always been one of the top keepers in this league. currently probably the best and wouldn't want to swap him for any.

fool filled with spite

thought it was Allborg who had to send the forms in time?

well beats they looked crap on ceefax as we had last game;)

maybe even midnight on 31st as loans often are

think this is done at length on the Saga thread, answer lies somewhere in conspricacy / saving money / Allborg considering hanging on to him / trying to move him elsewhere / only had bank holiday since loan ended??

what was the Iwelumo one I missed that? Was it quoting post match comment on how well we played?

think the Dyer one is even stranger..but that's another thread!

he just sees us a big draw after the skates!

reckon that will be pretty close

maybe they were indecisive about keeping him and didn't commit -just guessing

He said: "We're competing for all four. The FA Cup is different altogether, though, because it's partly about luck, you've got to remember that. We experienced it last year in the quarter-finals against *Portsmouth, where we didn't carry any luck [and lost 1–0]. You always want a home draw but Southampton have got that and it's an advantage to them. It's a good stadium at St Mary's, a nice pitch, and they are a young team. Their coach [Jan Poortvliet] has done a great job considering he doesn't have any money." http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/jan/02/sir-alex-ferguson-manchester-united-football-southampton-fa-cup

forgotten that interview. All very strange, especially with him so recently given a new contract???

the team passing on the registration was getting a fee!

its likely that that needs to be done by Allborg transferring the registration -after the loan period i.e. new years day!

is Quelle Surprise a new CB? Has he got international clearance?

exactly -any of them when there have been ridiculous criticisms and complained about all of them when I think its due. I will support saints no more or less if Lowe, Crouch, Wilde, Salz, Abramovich or Richard Madeley was chairman

wouldn't be surprised if he is off and other discussions are on going, but if his loan ended on for arguements sake on midnight 31/12 and the process requires Allborg to take the onus and forward registration forms to UEFA after that they could only have done that today -and wouldn't it need to have been cleared by midday today for playing at the weekend?

for a fee, we didn't have that carrot to dangle to get their arse in gear perhaps? It may well be due to other attempts to sell him but doesn't seem totally bizarre that, if it finished on 31st (don;t know if that is true) then they couldn;t do anything until 2/1?

I enjoyed supporting my team last week and will continue to do so. I don't support, or even glance towards whoever is sat in the directors box -didn't when first went to chocolate boxes and started supporting saints and I still go to watch the 11 in red and white. Its my team and will stay that way, unless it no longer exists after administration, which will be a shame as my boys won't grow up with the club like I did, still you will be happy. If I stop supporting my home town team, then call me a traitor, until then you sound silly.

when did it end then? managers won't be involved in organising registration (you are acyually making arguement for someone like lowe who is experienced in the admin of a football club over likes of Crouch, Salz or someone new)

it was tongue in cheek -remember I am officially a happy clapper apparently, and will sit back watching the club die!

only as above -if it was due at end of loan period that has just passed it wouldn't neccessarily be their top priority to get into the office first thing and get it done - not like there are getting fee in return

after celebrating the demise of saints will you go to Fratton Park?

so are you saying he read it wrong and Terry wouldn't improve our team?
