    Sadly its not true, but, I wanted to

    A) Give the hacks something to write in the transfer gossip column as they seem a tad bored at present (you know this is in Mondays Sun/Mirror/Star now!).
    B) Take some of the limelight from our ref-gate allegations (which have become rather tedious).
    C) I wouldn't mind the lad, bet he's not half the hot head Dani seems to be!*

    One down side, he's cup tied, but that should knock another mill off!


    *great talent, but very hard to control.....not worth the grief if I'm being brutally honest.

    Great result today, very pleased after a difficult week. <ok>

    I'm very glad it isn't true to be honest! £9.3 million is far too much for him.

    After we let him go as a youngster. We missed that one. So, off the top of my head, that's Kevin Phillips, Dennis Wise, Danny Ings...

    Can't think of any more. Was Sam Vokes ever in a Saints Academy..?

    I know it's not the point but Rhodes should be in the Prem, someone like Villa/Stoke/Hull would stay up comfortably with him.

    Feels good to get through all those games even though we haven't got too many more points. Bit of a rest and some players back from injuries will see normal service resumed. And we can get back to the important business of avoiding silly season rumours/refgate.

    I like him. I wanted him instead of Sharp, though Sharp was my second choice. That goal Jutkiewicz scored for Motherwell v Hibs was just orgasmic.

    Yup, there youth team train and study at brockenhurst college can't rember seeing Ings but Vokes sticks out. I remember he was an absoulute tank and all the girls would always swarm over to them in free periods.
