🤣

I actually don’t think Reading’s kit is the worst in the world. I’d rather have that in vertical stripes than the rubbish being rumoured. I thought Palace’s kit from last season was smart. That in red and white would be pretty good.

When I come to power: The Itchen Bridge will be flattened and replaced with a lower, and free to use bridge. The entire waterside up the river will become affordable and nicer apartments, homes, restaurants with scenic walks and open green space in between the water and the stadium. The concourse around the stadium will be widened, Britannia Road moved and larger outdoor areas available. Naturally St Mary’s will be made bigger. 24/7 security so none of the city’s nutters and druggies move in from the city centre. Fast access train exclusive for events with three stops: The docks, St Mary’s Stadium and Southampton Central. My time will come 😇

I’m sure from previous years that which is seen on Far Eastern websites isn’t far from the finished product.

If that is it, then that is horrific
-
If we sign Begovic at least we stop him scoring against us 🤣
-
Didn’t Jason Euell say he enjoyed his time here? May as well chuck his name in with Danny Ings, JWP etc 😂
-
Quincy Promes has been extradited back to the Netherlands to serve his seven year sentence. I think this deal might be off. 😅
-
I see all the ITK’s on social media have deleted the “the kits being released today” posts 😂

I think we’re more attractive a proposition than some think. Go back a couple of months I’d say we looked pretty horrific, but we’ve got in a new technical director that is making moves, an owner acknowledging mistakes and stating future plans, new manager in ahead of the supposed title challengers etc.
-
You clearly missed where it says “yes it’s a loss” - but to make that kind of money back after being piss poor is quite something. I think most would agree they’d have taken a tenner for them. 🙄🤦🏻♂️

Signings-wise: Borja Sainz - I just can’t see Jorwich selling to a league rival, also surely he is destined for better things? I’m hoping Spors has eyed up Evan Ferguson, ambitious but I also think could be a realistic target. We are a big fish in the division this season, I think we’ll be a more attractive proposition as the window goes on.

If we got £8m for Onuachu and £17m for Sulemana after these last few years, then as much as I hate to say it but Rasmus should get freedom of the city. Absolutely ludicrous business to receive that. (Yes it’s a loos on what we paid but they’ve been terrible acquisitions). 🤣 I don’t think they’ll be many more outgoings for a few more weeks, unless it’s your generic loan sales to Goztepe etc. I can see Juan and Matsuki heading back out there.

Dragan Solak interviews with BBC and Daily Echo
Willo of Whiteley replied to CSA96's topic in The Saints
In MLG’s eyes Sport Republic have done no wrong and can do no wrong. 😂 Some of the “healthy debates” I’ve seen on social media have been very amusing. Back on topic, as said before Dragan Solak has said all the right things that will get us onside and excited, it’s generic PR. There isn’t really anything gospel in what he said, it’s a case of trust. Given he’s resumed control and moved people around and made the right people accountable in the right place you could say he’s learned from failings. The bit I would er caution to is comments about large scale investment or expansion. Equally it’s very easy for him to say”I don’t like to say things because I’m superstitious” if you’ve got no real plan or intentions. It’s swings and roundabouts, I’m more encouraged, but certainly won’t be shelling out on anything until there’s some form of evidence on improvement on or off the field. I’m not made of money. 😂 -

Reads well, but it’s all talk until anything comes to fruition. Regarding the stadium we’ve heard it all before, they’ll be some on here who will lap it up, and they’ll be some who are more realistic about how quickly this stuff takes. This isn’t an overnight thing. Reading the article he comes across well but one step at a time. Manager early - tick Hes now said about potential signings - pressure on to get them right Rest of the transfer window - pending -
Some still think he’s the messiah 🤣

Leicester don’t have enough to shift Ruud van Nistelrooy let alone get someone else in too.

I think this seasons kit is going to look horrific. Take out the nostalgia for a second, every mock up that we’ve seen so far has been pretty dire.
