Isn't Schelotto a winger ?

A far more balanced view than that BBC tripe.

But it would be the Malaysian title.

Suddenly one of our players finds the correct way to do things.

That'll mean we need yet another CB.

How do we feel now? Confused. 1) If Katerina is really cashing in, why send Krueger out on his PR tour to deny it ? 2) If we have ambition to build on last season and take the 'hard road' to Europe, why not stand up to those players that throw childish strops ? 3) If Les Reed can do such an "outstanding" job getting fees for the want-away players, why is he so poor at bringing any replacements in ? 4) I know RK has a reputation for letting disgruntled players go, but surely he can't have willingly allowed the cream of the crop to go so easily ? 5) If Spiderman really had been told that he could go, only to have that so publicly revoked, who decided to change the Board's position, and why ? ( Surely they can't have been swayed by the fans - they didn't seem to care during the previous 3 weeks ). 6) How come the French press seem to be more interested in what is going on than the British ?

From the BBC sports page : "...but after the German tweeted: "6 years of an amazing journey #saintsfc DESTROYED in 1 hour !!!" Can't even get his nationality right. EDIT - They've just changed it.

If Morgan wants CL football, why would he move to spuds ?

We'll field a team, but may be charged with playing a 'weakened' one.

Is anybody looking forward to the matchtime threads ?

I give him until the end of August.

How could anybody be more eccentric than selling off the entire first team squad ?

Ben Smith @BenSmithBBC · 4h My understanding is that Jay Rodriguez has already agreed terms with Spurs after the clubs met in Toronto last week Coincidence ?

So, who would be in the running to buy a category-1 academy, a 32 thousand seater stadium, and the promise of next season's parachute payments ? Because if things carry on as they are, that is all that is on the table.

I think we need at least 4 before Friday, just to stem the heamorrhage and show some intent - and they need to be 'names' rather than something that smacks of desperation.

If you can, find a decent LBS ( Local Bike Shop ) and see what they have, it also gives you the opportunity to seek their advice and you should also be able to arrange test rides. FWIW I wouldn't bother with full carbon, unless you are really keen or racing an alu frame with carbon forks will be comfortable and responsive enough. As for gearing, a compact chainset with Shimano components is the easiest to get used to and maintain.

I wouldn't have enough faith in the Board to ask them to buy a pound of apples.

The problem is that if you are a true supporter you cannot 'wash your hands' of the team. In the normal course of things players come and players go ; I've seen Channon, Shearer, and Beattie leave, hell Big Ron even went to Pompey. I've seen as many relegations as promotions, and even in the darkest days of Poortvliet and Wotte I went out and supported my team. I've seen the team that finished 2nd behind the scousers, and I've suffered the Branfoot era, and no matter what goes on before the end of August I could NEVER turn my back on my team and walk away. ( Mind you, at the moment the only crumb of comfort is that the many Blackpool ST holders in my office are in a worse position - at least up to now ).

Lovren only ever intended Saints to be a stepping stone.

1) Perhaps Reed expected 3-4 leaving, ( we've so far only had 3 confirmed sales ), but the new manager has decided that situations like Lovren's are best dealt with by offloading a perceived troublemaker; 2) Perhaps Koeman was relaxed about an additional departure or 2 because he knows about imminent signings. Then again, perhaps tomorrow KL will sanction the sale of every contracted player and Staplewood will be transformed into a wind farm.

Currently I trust in RK, so reckon we;ll be comfortably mid table ( 8th - 12th ). The caveat is I reserve the right to re-assess after the window closes.

Just remember there's no in-game editor.

( Moved to correct thread )

There's so much negativity around here at the moment I tend to go all 'MLG defensive mode'.

Puncheon and Fonte are listed twice; of the list 4 have left, 1 may be following them, and J-Rod is injured but back in training.
