SaintLondon

I am a member, I have previous history and I've bought a ticket for a game this season - yet it says I'm not eligable? Why?

Yes it's Alex Crook but as much as it pains me to say it, I don't think he's as shit as he once was.

Looks as though it's a straight loan with no option?

Wishful thinking but could it be that Saints weren't named in the running for Jordan James because the Shea deal wasn't agreed at that point, now it's done and dusted we could enter the running and crucially pay the fee they're asking for.

I'm hoping the latter, I like the look of Mubama but as people have said, if Larin were to get injured, we'd be very light so hopefully we can bring in another more proven 9 too. Time will tell.

Just read it looks like he's off to Sevilla so back to drawing board eh

Just seen some Robbie Ure highlights, I'm sold, get the lad in.

Would love an out of the blue done and dusted one - we are quite good at those.

WHU in for Troy Parrot - think that would be a mega signing for them. In Spors we trust and let's just hope we're not going to 'give BBD a go' as Blackmore suggested.

Alfie House poo pooed the Vipotnik thing. So that's that.

What did he say? Or what didn't he say?

any truth in these Vipotnik rumours? I doubt it at the £20m figure being quoted

I do trust Spors now and think he'll likely deliver, but after such a fast start it does feel like things have slowed right down. I appreciate we need to offload players first, but part of me thinks that if we're squabbling over £1m or so for Shea Charles, perhaps we should just get it done. Look at Boro - they got Hayden Hackney out the door early and they're having a really good window so far, with supposed Saints target Phillips looking like he's about to sign too. Maybe the summer's just gone on too long and I'm looking for something to moan about, but I really hope we're not left playing catch-up again when we're already starting the season with a four-point deduction.

I would absolutely love it if Saints hijacked that deal. Boro tears would be wonderful. Almost as good as Fernandez last night.

I think it's fair to say the design team were given the morning off on this one - intern panicked and said same as two years ago? Done.
