    Heh, let me revise that: I wouldn't want six signings with a 50m or less warchest. That'd be all manner of Sunderland.

    Nah, prices in Scotland are escalating. On January 15th, we will unveil our haul of 73 Montenegrin tweens.

    Judging by his career since leaving Peterborough I'd say that was a fair bid.

    Agreed. Just don’t take it at face value. Who is saying it, what do they have to gain etc.

    Both camps are right here. Jeremy covers Arsenal a hell of a lot, and I'd say he's a respected journalist with a lot of integrity and who is very well-connected and very unlikely to be taken for a ride, especially by a club like Saints. He was at the Echo down here years back and he knows the landscape.

    Equally, he clearly has a source at board level at Saints and is very much 'in the loop' - but you have to remember someone is feeding him info and there is a pipeline. I mean, right now the person in charge of that pipeline must be very edgy... lots of spin, counter-spin and spin once more. They'd understandably be keen to keep things as 'under control' as possible. At least in the public eye.

    I remember everyone raving about him, was so glad we didn't get him.

    So what about the player from the French league, or the player that was at the training ground and looking at schools for his kids? Are they not signing? Or will we drag it out another 3 weeks?

    In Mopo2's second presser he said the priority is to find an Austin replacement as he would be out for at least two months minimum.

    If its not Balotelli I'm going to kick off to Tom levels. Him or Ibra playing for Saints would be incredible

    I really can’t believe you’re serious.

    I think Saintmagic is perfecting the art of the stealth wum in recent weeks.

    This was a poor effort though, 3/10.

    Not the kicking off part, but the rest is true. Balotelli and Ibra are two of my favourite players around atm. Wait is Berbatov still playing? If he is he would be my next go to, might be past it now though :embarrassed:

    Holy hell he is still playing, with the Kerala Blasters of the Indian Super League, a team that I somehow did not invent.
