Fan The Flames Posted 5 January, 2009 Share Posted 5 January, 2009 I would have thought that a lot of people walking through the carpark last night would have had the same conversation about finances and money, its a constant theme with the **** Lowe in charge. So Lordsword over egged the pudding on this one but the snippets on the players is interesting stuff. Don't flame the guy do as he says and make your own minds up.

Frank's cousin Posted 5 January, 2009 Share Posted 5 January, 2009 It is funny though... sure lets have the rumours and gossip from the HP and Heinz 57, but FFS take it with the pinch of salt it deserves - I can just imagine Merry and Pippin walking througfh the car park' talking high finance' - Sorry merry, you may have tried, but you failed for one simple reason, you and your colleagues simply could not come up with the necessary cash - that does not need expertise in high finance, but simple maths will suffice - and anyone who really believes that Lowe, Wilde and Crouch + ALLthe other shareholders should by some moral and divine code simply gift the club to a group of tin pot local businessmen and a former manager, who between them have raised a FEW mil or so are in a dream world...

Adam Lallana has no idea about such a move. He expects to be a Saints player for the rest of this season at least. Source? His father who confirmed the same to me on Friday. This "going to Fulham" has been around for some time, and I mean months. Adam and his Agent have no knowledge or approach. Yesterday just before the match one of my sporadic sources (he told me about the Molyneau signing before it was announced) said he had heard Surman was going on loan to Fulham with Baird coming here on loan in return. Having spoken to Drew's dad only a few minutes before, I was able to put him right on that rumour. Pretty good sources, would you not agree. Of couse someone might come in with an offer that Saints feel they cannot turn down and if it means first team football in the Premership for Drew or Adam, may be they would go but they are not thinking about that at the moment. They feel they have unfinished business with Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me think about Theo's Dad, who was thought to be so pro Saints and his kid's development that he believed that the best place for him was to stay and rebuff Arsenal. Think he even said so.

Thanks for this WS If we can get daily (hoping he is still going to be good enough and injury free) he will make our defence much stronger as will Baird should he come home. Keeping Adam and Drew and also getting Saga back we will look like we have a pretty strong team. Question then will be can JP turn things around? I am guessing there will be a hatfull of managers that could work wonders with this team -----------KD------------ Baird--Perry--Daily--Skacel -----Morgan--Drew------- Lallana-------------Holmes -----------BWP----------- ----------Saga----------- or --------------KD---------------- Baird----Perry----Daily----Skacel Lallana--Morgan---Drew---Holmes -----------BWP---Saga---------- Add Euell into the mix and some of the kids coming through which IMO are good enough but need to be introduced allot slower than they are I think on paper we have a playoff team. if only huh.

I can only assume it must be some sort of bi-metallic corrosion problem, or Galvanic corrosion problem as you will. I can only guess that there must be some sort of problem between the stainless steel washers and the mild steel used in construction, although I haven't noticed any. Bloody dis-similar metals.
