Reading other forums is probably the best thing about a big new signing.



PS The disciplinary record comments are fair, he's racked up a few reds in his time. Hopefully that won't continue, to be fair you get a lot more cards in Italy than here.
 
Amusing to see how many teams think they can steal Jay Rod at a bargain price because of this...

I went to KUMB and they were...complimentary. The world no longer makes sense.
 

Saints went in to admin 4 years ago, think the people that then bought Coventry were going to buy them. But then a billionaire saw that Saints represented a great opportunity. Cheap to buy, decent location, away from media attention. One team city. Fans, local media totally backing them. It just works.

That said. If you look at Coventry, Portsmouth, then it could so easily have been Southampton, in their positions.

I'm impressed by this common sense reaction. It is clearly piddling a few of them off though.
 
A few of them have quite valid points - mainly how is all this spending going to sit in with the Financial Fair Play ruling? I trust Cortese and the gang to balance the books, but it's still interesting.
 
I wonder what Arsenal fans are thinking that we have spent well over £30million in this window and they have spent zilch.

Well our wage bill is probably under the £52m/year threshold meaning we're only limited by the rule that we can't make more than a £15m loss over three years (unless we're getting funding from the owner in which case the limit is £105m; yeah, pretty "fair" huh)

Should be okay then... right? As long as we don't go all guns blazing and spend as much next summer.
