    I dread the reactions from some people if he struggles to adapt to the English game...

    Just read last few pages (don't you people ever sleep).

    So far, no pics of new signings...be great if they do a joint one with recent signings.
    Ramirez has the skills, let's hope he has the character to be a team player (if goes through).
    How many twitter confirmations equal a mention on OS?:)
    Lawrenson, when talking about our owners, said we were now owned by ML's daughter (in the same disbelieving tone as you'd reserve for ML's dog).
    How can Saints Forum argue about biscuits? There are only custard creams<doh>

    No, most seem cool...sitting back smoking cigarettes.

    Facing the final day of the transfer window with the same nervous excitement as I feel on a match day - lets hope we get a great result with some last minute signings!
    Come on NC, you can do it

    Would be nice to have an unexpected signing today as well as 'you know who'. Getting greedy now.

    I would expect there to be quite a few signing announced today as Nicola has sent out that DVD to quite a few players across the world. My understanding is that many of them have already friended him on Facebook, so I wait with confidence. In the DVD we trust.:)

    When I saw Channonfodder had added a comment, I thought I was in for a slap for mentioning twitter and biscuits, but (phew) got away with it:)

    Surely the blasphemy is the belief generated that this young Uruguayan is the Saints' Messiah? Reading over the last few days, they'll be flooding the pitch at SMS to allow him to walk on water; fishes and loaves will be distributed at half time and the post match party will be fueled by wine that was formerly water.

    If we do sign him, can we all remember that he ain't going to win games on his own?!

    I agree that some people have got a little carried away and think that signing him automatically means we will stay up but on the other hand, from what we have seen of him, his reputation and who he is being chased by he could well be a different class of player to anyone we have seen in the last 10 years at Saints.

    Absolutely not Fran!

    Slapping is against the forum rules, and anyway there is always the "custard cream" exemption clause.:)

    Going to stick my neck out and say that Ramirez will be announced before noon.

    Has to be registered by then to be eligible for the united game. Of course they could register him and not make an announcement until later but people will know then.

    He certainly won't start but if he is registered in time he could be on the bench.
