What a load of hyped b*llocks this SSN transfer deadline stuff is.
"BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!! Our sources in Germany tell us....Rafael Van Der Vaart has arrived ahead of his transfer!"
Safe to say there won't be an announcement till morning now?
Hope to god this has gone through when I wake up. Might leave my phone browser on Saintsfc and just hit refresh in the morning.
Gaston, Gaston Ramirez runs down the wing for me, da da da da da...etc (Heartbeat/Maxi Rodriguez chant).
Would also wind the Pool fans up, seeing as they thought he was signing for them.
Why? Yes he was good for us, but when you progress the best thing is to let such players go so they can continue to be successful at the appropriate level. We essentially play with 3 forwards so I don't think we've got too many anyway.
I remember people slating him in his first season for us - 18 years old in a different country playing in a team of sh*t for a nutcase of a manager. I'm so glad he stuck with us, I can't see him ever leaving now in all honesty.
It's a shame that our first home game back had to be against the least glamorous team, but we still should have sold out - and I'm not even one of the people who says we need a new 50,000 seater tomorrow.
Fair enough. How long ago did they send those back? Bit of a shame, I guess they'll cover most of it with netting though which might make it look a bit better.
This springs to mind;

Christ alive guys, I'm trying to keep it on topic is all. Feel free to start a thread in the muppet show where you can use as many insults for me as you like.
