As soon as I read that I immediately realised that it stinks of Saints and Cortese - keep everything hush hush and behind the scenes as Nige would say. Now you mention the postponement, that also fits in with the respect quote.

Quite a few Dons fans on Twitter saying that it's Saints who made the new bid and he is very close to signing for us. http://www.mkdons.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10420~2431799,00.html IF it is Saints, he will be a very good signing IMO.

According to their website, he is "injured"

Conor O'Sullivan Youth Team player on twitter (@c_osullivan93) 24/08/2011 13:59 Swear I've just seen Liam Fontaine at the training ground! Transfer from Bristol City to Southampton isit! Hard luck @Wescott_1

For that price they can have him. £5.5m for a championship striker in the final year of his contract is madness IMO.

+ 1

On next, talking about rebuilding job and who could possibly be coming to St Marys

http://www.skysports.com/radio Definitely gonna be an interesting listen. Wonder what they have to say about us?

Rumour that Leicester set to offer 3m to West Brom for Simon Cox. Now that would be a really good signing IMO. Saw him in the friendly this year and they were 2 clinical finishes from him.

On the sky sports news banner thingy, it says that Steve Bruce says Sunderland have had offers from Championship clubs for Kilgallon. Wouldn't be surprised if it were us.

Maynard again for City. Great composed finish. Sign him up Nige!!! Leicester 1-2 Bristol City

First things first, as many others have pointed out, Steve & Baj, you are doing a great job and producing a brilliant service 95% of the time apart from match days. However, reading North Stand Chat tonight (Brighton Forum), they currently have 1273 members online on the main board plus however many viewers like myself that aren't registered. They have 3 main forums with 14 sub forums. It is a match day (night) and they have a full blown 23 page thread and the whole forum is running superbly with no slowdowns. Why does ours crash when we have as little as 300ish (?) members online? Is our current server that bad or is theirs as good as what we are going to have in the next couple of weeks?

Just about to post this. SSN say its around 2.5m. Certainly better value for money than Jay Rod but out of him or Maynard, I'd take Maynard.

I'd accept a loan if they were to pay say 250k+ loan fee and the majority of his wages.

Wow he must be pretty good to be acknowledged in a position that even naturals can't get ahead of him!! [/img]

Massive test, but no longer have fear about going into these sorts of games. Can see Fox getting a game because we may go there with the plan to catch them on the counter and he sounds a very attacking full back. Possibly get Maynard or Rodroguez in before Tuesday as well or is that too much to ask?! Saints to win 2-1

Think I agree with you. Looks quite similar.

Well, the squad have left for Barnsley so that looks like the end of signings for this week. Yesterday on Twitter explaining to see more after this weekend. Next week could be a good'un Itkagent1962: Expecting the Maynard to saints deal to gather pace after this weekends round of games...#saints #lcfc

Its actually £3.5m footballcrazy2: Southampton have £3.5million bid for Sylvan Ebanks-Blake accepted by Wolves.

Last year he went to Oxford in Lg 2, this year Bournemouth in Lg 1. We seem to be slowly progressing his development by also including him in the first team squad and I cant help but feel he would've been included quite often this season if we still had 7 subs. He looked pretty useful against Athletico Bilbao.

They really don't know what they've let themselves in for...

I feel that it is something the club should be proud of and eager to display to show to every team how much he meant to us. However it seems it will be locked away until the next ML tournament. Seems as if all of the effort and time has gone to waste.

Theres a couple of spelling mistakes and errors in tonights programme. 1 in first paragraph of Adkins' interview talking about a "fell-good factor" and an error in last paragraph of Kelvin's interview where an "is" has been added for no reason. Shoddy from Saints!
