    Hoping the chambers rumours are billshit, but in fairness we can't turn down 16mil.

    Is what I would be saying if we hadn't sold ****ing everyone else. Christ, never in a million years did I think this window would be this bad.

    Also, since when has the signature limit been under 10 KB? I spent 2 minutes slaving over a hot GIMP file for nothing?

    Remember the panic when the ITK guy on Saintsweb said we'd lose 2, maybe 3 players this window? How I'd bite your hand off for that now!

    You can believe in yourself as much as you want; tycoons who buy football clubs either take control for themselves or hire their mates. We're probably worth around £200m now so whoever buys us is gonna be a nutter.

    Yeah exactly. If only 1-2 had gone, £16 million is a hell of a lot for a 19 year old. It's now more of a case of when will it stop, and how do you now stop the likes of Schneiderlin forcing a move?

    *angry drum* fed up with the negativity. This forum used to be my safe haven...you all used to give me my sanity. Recently there has been too much negativity.... Far too much. Can we please all just take a step back and enjoy the ride. At least we aren't swing Lowe off the Itchen bridge any more.

    The positivity will return tenfold once the exciting 'ins' start outdoing the depressing 'outs'.

    So in about 2 weeks.

    Knew about most the players a few months ago(through DTLW and people I talk to). Lambert was the surprise.

    I really hope you know something's in the pipeline beefy, we need quality signings quickly.
    Even I am getting negative with our current situation we need good news not listen to Jim White on sky saying who's leaving next...

    Particularly when you won't actually get around to spending it.

    Okay, rough calculations.

    Lambert - £4m
    Lallana - £20m
    Shaw - £28m
    Lovren - £20m
    Chambers - £16m

    £88m Total with Schneiderlin yet to probably go and take us well over £100m.

    Spent £18m ish on players in so far. There is not a chance in hell that we are going to spend another that kind of extra money in this window.

    That's not even taking into account the budget we'd have had without selling anyone.

    Be a nutter... Because they are very rich presumably; worth billions. Markus seemed ok. He did bring his mate in though :)
