Avenue Saint

May well be so mate, may well be so.

Pele said if Matt le Tissier was Brazilian he'd be playing regularly in the national side. Venables ignored le Tissier at the same time, Matty was at his peak... Mr venables, kindly jog on.

I think so too.

;-)

The guy has contradicted himself numerous times over the last 48 hours alone. Hope this helps...

Trust my own club feeds more than that lot...

Another thing that makes me more hopeful that this will happen now, is the fact that as we have an agreement with Ramirez agent, he may well be on the inside now with Cortese. In that case, the agent will be playing the same Southampton ball with Bologna? Reckon we are in a very strong negotiating position.

That mousse guy is blatantly the least objective journo on there. Blatant cog in the bologna spin machine. Annoying idiot.

Only through this transfer saga, have I come to truly appreciate the significance and influence of twitter... BIG debate to be had about the pros and cons of it.

The pressure game can be played by all... Let Bologna have a bit more of it in the ear from the ramirez camp!

Exactly.

Wouldn't worry too much about the 'corriere'. Seems bologna have been feeding them info throughout to put pressure on us. That mousse chap actually works close with bologna too if I recall correctly. As Adkins says, let's not get too high or too low. Think by tommorow, we'll have a decision.

Well said.

Lol...

So all those based on no solid information quick to point finger at Cortese, seriously, grow up. We are run with professional, reliable and most importantly ambitious hands. Get behind it! If we get the boy great, if we don't, we get someone else. The money is obviously there. This info especially for those spouting crap in those pathetic, there is no money threads going back a few months... Stay patient, for what it's worth, imho all is on course.

@SimonPeach: If #SaintsFC get messed around by Bologna & the deal collapses, there are other targets on the radar. I think it'll go through, though.

More hopeful looking now.

How long did it take the arse to sign ox? Don't recall arsenal being particularly forthcoming about details. Always is the case when you are the buying club...

Golden thread.

I thought the press in this country were bad, GOD ALMIGHTY!! These Italians could send you loopy... Anyways, I reckon it's on. Funny reading the bed wetters mid thread, I wonder if it's something exclusive to Saints, or maybe all clubs have an element of the damp nappy brigade...

50-50 I would say also but fully trusting behind Cortese's motivations which are the best interests of the club. I know one thing, we won't go as far as we might with anyone else at the helm. Nobody...

10% of the deal to penarol according to twitter. Citing news from uruguay.

Nice one 71!
