Surprised to see Guly in instead of Punch or Chappers. But then he was decent on the right side earlier in the season. Thought Reeves might have got a spot on the bench. Good strong side though! 3-0 COYRs.

Who was that walking back to the dugout with the Brum manager? Looked like a proper mong!

Yep. He's more powerful and dynamic; think he could make a difference.

Why not put Sharp in from the start? He knows the league, he's match fit, and he's scoring more than Connolly. Will be very disappointed if we don't start Sharp. Even more so if Lee isn't in the squad.

+1 and then some. Awful.

First Blood

On Golden Pond

Not heard DC mentioned much. Get Lee on at half time.

The Long Good Friday (yes, it took a while yesterday; but is was worth it). The Expendables Black Rain

He's a Ninja!

So do we know where he is right now? Presumably in a black Merc on the way down the M3. Why isn't someone giving us minute by minute updates ffs? 'Leewatch, Live' we need to make it happen.

A distinct possibility. I've felt for a while that we will be back in with a last day offer for Hooper: Sharp may be a tool to push things along quicker.

No leadership on the pitch. Where has the bottle gone?

Yep. I reckon we will see late (i.e. last day) activity on the striker front. Reckon we'll see Puncheon as makeweight in any deal. We've clearly got the money and the appetite to spend it: though I don't think we are genuinely desparate too. Going to be fun watching the last day rumours.

Let's all hide......

This is my concern, given that we have been linked with other big strikers too (that Roma fella on loan?) Wonder if a big offer for a striker unproven in the prem would tempt us; and a big signing on fee and guaranteed prem football would tempt Rickie. Bloody hope not!!

Wow. That interview says a lot. NA clearly wants Hooper and we are obviously going back for him. Plus another signing for th is week nearly done. We could do this you know....

Go on then, give us a clue! (Or a PM)

Which immediately made me think we would use him as a makeweight somewhere. He would be good enough for the SPL......

But which Sea? North?

The Saints are turning Japanese Now we've signed Tadanari Lee I really think so.... [video=youtube;gEmJ-VWPDM4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=gEmJ-VWPDM4

That I like.

Agree. When things are going bad, they often seem to go worse! Reckon the next few weeks will see us sign a few, have another dodgy performance (and probably lose top spot), then we'll push on and finish Champions. Going to be a rollercoaster.

'We don't get too high when we win, we don't get too low when we lose'. Annoyed we lost, but really - what was the likelihood we would go the full season unbeaten at home? - And we all would have taken this start to the season back in August! Hopefully this will be our new Walsall - a long run of wins will start now! Oh yeah, there's the transfer window too. Reckon we might be quite attractive to players looking to move...... WIFM.

Why would we admit to not chasing Sharp & Maynard? Wouldn't it be better to no comment as usual, and so help keep our real targets hidden?
