Ta (want to watch it for myself)

Where was this? Please and thank yous.

Signing Juanmi, Martina, Romeu, and Caulker (...and to a lesser extent Austin), all sort of belie the possibility that Reed has too hard a hard on about it.

Personally, I think he seems like an all right bloke. He appears nice enough when interviewed, and was pretty graceful in defeat. All that being said (and with my Saints-specs on), I'm not fond of him

As for the OP, How's the leg? In all seriousness, do you really care how you are perceived (here)? As long as you're content with what you post, that's all that really matters, no? If someone (myself included) takes exception to what you've said, you either, A) retort, B) examine what you've said, or C) let it slide...and that's sort of the entire point of this place. There's certainly no 'new guy' victimization at play (imo).

That's the second time I've responded to you Besides, I couldn't follow you around even if I wanted to, on account of my leg being in a cast P.S If you genuinely think I'm "following" you, the only defence I can offer is, one can't help being a fly

Of course you weren't. Something something, leg's in a cast, something something, Les Reed's fault, something something, clusterf*ck.

Shoehorned into a comment about Jack Cork too (in the Other Games thread)

Reminded me of a lot child desperately looking for its mother

All of which is immaterial, as you well know.

What are you talking about?! Reed was here for years before Cortese left.

Yuki to replace Saint Charlie.

Townsend's perception on here seems to have done a complete u-ey in recent weeks. I still wouldn't want him here (not that I would be disgruntled as such if we did sign), but perhaps I haven't watched him closely enough. Either way, a hot streak (5 or so games) isn't enough to convince me. Anyway, Ox would be my pick. Koeman's comments on Depay still come to mind (although we allegedly still looked at him, so perhaps he's changed/it's workable). Not that I think either are likely (with Depay being a complete no-go really). As mentioned above, Ox's (most probable) potential domestic suitors are Liverpool, Everton, West Ham....and us? Do people reckon Liverpool will go for him if they're able to sign Gotze? West Ham would probably offer crazy wages. I can't see too much of an issue out-muscling Everton, particularly with the player/club history-aspect.

Not this nonsense again. How much did you cash your Saints Relegated 200/1 bet out for in the end?

Undoubtedly I'm merely perplexed as to how someone could watch Wanyama and Clasie play, and conclude that Wanyama is a superior passer of the ball.

Just think how high we would be if we still had Gaston

You can't possibly be serious.

How'd you work that out?

Don't be ridiculous.

Win's a win, but our defending was nonsense for most of the match.

Winning, that's welcome. Too open for my liking though (even before their goal). Fonte looks like he's still playing with a concussion at times

Something else which you've imagined
