And why does that require prior knowledge of his signing?

Why would someone that works on the till in the club shop be kept informed of player transfers?

Media sources say he is at WBA.

So Gareth Bale being valued at £10m in 2008, £3m in 2009/10 and £40m in 2011 doesn't count as a "stall" in your eyes? That is not an upper curve on that valuation graph throughout his career. It is a significant drop and then rise i.e. he stalled from 2008 to 2010 due to lack of games!

See post #901

Nottingham Forest. For a reported £3m in the 2009/10 season. Saints sold him in 2007 for £10m and in 2011 he is valued at £40m by some in the press. So I think that counts as a stall in the middle years... The Chamberlain's should take not of this.

Name some top current players in the world game that didn't get game time in their teenage years, either on loan or with their own club. You will find the majority played games. No matter what Bale and Walcott did, coaching they had etc etc they would always have come good in the end. However both their career's stalled after their moves. It took them a long time to get going again. As highlighted by Spurs nearly selling Bale on the cheap to a Championship team as recently as 2009.

It took him a long time to become a regular at Arsenal. Had he stayed and Saints he would have had regular games. Yes, he is a regular for England and Arsenal now, but it is 5 years later. That doesn't mean his career didn't stall when he first moved. Same applies to Gareth Bale, Spurs took ages to realise he was class, they very nearly sold him to Nottingham Forest.

Lots of people only naming 5 subs, it is 7 subs in the League Cup.

In the Football League yes, it was only used for two years.

Jeremy Wilson has said similar before. Boy who cried wolf too many times...

He is also wearing the same Saints tie as Adkins and Sibley do. He is just a club official, not a potential signing.

Unlikely he got from Burnley to Southampton in the hour and a half between the Burnley vs Watford game finishing at 5pm and that photo being taken at 6:30pm. And then decided to put on a suit and Saints tie like all behind scenes staff wear. He is most likely someone behind the scenes in Cortese's team.

Barnsley Player seems to do 90 minutes videos of every game, so come next Sunday we should be able to watch the match in full using our Saints Player logins. Their away game against Nottingham Forest was uploaded today in full as have been their pre-season games.

That is what I thought. Rodriguez makes sense as a signing, not sure we need Fox though.

Journalist: "The last thing you want on the day of the game is speculation about some of your players. Jay (Rodriguez) and Danny Fox linked to Southampton this morning." Eddie Howe: "Yeah, I heard on that. But I don't know anything about it. So... (long pause from Eddie and an "interesting" look) its not ideal."

Useless trivia = She went to Millbrook School.

The opening post doesn't seem to be in English, as I have no idea what you are saying.

11 years and counting so far...

Yes, he went of with an injured left ankle after a challenge in the West Brom friendly.

That doesn't make sense. If Saints had signed him in the summer, he wouldn't have played Brighton today and wouldn't have that injury.

Why would they inform those that "help with the website", the details of the club's transfer strategy? Does that not ring alarm bells that it may be ********? They will be telling the tea lady at the academy how much they are selling Fabregas for next...

If they were in a strong financial position they would have held out for more than £3m for Eagles and Mears, Premier League club bidding or not.

Do you have an example of a question about Saints I have failed to answer?
