SuperSAINT Posted 17 June, 2015 Share Posted 17 June, 2015 Why is this thread now a sticky by the way? I think because the deal is as good as done according to various reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 17 June, 2015 Share Posted 17 June, 2015 Just been browsing the Sporting forums, it kind of reads like our Clyne thread. Really odd. ''We can replace him for better'' ''he tailed off in the second half of the season'' ''he's not really that good'' etc etc. But there are some very interesting insights, where a fair few believe he will go on to become top quality - but the coaching and 'situations' at Sporting have stalled him slightly. Also, what I think is an ITK sporting guy, he said he's signed a 4 year deal. All done bar the shouting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shance Posted 18 June, 2015 Share Posted 18 June, 2015 just another pathetic rumour to try and jack up the price.....? Typical journo cr*p. Not sure tbh, by all accounts they had a bid accepted but he wasn't keen on Stoke. That's just something I've read though. As soon as we came in it was us over Stoke.

iansums Posted 18 June, 2015 Share Posted 18 June, 2015 He wasn't here yesterday for a medical but he was here for photos. Should be announced pretty soon. Are you questioning KBilly's info? How very dare you! Source please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 18 June, 2015 Share Posted 18 June, 2015 I get the impression the club like to announce things so it can break at a good time on SSN to get maximum exposure, circa 5pm to 7pm. They'll probably do it at 2:30pm now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint-Armstrong Posted 18 June, 2015 Share Posted 18 June, 2015 I imagine the obligatory official tweet will be sent imminently then? Not sure. Might make sense for them to hold it back until later this afternoon for 'impact' and because internet traffic will be higher. More hits etc = more money through the site. Also, better performance figures for the media dept. But it's done, I think we can take that from developments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 18 June, 2015 Share Posted 18 June, 2015 Right back done. Sign up Clyne and it becomes our strongest position! (However unlikely). 2 in, no outs. I like that. There will be "outs" of course, but it cushions the blow when we sign people first. Keeper, striker, Clyne replacement, (I.e. A second right back) Toby replacement, Morgan replacement and we're done IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 18 June, 2015 Share Posted 18 June, 2015 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/20150618-cedric-soares-portugal-sporting-announcement-signing-2498917.aspx Executive Director of Football Les Reed commented: “Cédric represents a quality addition to our squad, and is another player with a desire and hunger to succeed. “Like Juanmi, Cédric is a young player with international experience as well as exceptional talent and potential. He joined Sporting’s academy at the age of eight and progressed through to first-team football and international recognition – a pathway previously trodden by a number of our own homegrown stars. “We have been following Cédric’s progress for some time and felt now was the time to make our move. While there was competition from other Premier League clubs we were confident we would prove to be an attractive option for such an ambitious player.
