Sheaf Saint

He was a bit more than that. Played quite a few games for us under Burley in our playoff season IIRC.

All comes down to his attitude and his motivation. Seems clear he has been told he has no future at Saints, and will be lucky to make the bench at best. If he wants to be playing regularly, and someone wants to take him on loan, then I expect it will be fairly easy to do a deal of some kind.

On the basis that he hasn't even given Wes a single minute of first team action to prove himself, I think this is the diplomatic way of saying "I don't like you... F*** off".

And on that note... https://inews.co.uk/culture/television/this-time-with-alan-partridge-steve-coogan-new-series-when-bbc/

Ings and Obafemi unavailable. Gallagher still returning to fitness. Gabbiadini gone to Sampdoria. Are we going to have to rely on Austin and/or Long up front again on Saturday? After how utterly useless they both were against Derby, I wouldn't be hopeful of us getting many (or any) goals if so. Defenders are going to have to earn their money with this game if we are to get any points from it.

"Ooooooh Gabbiadiiiiniiiiiii" Will forever remain one of my greatest memories as a Saints fan. Thanks for your contribution Manolo. I'm sorry it didn't quite work out for you as I'm sure you had more to offer. Good luck at Sampdoria. Ciao Signore.

So a very successful loan spell then, because that's the whole point in us arranging them for our academy products.

I'll see your Garstang Blue and I'll raise you our Shepherd's Purse. Love from Yorkshire

And you clearly don't know a lot about it either, because you seem to be under the impression it is a single homogenous entity, which it isn't, and neither has it ever been formally designated a terrorist organisation. So going back to your original response to Jonnyboy, it kind of renders your opinion irrelevant as well.

Shane Long for that? You must be mad!

Typo - meant 11 goals.

I've lived among northerners for 15 years now, and I have never come across this. With one or two exceptions, northerners in general make far better real ale than southerners do, I'm sorry to tell you.

That's still a big assumption though isn't it. Saying anybody who supports Antifa is absolutely a far leftist is no different to saying that anybody who supports Tommy Robinson is absolutely a far right fascist. And I already know you do not agree with the latter.

I assume this is what Cabbage Face was alluding to earlier in the thread. 11 goals in 25 apps so far this season for Leipzig. Having Ralph here could be a big pull for him, so it's not out of the question.

2-1 Japan now.

And yet here you are doing exactly the same thing - assuming that anybody to the left of Tony Blair is a 'far leftist'.

Remember Sims is back from his loan spell now. Not saying he is up to Redmond's standard, but it at least gives us extra cover in that position.

Yep. All the omens are there. Might as well lump your money on a Derby win now - 19/4 at Bet365. Seems good value to me.

Looking extremely likely that Gabbi will be on his way, and Hoedt has been completely frozen out so unless he is happy to get paid for not even making the bench then he will hopefully be moved on as well.

Not really, because it means we will still have to rely on Targett at LWB. I would much rather have a dedicated CB and Bertrand playing wing back.

If he's fit then I would be very surprised if he doesn't at least make the bench for the replay against Derby.

Won't make any difference though. The general service from Northern Rail these days is so horrifically bad that you won't really notice if they are on strike or not.

He did a while back, but didn't he then get banned from SMS by Cortese?

Rule 1?
