Le Timmier

Poynton! Small world indeed. I moved up 2 years ago to be near my wife's family. Hope I'll be able to influence my future kids as well as your dad did!

I'm in Cheshire too. Get to the northern away games mostly. Not been to SMS for a couple of seasons now. Not met any other Saints fans up here. I always find it slightly strange to meet any northerners that support southern teams. I'll bet we all know "glory supporters" who grew up in the south but support United, Liverpool etc, but it feels really odd when I meet a bloke from Macclesfield who supports Chelsea or Arsenal.

Interested to hear what your bro-in-law is saying about Forest signing 57 new players?!

Haha - yeah maybe that instead!

Which is odd when you think of the two goals he's scored for us. Both really confident strikes. The belter v Villa and that goal against the Dugout Inventors where he absolutely wellied it

So he's kept us up twice with a Championship standard squad since you saw through him?

Isn't that Sarr who played for relegation fodder team who were relegated last season?

Absolutely. You'd think we'd have learnt from experience following Angus Gunn's decline, but watching the goals flying in past Bazunu yesterday - hope he has more resilience!

Arguably Matt Targett may have improved under Koeman but other than that, who are you basing this on?

Or is it to have options on the bench with greater ability?

Someone really should start a "transfer window' thread so that this sort of thing can be discussed

Ralph Hasenhuttl managed a side that finished 2nd in the Bundesliga. Anyone with even a passing interest in that competition had most likely heard of him

Sekou Mara. If you look closely it's written in the tweet that has been posted.

How are you with "rock bottom"?

A fig roll?

Anyone got any more biscuit puns while we're waiting for an announcement? I was trying to force "boring" out of bourbon but couldn't quite make it work

Reports of them going after Ronaldo and Neymar though. New owner may be more interested in spaffing money on Galacticos than bringing through youngsters

Came here hopeful of some transfer news, but the next best thing is biscuit puns. I'd go a long wafer a decent biscuit pun.

"He started the season like a house on fire" Wot?

Bet he knows a thing or two about decent tomato sauce Ahhh - just spotted that @Pilchardsbeat me to this particular dad joke on the main transfers thread!

You mean "slams shut"?

I clearly remember a full kneeslide across the living room, screaming with joy at a refreshed ceefax page when Tahar El Khalej scored a late equaliser against Charlton.

Immense again today. Starting to look like the FF of 2014-16

When one transfer window thread just isn't enough!
