Gone are the days I used to look forward to Guan posting gossip

Just to throw one out there, maybe the new manager is done and he has sanctioned this transfer as he goes about finalising his contract with us. Nah, didn't think so either.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27629474 It's as close to being done as it can be, without being announced.

Sorry, but what the hell has this got to do with our media department? The reason the media have such a free-for-all is because of the likes of RK, and Hans whatshisname and their throwaway, naive comments. The comments regarding them inheriting a difficult financial situation was ill-advised, ill-timed and opened up the doors. This isn't anything to do with the media team. They put out what they're told to put out.

The last 3 echo headlines, in chronological order, in the last 3 days. 'We're aiming for Europe' - full interview with Saints chairman Ralph Krueger Ex-Brighton boss on Saints radar Lambert close to shock Liverpool move

According to a Liverpool ITK, Liverpool are discussing a fee with us regarding Reed as well.

Probably £30m or so, on a load of utter dross.

That was already sanctioned, and they couldn't just stop the work 90% completed (As it was at that stage when they came in).

Take your head out of the sand.

Have you had your head in the oven?

Was that ever actually confirmed? And anyway, at that point - we still had a manager, Lallana, Shaw and Lovren weren't subject to bids and Jay wasn't out for 6-9 months.

They will get them as well.

''We are Southampton, we're not off to Brazil''

But we didn't have stripes, MLT wasn't' allowed in the club, and the press hated us.

Was always just talk, good talk, but talk. I'm never sucked in by people like him, slimy, fan on the board, have a pint with me in the pub types. Actions were what we were waiting for. Looks like we have our 2nd action of the summer, and a 2nd fail for the new board.

It's ok, we want Oscar Garcia. We'll rejuvenate our interest in Mackail-Smith.

That will clearly happen now.

I can see the wood from the tree's, and all the board are feeding us is waffle. Look what they're doing....it will all become clear in 6-8 weeks. Please don't be sucked in by what he says. He's good at talking and getting fans on side, that's why he's in that position. Then the people behind him can do all the stuff he doesn't mention.

''We are Southampton, we're not off to Brazil.''

I tell you what, Twitter has made the transfer window an absolute bull ache. It's like walking through wades of treacle every hour.

It was there, but has been deleted.

They are calm and doing it all in the best interests of Southampton saints, or something.

lol. are the media really this dumb? and if I'm honest, a max of £31m for those 3 would be an utter joke of a deal!

Alps, you do yourself no favours at all. Utter moronic comments as per usual. We're fans, it's the club we support. Not the players, not the manager, not the board. The club. That will be there next year.
