I would take Upson on a short term contract as cover without giving it a second thought.

The most interesting thing in that forum posted link is that Butterfield has played cantre back for them in the past. I dont recall Martin having trouble jumping off the ground when he played for us !

Merson is your typical thick footballer. He's a laugh simply because he is so thick and illterate. Cant take anything he says seriously.

WOULD be ??? Doesnt he mean WILL be ?

This is getting fkin tiresome.......

The club's official photgrapher who tweeted that pic of his cameras and that Saints shirt sat on the floor waiting to be posed with must be bloody bored by now, he's been waiting in that room since 9 this morning

Is he Jonno quick ? NA liked his pace too...and he is now at Crawley.

yes please !

typical bloody patronising statement from Fergie towards a club NOT in the top 6 !!

Its about 8 pages back, basically that he was joining Southampton

Official club photographer just tweeted a pic of a shirt lying in front of backdrop - here he comes..........

Yeah but is he any good ?

No it was Scott Marshall i think.

Very ! As you are pretty quick with the camera how about getting a job at a Lymington hotel just after Christmas.....

Since everyone else on here likes to theorise I think whats happened is Ramirez has signed his contract with us, and as is the way these days, tweeted the info. Someone from the club has said something like "now hold off twitter or facebook until we announce it officially", Gaston has thought "bugger, best I delete that then" and hey presto its gone from his twitter page. Or not

They haven't. They have signed a striker from Germany this evening and are still chasing Dempsey.

Interestingly Gaston has now deleted the tweet from above. Didnt Clyne do a similar thing until Saints announced it ?

IF GastonRamirezOK is his official twitter page, and it looks like it is, he has confirmed it

Absolutely. Anyone would keep hold of a player for an extra few weeks if it means they can get extra cash in.

Which is always what happens with this transfer window business. Just look at Andy Carroll to Liverpool. There is no way they would have paid that much had there been no transfer deadline. Its pretty standard practice nowadays which is why there is a lot to be said for concluding deals at the start of the window whenever possible.

Its probably in an effort to speed it up. I expect the doctor has a pen and the contract in his bag

yeah but who is he ?

he might sign before the Yoshida transfer makes the OS.......its been a fkin long 10 mins. i know its confirmed but even so......

Please God let it be Ramirez........I bet it isnt but please........
