Anyone going to have a flutter on any signings today? Fellani to Man United is like 1/4 so a bit pointless
Saints have enquired to Blackpool about Tom Ince. Not expecting anyone in though. Anyone gonna guess who is going to leave us for where?
Aren't Spurs ahead on that one? Here are our players who are not in the first team - Aaron Martin Lee Barnard Jonathan Forte Tadanari Lee Billy Sharp Other than Sharp can we see any of the others leaving today? The loan window remains open after tonight so deals may be struck for them to go out on loan with Football League clubs later.
His father said yesterday that he needs to play and there is no point in him going to a big club who wouldn't play him.
For their sake I wish they would find permanent moves. Sharp and Lee should find good NPC clubs, Barnard Forte and Martin could get into a good L1 club. Disappointed we didn't get to see more of Lee, from his brief spell when he was fit he looked good.
I wish they would as well, it would be better for them and for the club but I think as many others have mentioned before the wages cause problems and loans where the other clubs contribute a % of the salary seems more likely. Better than nothign I suppose. Sharp is the exception I suppose, every Championship club should want him on their books.
Garath McCleary is being linked to "several PL clubs". Right now I wouldn't want him, as there as many, many better wide men out there. But if we haven't signed a wide man in 12 hours time, then I'd accept us taking a punt.
Reading in for Cameron Jerome, so that may affect their interest in Sharp. Odemwingie is off on his travels early apparently. Heading to Cardiff.
Not strictly Saints or deadline day related but Danny Butterfield has left Carlisle after signing on non-contract terms.
And by all accounts, that now frees up Borini to join Sunderland on loan. Can't decide if I rate Borini as a PL player or not (certainly not Liverpool quality though).
