    What else did they say? A work colleague of mine saw a lot of him while covering the Championship and says he’s strong, fast, hard-working and direct. Plus he’s a more than able finisher.

    Sounds good!

    Having seen how many of our Championship squad rose to the challenge of playing in the Premier League, I am more than happy for Saints to be pursuing young players from that level.
    According to the Mirror, an £8 million bid has been rejected, with other clubs sniffing around, including Wolves. Let’s hope he wants to come south for some sunshine.

    According to Wiki, one of his middle names is 'Everton'.

    Signing young players from the Championship etc is excellent. Some of our best buys have come from doing that. We've gotten away from doing that in recent seasons, so its great to see us being linked with more promising young players.

    Or he could ring Andrew Surman and discuss what Wolverhampton has to offer ...

    For those not aware, allegedly when AS went to Wolves he and his partner lived outside Wolverhampton but his partner apparently asked for them to move into the town itself. It is further alleged that she was then upset as for some reason she didn't enjoy living there either. So presumably she was delighted when he made a move - to Norwich (<doh>). I have no information on whether the relationship withstood this episode.

    Players do go back, but it's rare. Channon did it, but he was a fan. Shame. I'd love to see JR back

    Shame as we could swap with Sam as they know him already.

    Apparently Burnley are going to rival us for Adams. Youd think if he knows of Ralph and the recent changes at thr club he would fancy us.

    Or if you combine Rodriguez and Lambert you get Jaykie Rodbert. :)

    Has he ever seen Burnley? Can he speak Burnley? Come on, he'd be chuffing mad to sign for them.

    Yeah, saw that. Could have been a whole lot worse, only a couple of miles away...

    Seems like Reed is having another very good season in the Championship. Blackburn fans are very keen on him. He seems like a Hasenhuttl type of player but he's 24 now and CM is probably our strongest position. I'm sure Ralph will want to have a look at him in the summer, but a decision needs to be made. We either keep and use him, or it's time to sell so he can get on with his career.

    We're a bigger club with far better facilities and we'll pay a higher salary. Our football is going to be better than theirs, too.

    Plus, Ocean Village > Burnley. And not far from London. (appreciate he's not a London boy but it does tend to help)

    I'd fear for us if we started missing out on our targets to Burnley..
