So, who to believe? Peach or Grant?
Edit: unless the club have asked Peach to put out that message as they are worried about the deal being hijacked by other clubs putting in a knee jerk counter bid if they get too much whiff of Saints being very close to sealing things? #morethinkingoutloudnonsensefromtrousers
This
edit: he fits the profile of the kind of player we target though.... young, bags of potential, champions league appearances, plenty of 'Under xx' appearances for Spain, hungry , etc.
Maybe we should 'de-risk' the transaction by tabling a two-tier bid. Say, £500k over the asking price for an 'immediate' transfer. Enough to maybe tempt Celtic to put pen to paper straight away, but not an extortionate amount from our perspective in the general scheme of things.
Dunno. Just thinking out loud, as ever.

Clement: "The aim and objective is simple, we want to win and get through. @officialpompey have great support - just like ourselves"
Woah there! What on Earth are you thinking of Clement? No-one's support is as good as Pompey's. No-one's.
So, basically, only those rich enough to keep going to loads of away games get to go to even more away games...
I could fall out of love with this capitalist world we live in. Vote Corbyn and nationalise the game. It's the only way tickets will be distributed in a more socialist fashion!
Can't wait to see some of the exhibits in the Pompey museum...
A replica of the FA Cup which they 'won' with a team they couldn't afford. A plaque listing all the business and charities that got fleeced. A mock up of the hospital that could have been built with the money withheld from HMRC. The Norris goal on repeat to highlight the season that Southampton got promoted to the Premier League and Pompey got relegated to League 1.
I'm sure there are many other events in their glorious history that they'll want to highlight rather than sweep under the carpet...
Any suggestions fellow nutjobs?
Decent performance from Clasie so far. Obviously not 100% match fit hence looking like he's coasting in 2nd or 3rd gear at times. Good DM partnership with Reed too.
