    James does seem to be a bit more mature than his age would suggest. The thing is though, George would of known he wasn't allowed to comment on anything or tell anyone until it's confirmed on the site. I know people that know him and they say he's the type that thinks he's something special. Hopefully, though, he grows up.

    Wouldn't be happy to see him go unless we had a better replacement, especially to a competitor. He looked good last season

    Suggestion on SaintsWeb is Jason asked for a move (loan or buy) due to family reasons, and family reasons alone.

    SFC have obliged.

    A friend of mine suggested the headline 'Poo Pants Puncheon to Palace'

    Got a nice ring to it

    I vaguely remember him thanking Nicola and the club for helping him with some family stuff.
    I don't confess to know about him and his personal circumstances, but if his children live in south London and he wants to be more active in their lives then this could be an ideal opportunity as well as increasing his chances of 1st team football

    I'll be really disappointed if this is true. He is one of our bigger goal threats, and can make a real impact off the bench. That said, if he has requested to leave for family reasons then that's fair enough I suppose.

    There were apparently comments from Puncheon at the back end of last season saying that he played less due to family reasons and that the club had been really good with him throughout this time, giving him time out of training and being generally understanding. It was about the time his wife gave birth. Maybe that's what this is about.

    Either way. It's seemingly prompted by something in his family life and if that's the case then all the best to the guy and thanks for his efforts.

    (It's refreshing to be saying goodbye to Jason in that manner, if this is his goodbye)

    Didn't I predict this at some point? I mean it was a total guess but still.

    If he wants to go to London for personal reasons, then the best of luck to him. This could add credence to the Sinclair rumour.

    Hope all is well. He certainly is a character within the group and a good player at this level. Will be disappointed to see him go after his comeback and superb season last year. Seemingly it wasn't Poch's choice to let him go, so maybe another winger might come in.

    I been thinking about this error that has occurred, I have written on young George and been keeping an eye on him.

    George cleans puncheon boots so I can see where it's come from and without thinking he has posted this.

    Okay his accountable and responsible for this, but to say he has done this to draw attention to himself or deliberately . ? Sir he does not need to draw attention to himself . He has never done this before we have checked his social media comments.

    This is a good lad a generous lad who for the last 12 months has been coaching a local Hythe/Dibden junior team after training.Wednesday nights and Friday nights he has a love for football . And might I say the only youth player to coach after hours out of our Academy. That I'm aware off.

    So he is putting something back in to coaching children.

    Now it's your opinion that's fine,that's what forums are for. People who criticise kids and say awful things about them I have to wonder what is your real motive.

    So Saints will discipline him may be let him go, it's a lesson in life . He will learn and move forward. He has made an honest mistake.

    Shame to see him go ( if he does )
    He showed real guts and maturity when he came back to saints after his spat with the don, played some great football and his connection with clyne is fantastic on the wing. Wish him all the best.
