At least you can stop complaining about the club 'cashing in' now so that's one less thing for you to worry about.

The Telegraph are reporting that we're set to sign Boufal for £21.2m

Oh, I must have missed the vote where the majority said they fear that we have a dire manager and our owners and pocketing transfer fee after transfer fee. Can you point out out to me? Thanks

Nicely set up for the 'no win' scenario though. If we don't sign three you can complain about that, if we do, it's only because Les is panicking. No thought about whether it might take more than a week to get a new player through the door and these deals might have been in the pipeline for a while?

Congratulations on beating Batman to posting this link. You must be very proud.

Glasgow, you've created a whole thread of your own to bang on and on and on about net spend. Why not keep it there? This is a thread about potential signings. Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk

Yeah, the last thing we need is an owner that's brought stability to the club and our highest Premier league finish. No one wants that... sack the board. Let's get some Far Eastern owners in with money, we could change our name Southampton Tigers and only wear a lucky red kit. Actually, if you don't mind, I think I'll stick with the owners we have thank you very much. Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk

And he's right. I understand that change frightens people and they struggle to understand how doing things differently can be as effective to what they're used and they fail to understand why it takes time for these changes to get embedded into a team but I'm sure that when Puels time eventually comes to an end, you'll be complaining that the new way is different to the way Puel did things and you therefore don't like it.

I think we're doing OK. Just one lapse where Davis decided not to close Rooney down and they score. Apart from that effort we've had nothing to worry about. We've created a few chances and I'm sure we'll create a few more in the second half. I'm keeping everything crossed as this game ain't over yet. Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk

For what reason would you wish to keep them until the end of the window? So we can continue to pay their wages for a few weeks more? Maybe so they could be disruptive around the training ground? Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

I don't expect it to be overly positive but blimey, some of the doom merchants on here are beyond belief. I appreciate there are plenty of WUMs about but people do seem rather more despondent than is good for them.

A West Ham fan at work has just approached me and told me he's bet on Southampton as his dark horse to finish in the top 5 this season. "Liverpool are the only one's you need to worry about" he said! I was just reading all the whinging and whining posts on here so it looks like a West Ham fan is more positive about us than most of the Saints fans on here. Admittedly he's absolutely barking for thinking we'll finish 5th but it's nice to hear something positive about our club after reading this thread!

I am currently selling a property and we had Purple Bricks around to give us a valuation as they had recently sold a neighbours property and the neighbour was very pleased with the whole process. However, in the end we decided to opt for a traditional Estate agent for a few reasons really: 1. Purpose Bricks valued the property at circa £30k less than the traditional Estate agents that quoted (we've since had an offer of the asking price). Could just be the individual valuer getting it wrong though. 2. With Purple Bricks you pay their fee whether they sell it or not. Obviously they have an incentive to sell the property as their reputation depends on it but if they fail, then you're £800 down. 3. All the traditional agents advertise properties online now and we just felt it was better to have that personal contact where the agent can build a relationship with potential buyers and talk them into viewing rather than leaving them to make their own decisions based purely on what the pictures look like on the website. Just a few of my thoughts on it. As I say, they sold a neighbours property and they were happy with the service but for us, the pros of a traditional agent outweighed the online offering. The agent we used was brilliant so if you're in the area, I would suggest getting Enfields round to give you a valuation. They've been great for us and very professional... and before you ask, no, I don't have any connection with them. Just a happy customer (so far). Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk

What exactly is it that you do on a plane to get you disheveled? Whenever I've had meetings requiring flights or trains I've generally worn my suit rather than turn up in my jeans and say 'excuse me, can I get changed in your toilets please before our meeting'! Or maybe you were thinking he'd get changed in the toilets at Manchester Airport or possibly the back of the car taking him to the meeting?

I noticed a post yesterday mentioning that Fonte was on a flight to Manchester. Normally I ignore such rumours but I have just been told the same story from someone at work who has a friend that was on the Manchester flight yesterday. Jose was on the flight too, "all suited and booted".

I thought he was OK today. Won more tackles than he lost I'm sure and certainly put himself about. Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk

Not much to be optimistic about to be honest. Keep your eye on this site. Some of the the news on here might have gone unnoticed : http://www.bloomberg.com/news/special-reports/britains-brexit-question Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk

I assume this is a wind up. If not, have you not noticed that we've got to the 'next level' every year since we ended up in league 1. The 'next level' for the clubs you mention is to get above us. Who would have imagined we'd be saying goes that 5 years ago?
