How gormless are their players?

Especially as Austin currently lives in London (I presume). The only team I'd be worried about getting him over us is Spurs, be so much easier for him to go there but I'm fairly confident we can sign him if a deal can be struck with QPR, probably something in the region of £12m.

I suppose it would make sense if he joined us after Newcastle then...

And he might go to Arsenal or something. Either way £12m would seem low for him, no harm with testing the waters though.

Frank Lampard made a living out of deflected shots. Before anyone starts crying I'm not comparing Elia to Lampard. I quite Like Elia and if cheap I'd take him - pretty much what Bexy says.

The whole reason for competing in the league is to finish as high as possible and reap the rewards that brings, one of them is getting in to Europe, if our league place is hindered due to being in Europe then so be it. I prefer to come 7th, get in to Europe and the following season have a decent European campaign and come 10th. We then learn what we need to do for the next time we're in Europe.

Why are people going on about cabaye? Someone said they liked him and now people are talking as if we're linked. Are there any rumours about him and saints?

But this can't be true, a poster, is it Tom28, said he's definitely joining us and had a go at people for questioning it? Surely posters on a forum can't be wrong? As an aside, be interesting to see how ings does for Liverpool who should create more chances for him, if Brendan decides to play him that is.

You're getting all technological on me now!

Just caught up with the last couple. Excellent read Billy, shame you won't be able to do the first 2 European games unless you get to watch them on the box where you are.

If anything Adkins is too good for Sheff United in their current form. Could easily take a top half Championship side role. He knows what it takes to get promoted, would succeed at somewhere like Derby where McClaren fell away. Would be nice to see him gain promotion with Sheff United though, I'll be keeping an eye on them.

No I agree, it's a case of the man not the post.

Because it's Saint Charlie and he's a proven troll.

FIFA bribed the Irish football association with 5 million Euro to not appeal the henry handball which knocked them out of wc qualifiers

I'm hoping he can be like gattuso.

Don't think he's said anything wrong to be fair. Some people whinge about anything.

money "isn't" too tight to mention!

Your figures include Clyne and Morgan going which I believe we'll be able to recoup at least 30m from those two which leaves an outlay (based on your figures) of £26m. That's not a great deal and a figure I think we'll probably spend.

Is ings still definitely joining? He's massively odds on to join Liverpool.

It usually means the person who is owed the loan transfers the loan into shares of the company who owes the loan so the person owns part of the company. Where Kat owns all the the shares in saints I'm assuming more shares are just issued to her, increasing the share volume in saints, but she owns them all anyway.

Not sure why clyne would want to go to west ham...

Lovren then?

Yep, kids out for city and senior players don't want to get injured before their holidays. Winnable.

He won't oust matic at Chelsea. If city don't get pogba he might go there, counts towards home grown quota I think.
