VVD isn't being held to the last day of his contract either. The VVD situation is relatively unique compared to previous departures in that he decided he wanted to leave having just signed a contract extension. (That said, I guess Lallana's situation was fairly similar). Most players who leave for one of the 'top clubs' do so significantly before the end of their contracts and I don't see that changing (if they don't sign an extension) All the VVD situation tells prospective signees is that they shouldn't sign a contract extension unless they want to commit more of their time here. As such, it hasn't damaged our attractiveness to future prospects IMO.

Confirmed

I'm still hoping the attacking player is Luan. Unlikely as it may be.

Written by a publicity shy 'sports writer'....does such a thing actually exist?

Good question. As it happens, the U23's 'staff' page on the OS was updated yesterday. It has Hunter down as 'Technical Director' but Jaidi is still down as 'Assistant Coach'...

You're making me feel very moist sir

Don't waste your 2nd of 3 posts telling us how pointless your 1st post was FFS!

Ah, yes. I'd forgotten about that.

What time? Only 1.5 hours of "tomorrow" remaining...

Wasn't Slattery being touted as the 'next big thing' a couple of years ago? (supposedly fending off interest from Arsenal, for example). Maybe he's gone backwards in his development or perhaps tonight was just a bad day at the office?

So, Saints average age = 19.09, compared to 19.45 for Wolves. Not a lot in it Wolves starting 11: Burgoyne 20 Rainey 20 Breslin 20 Goncalves 19 Johnson 19 Leak 19 Armstrong 19 Herc 18 Collins 20 Wilson 20 Randall 20 p.s. cheers for the match updates Shroppie

Stand down everyone

Keep us posted VFTT

Cheers. Use your last post of the day wisely

So, is he playing for the U23s tonight?

Was it ever officially stated that he was training "alone"? IIRC, all Saints ever said was that he wasn't training with the first team squad. Perhaps he's been training with the U23s all along?

I would venture that those who boo "every" ex-Saints player are very few rather than "many". I would also venture there are more ex-Saints players who don't/wouldn't get booked Vs those who do/would

I'm sensing you're a tad disgruntled?
