Not Championship, but we were linked with Rob Dickie at Oxford at one point.

Totally agree. After Ings, we might find ourselves struggling up front, especially if its a choice of Long and Obafemi. Ideally I'd like to see a forward with a bit of height, a young Pelle, to offer some variation.

Wonder if he'll wear an Alice band in Albion' colours.

Some of his pier group rate him quite highly

Very. Remember that day well. Norwich went down that season as well.

Tremendous end to the season, and response following the restart. Far better than expected. Nice to end the season with a win at home, hopefully this has done the work of the White Witch and lifted the curse ahead of next season. Only note of caution, let's not be lulled into complacency following this run of form,. For a start,the defence - especially Vestergaard and every GK we possess - is capable of a Grade A f^ck-up. McCartney sounded guilty of two today, and let's not focus on JV.

Got to question if Woy will be with them when the new season starts.

Quite often under Mark Hughes as I recall.

Good news on the face of it, but we never know the detail of the contract extension, such as any having to notify him of any bid from a CL club etc. Anyway it does appear to show commitment and in the event of any interest from others might protect us from a paltry fee.

Quite ironic in the first season that VAR has been in use.

No point in it today, not as if he can play up to the crowd.

Although we can mock and take the p!ss about his limited role in the L/pool successes as he's been a bit part player over the last couple of seasons the fact is he'll retire with both a Champions League winners medal, and League title. More than Gerrad and Carragher can boast.

Don't forget the badege kissing. That said, is there any possibility, no matter how slim, that some of the publicity surrounding his departure was a Les Reed inspired spin ? Think this has been covered regarding other players leaving, and like most the truth is somewhere in between. Question though, where did the 'ignoring my phone calls' come from ?

Wasn't with us that season, think he joined the summer after. Do you mean the SF v Chelsea?

£20m perhaps, but anything less and I'd be inclined to tell him he's staying. Are Denmark in the Euros ? If so doubt he'll want to stagnate too much.

Been following Saints too long to get excited over possible signings. We almost had Toby signed up to stay at one point...

Haven't we been here before ?

If only we'd had social media for that to be posted at the time... would have gone down well in Skatesville

Would be a good signing, but I can't see it somehow. Believe he's a reliable penalty taker as well !

Just that we only got to sing it about twice.. no idea what it was though.

They're the ones off the top of my head. Many white players over the years haven't had "songs" , did Jack Cork for instance, or Fraser Richardson, or Danny Butterfield ?

Going back, Reuben Agboola for one. Also Jon Viafara. More recently Wanyama, and Redmond.

Omar Colley ?

With the exception of our promotion seasons they've not really been the same since we left The Dell, although I think they were discouraged from the mid 80's.

This word gets on my tits as well ....
