@officialsaints: Saints u-18's (4-3-3 from) Johns; Young, Mugabi, Turnbull, O'Sullivan; Bowman, McCarthy, Gape; Aaron Ward-Prowse, Read, Rowe.
No wards prowse for the first team. Maybe Corby Moore, Chambers, Stephens all gone with 1st team?
I personally, cannot see Rhodes leaving Huddersfield until atleast the summer. If he wanted to leave, I think he would have been off by now. More likely is he'll wait til the summer, get Huddersfield promoted, then re-assess in the summer when he knows which club will be where.
That report is just a copied report from the Mirror.
"CHAMPIONSHIP leaders Southampton are set to test Celtic's resolve by upping their bid for Gary Hooper to £6m. Saints boss Nigel Adkins signed the striker when he was boss of S****horpe and reckons the frontman could fire his new side to the Premier League. (Daily Mirror)"
Yer, but if we did bid for Maynard, Sharp, Rodriguez & Sordell in the summer then there must be money available and the intent is there for a decent striker. Also from Lennons comments it does sound like we put in a bid for Hooper and they are trying to drive the price up, but I think if we want him enough we'll get him.
If people are saying though, that the Chamberlain money is paying for the players we bought in the summer + Lee + Hooiveld, then surely there must be some more money in the kitty. I very much doubt we were going into this season with a transfer budget of £0 and I very much doubt Cork, Fox, De Ridder, Lee, Hooiveld between them cost £12-£15m?
Cork - £750k?
De Ridder £500k?
Fox £1.8m
Hooiveld £1.2m?
Lee £500k?
Had a great time there a few years ago the day we went down. After all the mess that had preceded it for a few years and all the ifs, whys & hows, we were finally free just to go and enjoy a game, didn't stop singing all game, joined in with the Forest fans as well. They all turned to us and applauded us all at the end as well.
