Oi...I floated that on here yesterday...(and was promptly ignored) ;-)

Is paul ince confused enough yet? Great move by the club to generate a smokescreen of confusion on here....or so it would seem...

I've heard that Skacel will be his first signing when he takes the Palace job

http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?27547-Saints-vs-Charlton-re-arranged-date Keep up.... ;-)

So do I.....and if he's as much in the dark as I am after reading this forum then mission accomplished!

And time travellers

I don't. Was just throwing a possible scenario into the auditorium to promote healthy debate :-)

This season or next? We're gonna need to bolster the squad next season if we get promoted so if Cortese/Adkins believes someone of Austin's calibre CDAJFU next season then best snap him up now than wait for a bun fight in the summer. Perhaps.

The inconvenient truth for socialists.... ;-)

Good to see bankers paying more money back to the Exchequer. The more they get paid the quicker the country recoups Labour's debt. Win win.

I've just checked my SaintsWeb Forum edition of Top Trumps and "spoken to him" definately beats "heard from people close(ish)" by some margin Now, had it been 'wing span' things would have been a lot tighter....

Close....

If he means a higher level "next season" rather than "the rest of this season" then we're still in the frame

World Cup winners: Brazil: 5 Italy: 4 Germany: 3 Uruguay: 2 Argentina: 2 England: 1 France: 1 Spain: 1 Who would you rather be in the next World Cup? Uruguay or Spain? Case closed.

Problem easily solved if Cortese sells a blade of St mary's grass for £50million to one of his Swiss banker pals and then buys it back again for (coincidently) the same price sometime later..... ;-) That's assuming the rules are just based around turnover rather than profit margins?

Is there an echo in here?

Was just thinking the same. If Bournemouth fail to win tomorrow it gives us the opportunity to create a gap bigger than one defeat. Once we've got that cushion I can see us pulling away quite quickly as knowing they can't be caught even if we lose a game will give the players a further incentive to blow caution to the wind. Not that we're starting to count chickens of course...

Agree. It's got 0-0 written all over it...

Via some hint dropping and reading-between-the-lines on the 'back from the Oldham game' thread, anyone know if Adam is actually injured or not?

If we were seriously interested in acquiring new players, wouldn't it have made more sense to have done the "negotiations" part in Nov/Dec so that we could hit the ground running on the "acquiring" part as early as possible in January? Yours Devil's Advocately...

Well, that's what happens when you play your star player in a meaningless cup tie 72 hours before a crucial league game....

Skacel

Don't tell me, Adkins has been offered the Liverpool job....?

And, Dune, when you start said thread, don't forget to mention in passing that Labour did sod all about restraining bank bonuses on their watch. Probably worth slipping Fred the Shred's knighthood into the conversation while you're there. Oh, and final challenge: you're not allowed to use the words: Labour, hypocrites and opportunist in the same sentence. Good luck... ;-)

Hi Richard - any updates per chance? cheers
