It was fairly obvious from the start of the window that in our predicament we would not be making any permanent signings. Due to a combination of factors of a lack of players wanting to join us (partly due to uncertainty about who the manager would be), Saints not wanting to be fleeced by selling clubs knowing we have cash, and Saints being unwilling to commit to lengthy expensive contracts given our likely relegation. It will be two or three loan signings at most. To expect any more than this is highly unrealistic.

Redmond is deceptively slow.

He’s just had a £9 million payoff from Everton. He isn’t exactly going to be losing sleep if he starts his next job badly.

Allardyce’s feat in keeping Sunderland up is a big tick on his CV when you consider where they are now with much the same team.

Thanks a lot!!

I’ve set up a 48-hour trial of Flawless. How do you view streams on an iPad????

It is currently showing on channel Sport Klub 5.

It works now!!

Nope, I can't get it to work....

Ah, think it is "imwithmania", but it doesn't look like it will be active before 11am.....

Does anybody know the new code for the temporary Sports Mania membership renewal?

+1.

I would suggest that they have lost the black box.

HCDAJFU. Properly deceptive cheat as well, he would make us a bit nastier to play against. No bad thing. Think he's off to Zenit though.

Seriously, two large companies using the Comical Ali of football message boards for an insight into football. I've heard it all now. Even funnier than Rod Stewart doing the Scottish Cup draw on Sunday.

I bet you do great Powerpoint presentations.

I think Ulloa CDAJFU actually.

Agreed. Most players have never been regular match-attending fans, mainly as they have been playing 3 or 4 games a week from a fairly young age, so they can't relate to what fans go through to go to games (including the whole charade of trying to get tickets in the first place...). I think that many players think of fans in a similar way to how they view the press, ie a necessary evil.

I booed. And was utterly bemused by those who clapped them off. Though McQueen deserved applause. Ironic that he was the one apologising to the fans in the interview after the game.

Hi there, is this still available?

Just got an 8-hour train to Paris from Garibaldi Station, and have a flight from Charles de Gaulle Airport to City Airport. Cost me an extra £250 to book it, but have to be back in England today. Bunch of arse. Particularly as the flights from Milan to Gatwick may well be fine, but I couldn't chance it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just arrived at Linate and asked a girl working in a money exchange desk if she knew any update. She said that all she knew at the moment was flights in Sardinia are definitely affected on Friday. Which seems a bit random.

Why are they not putting them on sale to members? They said there would be an announcement if any tickets were left unsold on Friday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had a brilliant time. Tel Aviv was great with beautiful beaches. The ground was a mix of Bucharest's in the middle of nowhere-ness and Midtyjlland's newness. And pretty noisy without being threatening; their fans in the corner applauded us at the end, and were pretty friendly outside the ground. Arnhem just about remains my favourite away trip, partly as we won and partly because of student night after the game. Won't forget some of the sights that night for a long time. Though having not lost in Israel means I returned home with much fonder memories than if we had lost.

Are you still on this forum, FFS? Bore off.
