Half Time. A good first half, now let's see the game out. I'm off to work so here's my contribution for the second half. w00t. Thank you, and goodnight.

Lovely slow OWTS ringing around Oakwell

We are top of the league say we are top of the league

Max Gradel sent off? Good. :-)

No striker on the bench either. I know Guly can slot up there, not sure about De Ridder, but it seems we are light in that department. (I know Barnard is yet to come back from injury, but we are still one short IMO).

I agree. Come on Volks, Wagen we all just get along...

I hope you wiped up afterwards.

Well the transfer fee quoted today, and the main point of my post I forgot to include, is the transfer is quoted as 50k. I bet Rovers wish they'd sold him to us now, is we were indeed after him.

Didn't know where to post this, but I see Chris Lines signed for Wednesday from Bristol Rovers today. Weren't we after him for something like a £1million just two years ago?

Which bodes the question - when will SMS become too small for us...

Perhaps she braids it. I hear she links the braids up to her nipple hair. So are we signing Cheryl Cole?

Olivier St Bernard.

Great, what am I meant to do with this massive lob on?

Sores?

I'm just enjoying every game as it comes at the moment, I don't think a loss would dampen our spirits at the moment, but the way we're playing we get the feeling we can beat anyone on our day. As people have said, Barnsley away will be an interesting test, but how satisfying would it be to see our name on the top of the table for a week or so... Will we start Fox? We should do, but with Harding and Dickson in tow, it's a selection dilemma I wouldn't want. It'll be interesting to see how Adkins handles the multitude of talent he has at his disposal. As for this game, I think we'll beat Barnsley in a fairly tight 2-0 win. (But a draw would be no disgrace.)

Is it my ageing mind or did David Hughes score an overhead kick for us?

My chinchilla has the squits. Yorkshiremen scare me. Saturday's the day I turn into a werewolf. I can't miss Tonight's the Night with the ravishing John Battyman. All valid excuses imo.

****ing extra time. Come on Wednesday. Holloway's a cockle.

I voted wrong on the poll. I wish to change my selection from Maynard to Ebanks-Blake please. As payer of Five English Pounds I feel that my request should be adhered to.

I still think he has the potential to be our best central midfielder. Better than Cork even. Tying him down to a long term contract will stop vultures seeing him as a cheap signing. Granted that Hammond, Cork and Chappers are in better form at this moment in time, but we must remember he was out quite a long time at the tail end of last season. Give him the time and the experience to develop, and he could be here for years to come.

I'll be working as per.

Either would be an excellent acquisition but I think we should hold out for Owen... (Rodriguez would be a good signing too.)

Potentially the best signing of the summer if this is true. What a good news day this is for Saints. (Potentially.)

I've got the Best Air Guitar Anthems on the hifi, I've just switched the 'Puter on to find out about the Fox signing, and the most positive potential signing thread I've read all summer. Natch, I'm jumping around the room air guitaring. Get in there Saints, let's **** up the rest of the nPC and go ONE BETTER than effing Norwich...

Fish's replacement or Dickson's replacement? Seems weird to strengthen the strongest position we have at the club, but hey ho, I haven't seen Fox play, so if he's an improvement on either of the other 3 then that's a good thing. Still need a CB in, and perhaps a striker and/or winger, and we're pretty much there.
