SNSUN

A rat just made me jump outside Hounslow West station. If I can capture it, they can have that. And my ******y pants that I got as a result of said surprise.

Out of contract this summer according to Forest forum...

West Ham have had a bid for Jelavic rejected by Rangers. HA! The Scots really don't want to sell, do they. Things are starting to hot up. I wish I were able to follow the deadline day goings on on Tuesday.

I think he's looked good when he plays, quick, good touch on the ball, some skills. Technically he looks good, but he's nowhere near the finished article. He's a good squad member to have in the side though, and could one day make the right slot his own, but he'll have to improve and impress Nige to do it. Give Falque a chance too - some of the (few) touches he made were good too. There's much more to come from both these two.

Hooiveld was class until his injury. THAT tackle was worthy of the Premiership. We need him back ASAP, or a bloody good reinforcement signing.

Is he the Japanese Michael Owen?

********! After all my playfulness on the Puncheon thread I fell asleep on the sofa literally two minutes before this was announced! Very pleased with this signing, it'll widen our audience in Japan for one thing, but also judging by his stats he'll be a welcome addition to our first team! Yes people will question why we couldn't have achieved both the Puncheon scenario and Lee's signing before the Leicester game, but these things take time. Looking forward to seeing him in action the next time I can get to see Saints. A CB and another Striker and we're golden. :-)

Incidentally it's clever from Cortese too, because if he plays well, his sale price will sky rocket for any potential summer transfer.

WTF???

Adkins was smashed when he was driving last night...

Makes me wonder whether this would have happened had we been fighting relegation, but still, happy!

Wait a mo, we've gone from being on a bus to being on a rowing boat?

It will take him a **** load of work to win the fans over, but it is doable. If he plays like Lionel Messi. Or Adam Lallana. But this is as good as a new signing, and at no cost, so initially I'm very pleased if it's true.

I'll be working instead of watching my beloved team, but thanks for worrying about me. x

I have a feeling in my bones that a signing will be made today and it will be on the OS at 11:23pm. Or tomorrow, or Friday, or...

But are we going to Land him?

I was going to say play the youth side and get the hell out this competition to concentrate on our flagging league dreams, but with so many players seemingly coming back from injury we'd be wise to give them a game and get some match fitness. Them, and any signings we may have between now and Saturday.

If Adkins has been looking for a striker anyway, then the purse strings are already loose - this may just accelerate one or two things, I wouldn't be surprised to see more loans come in than we initially planned for.

Guly is having a mare tonight.

I couldn't wait until full time.

Right, I'm going to go quiet - can't watch Saints, eat pizza and type at the same time. :-(

Come on Saints. Not over yet.

Fecking Skate bastard

Dave snatched at that. Keep your heads on guys.

Saints win.... or the puppy GETS IT!
