Saint Charlie

http://claretandhugh.wordpress.com/2013/09/09/carroll-injury-update/ This guy is well connected. Said this morning Carroll training well. Not impossible, but unlikely.

Its a false rumour.

My agenda is very very clear: Billy Sharp isn't good enough for us hence we are trying (and struggling) to get rid of him. Based on all available evidence I would say that is very objective. I don't understand why fans are so bothered about his situation. Nobody cared about Hammond who did far more for the club.

Downing and Cole out for WH. Vaz Te likely to start after making a complete mess of trying to leave on Deadline Day. Carroll to play some part.

Spot on.

http://www.football-italia.net/39281/osvaldo-roma-wanted-me-out Happy to have joined Saints and settling well.

So, hopefully this is the week we finally get shot of Sharp's wages.

Sack your source pal. No offers from Prem teams, 100%.

Isgrove's Wales U21s lost 1-0 to San Marino!

You must have taken a big hit on the Sinclair deal. 1000 quid at 5/1 wasn't it? #mug

What a guy. Saints legend, of that there is no doubt.

A lot of our players are important players for their country. Can only be good really. Would love to see Lovren play England some time.

Unless Welbeck gets a third Lambert could well be MOTM.

He is ok, don't love or hate him. Thats a fair assessment IMO.

Would have suited all parties but again 20k a week is a lot for them to pay. I reckon he will go on loan to somewhere like Reading or Wigan, someone with parachute money who gets desparate. Or he can take a pay cut of course.

Yes. No Prem bids received for Sharp. I don't blame Glasgow but his source has given him duff info here.

Jay Rod has to come back in.

Downing and Joe Cole out injured. Carroll likely to return but wouldnt have played for months.

Agree 100%. Especially when the team rarely pays all of the players wages. Its a joke system.

For an 18 year old to look so assured in the Prem is rare. Of course Clyne is better now, he is an excellent player and has nearly 200 pro apps to his name compared to Chambers' 3. In the book 'The Nowhere Men' an Arsenal scout who tracked Shaw from age 14 said Chambers has an equal amount of potential and is extremely highly rated by a number of clubs. Not bad for a player who has been a RB for just over a year.

I think thats it for me. All of Ramirez' best games for us have come playing just off the striker.

Key pieces for me: - Clyne and Shaw need to play. - Fonte has done more than enough to keep his place (I wanted Yoshida to start season but Fonte and Lovren have been very solid in every game so far). - Jay Rod has to start when fit as gives us a much more dynamic team, especially when coming in from the left. - I don't see why Ramirez and AL can't play in the same team, especially at home. - Lambert is not a number 10.

Just been told by someone who would definitely know that no bids from Prem teams came in for Billy this summer. Also that Forest didn't want him (which was pretty obvious) and loan approaches were made by Barnsley, Doncaster and Sheff Wed, all of which wanted to pay far less than 50% of his wages hence being turned down.

Not at all. Just that clearly from this thread the majority think we had a great window. How do you think it went for us?

Seems the sane majority are going for B+ minimum then.
