Hahahaha, not quite. Probably jumping the gun considerably so as to look knowledgeable.
 
so as to look knowledgeable

Worth a tweet, I'd say, if only to break up a rather dull Friday morning and a bit more build up to the presser at 3.

Not sure I believe the 4 year deal bit. Seems a long deal for someone who is 29 next week.
 
So if he does sign we will have bought the 2nd and 4th top scorers in the Eredivisie last season. Sounds like good business to me even if the Eredivisie is dismissed by others as not really that good. We need to score more goals in games.

Also Pelle got as many assists as De Ridder so he must be awesome :)
 
I may be wrong but as the minutes drag by until 5pm Friday night, I think many Saints fans will settle for a bit of 'yellow' if it distracts from the tedium?
 
If this turns into a pun thread, I'll turn it into a Joe-gets-really-whiny-about-Pelle thread.

You've been warned.
