Could this be the new Ross replacement? 

Have not seen any transfer rumors about Ross new destination.

Is he definitely not playing for Saints again? Does he want to be at SFC? Would we offer a new contract?

Wouldn’t be shocked to see Stewart end up at Boro.

Slightly worried it means Scienza is off.

Hope you've missed out the word 'if' Hypo.

Been watching some of the Preston goals from last season. He’s that great option to play off Larin. Got great speed plus is an assist machine.

10 goals, 8 assists.

That's how I see it. If anything, he's a replacement for Archer - though I hope he doesn't turn out to be an Archer Mark 2.

Probably reckoning he can get a decent payday without Russ hanging around for long.

Dobbin played as a second striker the entire season for Preston, while the season before, West Brom played him out wide.

The 9-0 is starting to feel like some sick black magic with karmic consequences. Just like how Germany are destined to never win a knockout round, Leicester are forced to continue buying former Saints.

I think he offers something very different to Scienza and Azaz.

If we're honest, Scienza faded towards the end of the season probably due to the fact he was knackered and sides had worked out just to stick 2 men on him. Azaz we've seen can go missing and blows hot and cold.

This entirely regarding Leo Scienza.

He is a decent player but my god he’s overrated by so many.

He faded massively at times last season, if you want to get out the Championship you need consistency and sometimes someone who brings something different.

Now there's something I have given no thought to for over 40 years, but now I'm strangely intrigued to find footage of. I thought that zaniness might well have been some psychedelic mushroom trip of my teenage years, but it turns out it was just a tv show from a time before that. Side note, that horse had some moves! 

A reet load of shite it was.

I loved the LND. But talk about physical presence is nonsense, that is the one thing he didn't really bring despite his height. While Larin has masses of physical presence

Dobbin, hope he's not the donkey of some book of my infancy.

Leicester love an ex-Saints player, Ings gone there too.

Smallbone linked but also linked to Millwall where he was on loan before a serious hamstring injury and WBA so you think he’d go to one of those unless there’s some serious beard-whispering.

You would think £9m is being dropped on THE position Solak talked about with Alfie/Blackmore.

Ure making an interesting link there. Let’s see if the interest is Sirius or not.

Agreed. Archer off it would seem then as rumoured.

You’d think so regardless of this signing.

I mean the only thing Archer taught us is you need to go deep into the squad at times.

Archer will be off to Preston.

He's the kind of player other managers/scouts will have seen and liked and his struggles here will be put to one side. The issue is how much we would want for him. Most Championship sides have no money for transfer fees.

After Devine, where have Preston got the cash from?  Would be surprised if they can afford his wages.

Peter Ridsdale is in talks to sell to Amr Zedan on behalf of the Hemmings family, I think - but don't think anything is officially agreed or going through just yet

I'm thinking 4 million at least.

Whats the status of Charles ? I guess hes almost out the door if we are buying someone as we dont have that much cash flow around.

Has charles been clocked on any of the pre season media ?

Charles is still on holiday, his break started later than most as N. Ireland played several late WC warm up friendlies

Don't get the McCarthy to Leicester thing. I think he's a decent shot stopper but a Russball me to you to me-er in the penalty area he ain't.

Bild reporting that Saints are interested in Justin Njinmah, 25 year old forward from Werder Bremen

Yeah I agree. I can only assume he’s going there to be back up keeper

Cool. May mean that Dobbin isn't the Stewart replacement.
