Pilchards Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Oscar Gobern SIGNS 20 year-old Southampton youth product Had offers from Southampton, Swansea, other Premiership clubs but chose Town to get games Hahaha Premiership offers but he chose the Udders, **** off the official website like someone wanted him in the premiership, more likely wanted to demonstrate a flying side kick in my class.

Scudamore Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 I reckon he may have a season or two of Premier League football in him one day. But no big loss really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Window Cleaner Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 how much do you reckon for him? Tribunal indemnity?? 125K at most, more likely than not a lot less. Strange how few seem to appreciate what "out of contract" means. It's a an indemnity decided by a tribunal for young players(provided we at least offered him a contract) and absolutely f all for those over 25 ; you can't sell them or part exchange them, they're just gone.

Lighthouse Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 We have to be realistic here, our 4th choice CM in League 1 isn't going to get you into the Premier League. If we want to compete with the likes of Wham, Brum, Foxes and Reading next season we're going to have to do a lot better than Gobern. Good luck to him though, hopefully he'll come up with Udders next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint-Armstrong Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Shame. Not too upset though, was never more than 4th choice, and not the sort of player suitable for a top-end Championship club. (looking ahead before I'm accused of arrogance) All the best Oscar, and thank you for the memories, especially this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if we'd gone up in '07 we could still have Bale, Jones and Baird. Surman and DMG left due to our second relegation. Dex, Best, Matt Mills and Cranie left mainly because they weren't getting games. We've still got Chamberlain and Matt Mills who look promising. Even Bart it could be argued, having joined as a 16 year old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatlesaint Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 This is probably me just being thick, but I can't see anything on the Hudders or Saints OS about this happening... There isnt anything saying any such thing on Huddersfield's OS. No one in their right mind would post that about a 20 year old who has barely played a dozen games. Soelnt is the only place the news has broke so far. Good luck to him, he was ok but never ready for Championship football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammysaint Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 I think we should of signed him and loaned him out, hes a player who i think will be a decent championship midfielder if he gets the playing time but he wont be a top championship player or prem player. i love hammond and chaplow but if we really want to push for promotion we need someone better then these two, there do a job to get us a safe midtable postion and maybe a playoff spot but cant see them being good all season.

Saint Charlie Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Quite likely we made an offer we knew he probs wouldn't accept probably a one year contract. Must put the club in a stronger position at hearing if we have 'tried' to keep him. If we really wanted him it would have been done earlier.

Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Was never going to make it with us. Distinctly average and wants games, which he won't get here. Good luck to him, but he's really not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
del boy Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 He's still young and could yet develop into a very good player. He was getting games so must have had something - but Nigel presumably needs to free up room on the bus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Diamond Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 I think it's safe to assume that if he was any good he'd have been signed to a long term contract a long time ago. He wasn't, and he's gone. To a team in the division below. Not even the slightest bit bothered about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 I for one am sorry to see him go. He was a good impact player and a valued member of the 18 on match day. I know NA rated him highly and he was offered a deal but obviously not good enough. At the end of the day though we need players who share the vision not just want good salaries so I guess it is best all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saints-cris Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Good move for him, wish him all the best. Good player but just not good enough for where we are going. What it does say to me though is that we absolutely are looking for a midfielder. Maybe one might even be lined up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexstar Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Thought he fitted in well during the sub appearances he made last season. I guess we're looking for that class above though. Best of luck to him at Huddersfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not if he sees that Saints are planning to bring in more central midfielders to knock him even further down the pecking order. Hammond Chaplow Schneiderlin ...are all ahead of Gobern You could argue that... Chamberlain Lallana Guly ...would also do a better job if needed in central midfield. If the club really is looking at players like Jack Cork, Gobern would be a long way from getting game time (even from the subs bench) in the Championship.

VectisSaint Posted 18 June, 2011 Share Posted 18 June, 2011 Have to think that this is because he knows we are bringing in better, otherwise he would have been better staying put as 4th choice CM at his age. Even then we would probably have done better keeping him and loaning him out for a season. Seems odd that we have let him go so easily. Still if he wants off the bus then he can Foxtrot Oscar.
