They made the choice to pay the players rather than their tax for the last two months. HMRC have just stopped them from doing it again.

No idea what we are looking for, just that staff were anticipating activity all day and tomorrow re transfers.

Superb. Failure to pay the players HAS to result in points deductions surely?

Good to know that someone has heard the same as me. Fingers crossed eh?

Haha. I'm really not a negative person if you met me offline. I reckon you would agree with me...

Have heard we are looking for more than just sharp. We backed out of the collins deal this morning and are pursuing alternatives.

Do you mean me? Possibly he knows the same person that I do but I can assure you he is nothing to do with me!

Not bothered. I want him to sign, I really hope he does was told via text at 14:29 'hate to p*ss on the parade but sharp isn't anywhere near finalising personal terms'

Thank you. Is exactly what I heard from somewhere who works with the players. Hope we agree terms though.

Have heard sharpe is nowhere near agreeing personal terms.

Fwiw have a mate who works at Solent he just told Me it's true.

Erm no it's a personal twitter account of someone who happens to be a journalist.

Let us also remember the summer when we were linked with all manner of players before the window closed and we only got a cb. I reckon we will get a cb on loan in a week or two and that will be it.

Please let us sign sharp. Please. I am prepared for disappointment so anyone we do get will be great.

I'm fully aware of that. Someone offered a theory about saint's financial situation and I was just saying that a similar thing was relayed to me last week. Individuals can take whatever they like from it. I can't say with any certainty that he is right or not. He said he had spoken to other players who had heard similar.

No idea but he seemed pretty certain.

Yep. Exactly what an ex player told me in hospitality last week. No danger of going bust, but limited funds to spend.

Problem is as you say, we sounded like this in the summer! A striker and CB on loan would be the perfect window and Adkin's statement about taking full advantage of the window will be true.

Yep it's ridiculous. Get sharp in and conclude the window in style. My worry is we will get no one and have a 'we tried' attitude whilst failing to strengthen further in January which would be a real shame.

Yep. That is a huge consideration, probably bigger than the money.

Can't say I agree with that at all. Ultimately effort counts for nothing if we don't manage to sign who we wanted.

So not really cover for jos then, more of another option. Good because it's what we needed. Adkins has done what I expected so far. One new striker (sharp hopefully) and it will have been a great window.

The sort of thing I wanted. Hopefully till the end of the season. Striker please and we are sorted.

Just one more reason why it won't happen (not now anyway.)

Amazing. Exactly how I imagined Lee would be.
