Not that we could get half of them but... Marlon Broomes henri Camara David Connolly Carl Cort Keith Gillespie Danny Granville Dietmar Hamann Matthew Holland Rahdi Jaidi Lauren Glen Little Michael Mifsud danny Mills Noe Pamarot John Oster Antoine Sibierski Sam Sodje Paul Terry (johns Brother) Jerome Thomas Andy Van Der Meyde Nicky weaver Everyones favourite - Jermain Wright!

It makes sense looking at free agents, there are PLENTY of quailty players availble that are more than good enough for the championship... let alone league 1! Why spend money when you can get them in for free.... I have no doubt that IF we need to spend money we will do. There's a difference between signing players on free just for the sake of it, or signing players on free who will improve the squad.

Can we make a song up with the words "and he hates arsene wenger" in them please!!

Completely agree best FA Cup final (in terms of football) I have seen

Absoultely delighted with Pardew!!!!! Forget Charlton and this is a very good young english manager who has proved he can get success at both West Ham & Reading showing real passion along the way.... PASION

Worst post ever!!! Its about celebrating having a club to support, I was expecting a great atmosphere full of celebration because we've finally turned a corner, but mourons still seem intent of continuing this negative spin. who cares if we get hammered 23-0! The club is in the stongest posistion off the field it has been in years!

I think one day BWP will be a good striker... one day...

I would be gutted if pompey collapsed, yes I want them to be below us... but who would we gloat too if they werent there. I cant believe after what we've just been through, that people are wishing it on others.... shocking

Just fantastic news... KD deserves a HUGE HUGE cheer at the Ajax game...

Take over or no take over I'd have been there.... I'll be the one handing out the swiss rolls at half time!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Cant wait to read some offcial statements from the club about structure etc now.... "We've got a billionare, we've got a billionare, We've got a billionare!!!"

hahaha "Wotte you talking about willis"

I have EVERY respect for Dave Jones as was really sad to see him leave, but at the time Lowe really had no option other than to put him on leave. I'd love him to go on and get success, I'd love to see him back at Saints 1 day too

I'm pretty sure this statement is purely to protect ego's. The football leagues statement highlights the fact the only stumbling block was proof of funds... Pinnacle then come back with a statement that basically reads "ohhhh ohhhh really, funds the only issue... well we might take another look then" Knowing full well that they dont have the funds to complete. This, I suspect, is the last you will hear of Pinnacle

Exclusivity meant that only Pinncle could complete the deal within that 21 day period, it DID NOT stop Fry from talking to other interested partys

Not true, I dont see Lee todd, olivier bernard, or Stig Johansen in that line up... PS Stig Johansen was actually amazing in CM 97/98 I remember getting his value to a good 10 million once!

Happy with that, think he should be given the chance seeing as he has showed continual commitment to the club in a time when others would have fled.

I have no idea who is fit and who isnt but Forecast James - Perry - Thomas - Mills Lallana - Gillett - Schneiderlin - Holmes Rasiak - McLaggon

Sad to see him go, Surman was a good professional and a Southampton fan, his form let him down a bit last season but I'm sure he'd have been a vital part of the team this season... had he stayed. I think he'll struggle in the prem, and is going to wolves purely as a squad player. I'd be surprised if he started more than 10 games, all the same... best of luck to him.... we need the money

completely unacceptable as far as I am concerned... why should the staff work for nothing....

Spot on

Tottally agree mate, I wanted the deal done 3 weeks ago, I'm not ITK just got a feeling about Friday thats all... but like you I hate the fact its rolling on & on... but if there was a sweepstake, I'd pick this Friday

The issues that are preventing Pinnacle taking over are with the FL so it would be pointless for Fry to act as a middle man between Pinnacle & the FL. He's out seeking further buyers that could step up should Pinnacles bid collapse... because thats what he's supposed to do. The fact that fry is out talking with other consortuims has nothing to do with Pinnacles bid

Im as frustrated as any mate, I really am. I just have a good feeling about this friday so here's hoping :-)

Without knowing any facts I wouldn’t know, but any animosity towards a consortium trying to save our football club (succeed or fail) is grossly misdirected IMHO
