    I think a lot of people would be a lot more easy going if Les came out and just acknowledged we need a striker, not any info into who etc, but just said yes we need someone . That would just lower the heart rate a tad.

    Yeah, I agree with a number 10, for sure, and I'd like to see another striker come in. I think we're okay for wide players though, and I always considered Mane a wide player.

    Yeah I would prefer a number 10, and think (hope) this will be our big signing of the Summer. A striker and wide player could be the same player. I'm quite excited about Redmond, wanted us to sign him for a few seasons now.

    Glad you got your shirt sorted out Romsey.

    I think it's been an exciting window because I remember plenty of Windows when we've sold five of our best players, rather than sign five of our best up to new contracts. Pretty pleased and excited about that this time around :)

    Safe trip back.

    Don't think he's in the business of lowering fans' heart rates.

    You do realise that Shane Long is bionic?


    Ps. Lots of people came on here last November saying we were **** and sack the manager... :)

    Why advertise what we are looking for and add an extra zero on the end of the price?

    It would be a gamble. It won't be a mistake until it goes wrong :)

    Yes there is. It is in Britannia Road, Northam, Southampton. All the top teams shop there.

    Isn't Redmond the same age as Mane was when we signed him? Maybe he'll be as rubbish as I was reading at the time on here, that Mane was.

    That's why I said imo :)

    I'll phrase it another way, it would be a HUGE gamble that we don't really need to take.

    Indeed. One of the greatest benefits of signing Pied is that we'll surely never have to see Yoshida playing RB ever again.

    True. Not sure about value for money though :)

    1. They may not think so.

    2. If they do think that, then they are not going to stick a 20% premium on by telling the world. This isn't the Sullivan & Gold Cabaret show you know!
