Saint-Armstrong

Exactly. I would write this straight off, but that interview and the fact it has come from this guy, who's been on the ball for announcing several deals before they were officially announced or well-known makes me at least consider it to potentially have some credibility.

Article penned by that Alan Nixon bloke who mentioned the Sharp, Fox, Cork approaches early doors, lets hope it is nothing more.

I've seen Butland play quite a few times and I have never been impressed. I remember watching Local side Southend United play Cheltenham here on a Friday night and he was absolutely all over the place. He was at fault for all 4 goals, he was an absolute shambles. From kicking, to saves, to claiming crosses, everything was abysmal. Although this was just one game, I do think he is over-rated.

Nope, he is staying with Martin Hunter and the Development Squad.

Can't see Sunderland doing anything but improving and moving into the top-half next season, but who knows.

Yep, much like Lambert at Norwich. Got Norwich to PL from L1 and wasn't going to step away in his first season. Did the hard work to get there and wanted to see his side perform well, and they have. However next season may be different for him, and the season after, potentially us.

SSN also showing stats this morning showing Jarvis with highest number of crosses this season. 200+ (Possibly 237 - but don't quote me on that) All irrelevant without a completion % I know but would be tasty for Rickie!

I must say, this is absolute superb, love Brian Blessed he's brilliant.

I don't read that pile of crap. It wasn't from here and I don't read that.

Not sure where I read it. All I do know is that I didn't read it on here though.

I remember seeing something about Dirk Marcellis of AZ (right-back/centre-back/holding-midfielder), and team-mate Marten Maartens, Belgian International Winger.

Tiff Needell was just in front of me at the Coventry game. (Former Racing Driver, Fifth Gear presenter, formerly of Top Gear and still does roadshows with them)

Hahaha. It is amusing watching me discussing out of contract players and players lacking regular football becomes "He's going there!". I wonder if I go onto Charlton's board and discuss it there he'll be signing for them too?

Was me on OwlsTalk. Let me set the record straight as I have seen this mentioned in a few places now.! One of them asked me about Barney, I said he was down the pecking order and they said they'd like to have him there. I said that could become a possibility that such a situation could happen as Barnard is likely to have limited playing time here next season with Lambert, Lee, Sharp, Guly and potentially one more striker (which Nigel seems to want).

...say French newswires. Apparently British Embassy in France has just announced it.

Nothing confirmed of course, but go to Pg. 134 of this: http://www.southampton.gov.uk/Images/CCMP%20public%20consultation%20version_tcm46-314213.pdf Mentions of a "Saints Square" and other developments near the waterside and ground.

Rodriguez and Trippier would be great additions IMO.

What's a battered eyelid like then?

I remember the sarcastic applause and cheers of the players when he caught the ball in last year's legends game.

Why so when they feel low they look at him and his career and makes them feel better? I'm tired so why is he called Bar Stool?

Tug of war.... very funny.

As Nigel once said: "Aim for the stars, and you might just get to the moon." So... Aim for Champions League, and we might get in the Europa League!

Alex Chamberlain is there. Numerous people having been posting pictures on Twitter of them with Alex either at the event, or at Jury's Inn, where he is staying:

Guly called him a dinosaur to the people on his table apparently.
