    I don't really give a **** about spelling etc, long as people read and understand it that's fine. Not everyone can spell amazingly and alot have conditions that effect it as well.

    I'm really confused. I see your point about people being overly critical of your writing, but surely you can see that this sentence is so poorly constructed that it can only have been written by someone who learnt English from reading google translations of articles about Gaston Ramirez. Or you're on the wind-up, in which case fair enough.

    Clarity is the key, but that is where punctuation comes in. The purpose of punctuation is to make your meaning clear. I am quite good at it, but not so good that I can't be corrected. The secret is to read out loud what you have written...any pause should have a punctuation point. On a forum, there is room for more casual language, but too many of the young write in the style known as streams of consciousness and it becomes almost unreadable.

    Can't be bothered to backtrack through pages of punctuation squabbles. Are we any nearer/more informed? Or is it still stalemate?

    My guess is they are all having Sunday off. It will all kick off again tomorrow. This week could be torture!

    It keeps us all on our toes. There's nothing like a good 'will-he-won't-he (sign)' saga.

    @Jayrodfan2:

    @reluctantnicko @crucialguy @adkinsisourking when did u last speak to your saints source al ? Does he still think Ramirez will sign ?


    Alan Nixon:

    @Jayrodfan2 @crucialguy @adkinsisourking Yes. Said last night about extra up front cash demand. No biggie.

    I don't want Nixon to say that extra money is no biggie. I want to hear Nicola say it.
