saints to win race to sign Jamie Vardy
Matthew Le God replied to alderholt saints's topic in The Saints
Doesn't normally take them to reach the age of 25 before moving into league football though. -
I doubt Saints would offer a player that isn't theirs for Hooper. Now that would be daft!

The 5th Round Draw - Bolton at home (if we beat Millwall!)
Matthew Le God replied to Colinjb's topic in The Saints
I don't understand why people want tricky home or away games. I want Saints to draw the poorest team possible at St Mary's. As Championship sides, Millwall and Cardiff have both made the cup final in recent years, no reason why Saints couldn't do the same. Aren't two trips to Wembley for the semis and final better than a trip to see Saints get beaten at the Emirates, White Hart Lane, Anfield etc? -
That doesn't mean he won't come by the deadline.

Have you seen the Norwich and Swansea squads?

It is hardly an original tune for a chant. Man Utd certainly aren't the first to use it.

I bet it is one of these... The must have watch at my school in the mid 90's.

Three great minds think alike at 9.00PM.

Not many teams left in the cup, and if the team(s) that want to see him play aren't involved anymore then why does it matter if he is cup tied?
-
Maybe clubs wanted to see him in action given his injury problems and recent return, before making a decision on a loan.

That doesn't counter the points I made. Very few clubs in England would get 21k when you take into account all the factors I listed. Take away a number of those factors and you get an attendance like the all time club record of 32,152 Saints had in October last year.
-
21,014 an embarrassment? For a fixture... - In the second tier against a team in 15th place - On a week night in January - With only 592 away fans - Live on TV - Little interest from business community to fill corporate seats for a game like this Not many teams in England would manage that. In October 2011 Saints played West Ham, 1st vs 2nd, on a weeknight, not on TV, with a large away following and it was an all time club record attendance of 32,152.

Neither. 11pm Tuesday 31st January -
He played in one qualifying game vs Braga (admittedly he scored in it) and not in any group stage games. He has two goals in Europa League games vs Udinese and Rennes.

The questions were from BBC Radio Solent's Adam Blackmore. -
Did I say it was enough? I was just pointing out to Dune a few things that can't really be argued with as are factually correct and go against what he said. In any case to add to Lee, Puncheon and Falque you can look at Lambert's return from suspension, plus Lallana, Fonte, Barnard and Chaplow's imminent return.
-
His loan was due to end in early January. If he hadn't signed he would have gone back to Celtic and Saints wouldn't have had him for the rest of the season. So yes, signing him permanently was strengthening the squad for the remainder of the season and indeed the rest of his contract.
-
Still counts as strengthening in the period after the last loan window closed in late November. Had he not signed he would have left by now when his loan finished.

- Guly is the Championship's 4th top scorer. - Saints are the Championship's top scorers. - Saints have just signed a Japanese international striker. - Saints have made a multi million pound bid for another striker and there is still 4 days left to sign players. Why do you think Saints have't strengthened this window? They have signed 3 players (Hooiveld, Falque and Lee), not sold any important players, made large bids for other players and have Jason Puncheon back available for selection. Plus as people keep telling you, there are four days left of the window and also players returning from injury and suspension.
-
Saints have signed Hooiveld, Lee and Falque this window and not sold any important players, that is a lot more than most other Championship clubs. They also have had confirmed multi million pound bids for other players and there is still over four days left of the window. My point still remains valid, as you said "we haven't pushed on from the days of Marcus Liebherr", when in reality Saints are now 42 places higher in the league than on the day Markus died!
-
Have you not seen the league table? Saints are currently 22nd in England, having been 68th when Liebherr bought the club and 64th on the day he died.
