SW5 SAINT

Someone on SSN called it the Hampshire Derby, yesterday or the day before....

Yes we should embrace the rivalry with Bournemouth. Any one trying to hang to the rivalry with poopey, is a bit like ManU acknowledging a rivalry with Accrington Stanley...........

Bite their arm of more like.....

I think we all felt exactly like Jeff did. Anyway we did get to see the scarf even if it wasn't a win it felt like one......

Jeff Selling saying on Gillette Soccer Saturday, that he will wear his Hartlepool scarf next time they win. Here's hoping we see it today........

Sounds like he's running his eye over next seasons opposition.........

[quote They should have bought West Ham! Lol...Oh I wish.....

We could also not bring him back, and still have a forward line that doesn't score for toffee. He is probably just the sort of striker we would be looking to sign in January anyway, if he wasn't ours already.

I'd bite their arm of for £15m for a 33 ear old, who doesn't want to be here........Means a change from the usual selling to cheaply.

They just showed it on MOTD......

Probably doing him a favour by making sure he is not cup tied, if wants to go to ManU!

I tend to agree we are not quite as astute as some think with regard to our selling policy. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we got less for Wanyama than we paid for him, Clyne and Mane were both worth a lot more than what we actually got from Liverpool. The £15m for Pelle was the only one we got far more for than he was probably worth - this largely due to the collapse of the pound against the dollar, between agreeing the fee( in dollars) for him and the transfer actually going through.

A minnow you want - pompey are already out, out of all cups by November......

I think we should be looking at another striker in Jan, and a replacement for Fonte and Romeu who are likely to leave either in Jan or the summer.

Unless their was a low release clause in the initial five year contract, it would be plain stupid to insert one in the six year contract, which was drawn up with four years of the initial contract still to run. But Saints never surprise me with contract cock ups. Who knows in six years time, 50m might be the average price of a run of the mill EPL player..........

I see poopey are at least in one top twenty, that of teams with the worst fans. That's some going for a team from the depths of league 2.

Lol.........

Are you certain of that? I don't remember hearing anything about sell on clauses........

He won't want to leave Jordan Henderson......

2-0 to Stevenage now -

Well, I suppose it is after all a business first and foremost. What is it these Chinese "investors" hope to get out of it , apart from money? That's what investors usually hope for.

How is it possible to be more massiver than pompey?

The picture makes it look like a seaside fishing village - which maybe it is.......

The model would appear to be, act as a nursery club for the likes of Liverpool, ManU, spurs etc......

With the all the coverage we have had in the last few years about the success of our system, I can't believe that all the other top clubs haven't now copied our formula for success. Managing to stay ahead of the game will be the problem now.
