    Nixon doesn't appear to have a clue. His story has changed so many times.

    Last Sunday I was sat in the car reading that Martin O'Neil's Sunderland were set to bid for Jay - written by....... Alan Nixon.

    He does know some things such as the bids and one being accepted, and when Jay returned from holiday but I think that's it.

    He's just capitalising on the lull/silence by churning out stories to keep people buying the paper/visiting the site.

    Yeah he is a knob, but a very clued-up knob with lots of info on what Everton are doing.

    We had a deadline for Thursday, then Friday, then there was no deadline at all. Then he had a medical, then he was just in talks.

    He's hit the end of his knowledge on this deal.

    Journo writes evening article offering more news on otherwise quiet transfer story. Everton, Southampton and Burnley fans buy newspaper. Not that hard really, they should give me a job.

    Get writing! I just think as we have said, he is capitalising on the lack of public developments on this deal.

    Matt Phillips was part of Holloway's 3rd choice team that played us in the cup. :p

    Fingers crossed for Jay Rod later today/monday!

    That may be true, but I estimate that by the third season in the PL, we'll be expecting to beat sides like Everton. Saints are aiming to go places. Everton are going nowhere.

    There was no deadline.

    Just media sources trying to heighten the drama... <doh>

    Where has it actually been said 'ANYWHERE' that there was one...?

    I have vowed to never again set eyes on the Daily Mail, due to their constant made up bull. Naldo looks like leaving Bremen and returning home, so may not be worth any effort. However Bruno Manga from L'orient would be awesome, not Brazilian but would do the job!

    was really hoping to snatch Nick Powell, but looks like he prefers to sit on the united bench

    I go to bed and this blows up. If he doesn't sign for us, he is obviously rubbish and we didn't want him anyway<whistle> I want players who are thrilled to sign for us...no single player is bigger than this club. Let's just wait and see...Saints fans are used to waiting.

    But does Alan Nixon know when he returned from holiday, BBC article Claim he returned on Thursday and Alan Nixon claimed he returned on Monday. Also Alan Nixon said he would prefer Everton if they come in, funny how he now says Everton want him.
