    apart from lower league Tottenham, when we struggled after he went off.

    you now need to edit the typing to say 15 not 16 players ;)

    I know most people disagree with me, but I just don't think Guly cuts it at this level. He may have shown glimpses of good play, but generally he's just not been that good. Don't get me wrong, I was a big fan last season and the season before that, but the squad has moved on and he's clearly not going to increase his ability like others have.

    Haha, I suspect poor Mr Do Prado would likely miss the target......(I like him really).

    Chambers will be back up rb soon. The rest can go, all but one aren't good enough on that list.

    Hammond should stay IMHO .

    Helped get us up last year , nearly got Brighton there this year , he should stay for another year , doubt he would want to though .

    Eh? He's out of contract isn't he? Why would Saints offer him a new one?

    Yeah, particularly as Poch seemed to prefer to use Yoshida and Cork ahead of him.

    Talking of Adkins, he released 6 players today:

    Simon Church
    Noel Hunt
    Jay Tabb
    Nicky Shorey
    Ian Harte
    Joseph Mills


    Something makes me think Adkins will sign a left-back...

    Nicky Shorey's a surprise. He'll be snapped up in no time, i'm sure.

    Love Hammond for what he did...especially that 1st goal in the Championship...but we are not a charity. He will never play again for us. Wish him all the luck in the world, but Saints have moved on too fast for him.

    Must've been quite a case of deja vu for Mills; second time he's had to go into Adkins' office and be informed that he's surplus to requirements.

    He's not really had the chance to prove himself though, has he? I think if he got a protracted run out in the side he could step up. Not sure he'll get it, as we're not short of talent either out wide or up front, but then that's what competition for places is all about. I think he'd excel in a similar role to Rodriguez, but then Jay's been consistently improving so Guly's unlikely to get selected in front of him as things stand. But things change.

    Moved on to fast for him Fran ?

    Where is the proof ? He wasn't given a chance.......

    I honestly feel he deserves another go ,but doubt he would accept it from us .........

    Sorry but Morgan, Cork, Davis and JWP are all much better than him. There's no room for him.

    Sadly Hammond, who has some talent, needs a tug to turn him round which will always be a problem in the Premier.

    Exactly. If I could wave a wand I'd make it possible for him to play in the PL with Saints.

    I agree...I would love Hammond to be good enough as he helped get us here, but, sadly, he's not. Deep inside, quite a few players must have known they would not be in the PL, but they still enjoyed being part of a promoted side...something they could be proud of.
