Saint Charlie

No.

Great player, great fee, great deal for both parties. Well done NC for getting the most we possibly could for him.

He was always going to go this summer, glad its before the end of the window, now we can really strengthen...

Not much we can do, move on and replace him with another de Ridder.

Seems like it might be about to happen, a year too early for him but you can't really blame him. Its obvious his Dad has wanted him to move on for a while.

I thought on the whole we were very slick- passed and moved better than last season.

Yep, especially as he played right wing all game!

He will only stay beyond this season if we can grow with him so to speak. Great player and top attitude!

I know we expect it by now but have to say that Fonte was superb again. Can hardly recall him ever having a bad game for us. Harding as well put in another very consistent performance, Snodgrass was anonymous and part of that was Harding's work.

Doesn't look like Vossen, too old. Probably someone who works at the academy.

Got a good future ahead but needs to go out on loan and get regular games. His actual defending was good but he was dodgy on the ball.

Anyone who even considers what is posted on that football rumours website is misguided...its 99.9% bull****.

From the amount of donations that were made and the effort taken then surely the flag should be displayed. The club could put it in the spaces where there are empty seats...

Him and Fonte would make a great combination! As he has played in pre season he will be fit, shame it won't be done for Saturday (most likely).

Perhaps we stalled and think Gorkss is a better option. Afterall, it sounds like he wanted to come and then things have changed. Or this might be a bit of brinkmanship...

Think its Alberto Seidi!

Hopefully someone who is going can get some transfer gossip!

That second link is just a Fan website of the French club Brest who were previously interested in Jemal.

Yeah, and he is clearly still being watched by the biggest clubs.

Just on 5 live now the Leeds chief scout on a scouting programme. Said he was at Saints v WBA the other night, obviously checking us out. He said that when Chamberlain got injured a couple of Scouts he knows from big clubs got up and walked out. Doesn't add anything to the Chamberlain story but interesting anyway.

Pretty sure a couple of weeks. His must have been more straightforward because he was already working here. Jaidi was training with us during that time I think.

Soton Echo this morning says waiting for work permit. Saints these days certainly would wait for a work permit before announcing. Otherwise if it didn't happen they would look silly.

Burnley are also closing in on Keith Treacy...

Last season Morgan made numerous great interceptions in our penalty area and he is no longer a player that gets bullied. In the final game vs Walsall he setup the first goal by making a crunching tackle.

In the match thread someone mentioned that Adkins wasn't there for part of the match or didn't seem to be. Adkins says after to expect player movement very soon. Adkins was finalising something before/part way through the game? 2+2=5 I expect but you never know...
