Bazunu going to Stoke. Loan with option to buy. Thank fuck for that. 

[HarvSFC]

We stitched them up with Gunn on loan previously. Bazunu's worse.

Reports say that Rasmus' pitch was that 'the Championship is more fun than the Premier League anyway'

Might be the first time a parent club has put a 'must play against parent club' clause in the contract instead of a 'cannot play against parent club' clause

I agree with Turkish we need to move on from signing former players, Alot of people romanticise about a second coming but it never works out.... 

Mick Channon?

What striker do we think we are going to be getting to replace Downs?

Stoke go from having a GK with the best stats in the league to having one with the worst.

There's no way we'll sign Ronaldo.

 

 

Oh you meant Ross Stewart.

Proven goal scorer at this level, good age and quite tall. Any club with a bit of money should be all over that. Wishful thinking I know but maybe he's homesick. I'd have thought he could do better than the MLS.

Only 3 teams have scored more than Saints, only 2 have conceded more. This indicates to me that a striker is not the end of the pitch we need to be addressing.                  
 

 21 of our 38 goals came in a 8 match spell in November/December, outside of that spell for the other 18 games we average less than a goal per game.                                                   We definitely need a focal point up front. Someone who can hold the ball up and bring others into play. 

I still think most of the players are no more than average for this division. …despite all those shouting that it was the best squad in the league managed by an idiot. Well we changed the idiot and not a lot else has changed.

Strange one if that comes off, players of his calibre go there to retire, not play when still in their peak.

Just a loan then. They haven’t got £8m they can shell out on a keeper.

Maybe the option is some oatcakes in exchange for a packet or two of crisps.
