    Guys....I know that things are quiet and you are bored but is it worth getting yourself taken off the site for? Just don't post if you have nothing to say about football. We understand that you would like something to happen but it isn't fair just to spoil a thread just because you feel like it. You have been warned!!!

    The mods definitely take their "job" too seriously.......... Unfortunately we have to.........and we will do. We are not prepared to jeopardise the whole Saints site because a few of you choose to try and spoil things. We have hundreds of fans to cater for not just a few.

    Seeing as your average King is probably terrible at football, this is probably quite accurate

    Worst nightmares!!!!

    Just being released on twitter @ stokes end that we are finalizing on a deal for Upson!
    I never rated him 5-6 years ago and now he is older,slower and even worse.
    Hoping this is not true but as it's stoke's end one would think it might have legs?

    An experienced CB is what we need. However, I have been telling anyone who is willing to listen and a few that aren't, that Saints are not interested in ageing experienced pros but are trying to build an exciting young team. I hope Nicola isn't going to make me look daft!!

    Upson would be a good squad player. Pretty certain he wouldn't be first choice.

    Scored more goals than Rooney at the World Cup. He must be good.

    Upson was an England regular until recently, I think he could do a job for us, provided his wages are reasonable. Though as has been said, he probably wouldn't start every game.

    Upson is very experienced and could be useful providing his attitude is right and his wages are reasonable. We don't want to make a habit of these sorts of signings, but a bit of experience here and there goes a long way.

    I imagine WHU will take to the prem with ease this coming season, Sam is adding to an already good squad, & money seems to be little problem.

    I wonder how much Green is looking for, if he rejected their £50k a week offer. Mind-blowing.

    Take it as you like but my two little ones have football training every Friday and the coach is somehow connected to Saints. He reckons we have asked Celtic for Hooper. Trouble being they are asking for £8m.
