If you could put the best bits of both together you would have one hell of a left back for sure.

Is this now longer than the Jack Cork thread from last summer.....or the Rudi Skacel one from a few years back ? It feels like this had been running longer than Corrie !!

It was nowhere near 800k, both Adam Blackmore and Simon Peach have tweeted independantly that we settled a fraction of that.

yes we did give up any chance of sell on clauses back then in the dark days.

Thats very true, even the Rangers owner, Green, said Southampton had acted honourably.

I expect us to be bottom come mid September given the fixtures we have. We will rally by Christmas and have a decent New Year where we will finish about 14th. Tadanari Lee and Nathan Clyne to shine, Rickie will not be club top scorer. thats my predictions !

I dont think we stand a chance with signing this guy........ there that should see that it happens

Carlton Palmer is the one that immediately springs to mind. Who knew he would be so good, at least for a season.

Mine was Keegan without question. I even remember it got mentioned at school in morning assembly the next day....and that was in Weymouth !!! Always remember getting home from school the day he signed and Dad saying to me "If Southampton were to sgin anyone who would you want it to be?" The only name I could come up with was Trevor Francis and he said "No son, better than that" !! The one signing Saints have made where I can remember exactly where I was and how I heard the news.....I guess that qualifies as a WOW signing

Yes but as someone has just said its in his interests to do so. If he impresses and gets into the squad will he revert back to his old self, job done ? Like I said I dont trust him and would be wary of his motivation.

If we bring in another forward or midfield player who has pace and can play out wide then no. If we dont sign anyone like that then he could well make it into the 25. Personally I wouldnt take the risk, you cant trust the guy.

So he did.....just testing to see who is keeping up

Lallana not featured at all then !

I couldn't agree more. If that prat Pearce doesnt pick him when the Olympics start then no way is he going to be as fit as the rest of the players. Sooner they get knocked out the better IMHO.

I have just been sent an apology e mail for the errors of yesterday and can confirm the price has gone up by £2 to £37.99.

To send them Forecast on a season long loan is taking the ****. Here is a man who wasn't good enough for Eastbourne Borough......I feel sorry for them

Well if he goes back on loan then at least we know there is another keeper signing coming up !

As he said yesterday he isnt the club secretary.......dont want him to waste his third post btw :-)

how on earth have we managed to beat the three Northern clubs to this guy ? Perhaps there is a Puncheon "i cant live too far from London" thing going on !!

Its nothing at all, its a loan.

Its just a season long loan at this stage.

From our point of view I hope so :-)

shame their manager is clueless.....well to be fair probably another of those "excellent coach" but no good as boss types that we know so much about !

thats the bit I wanted to see, a couple of centre halves !

I liked Adam Hammill.....there I've said it oh and Belmadi - the midfield guy who played in the Championship for us when Redcrapp was here.
