Dan, I like you and I won't get into a tit for tat. Wish I hadnt posted now. I'll be big enough to say that and move on.

I don't particularly understand what you mean by a "tit for tat" especially considering I thought my description of this thread's creation certainly had merit, but fair enough.

Anyway mods, can we please get rid of this pathetic excuse for a thread now? As has already been shown this morning (shock horror) the actual rumour thread is already getting back on topic (as always happens).

EDIT: and just as I post that it gets merged. Thanks.
 
Beddy, can I propose that we sticky a social thread on the saints page. It can be fun having some off topic banter and then anyone wanting to drift in there can. I would myself from time to time and it would keep other stuff at out of other topics: if people wanted to.

I agree

This is what several people have been asking for for a while now... It's only one thread, it wouldn't hurt anybody. If people don't want to read off topic stuff, fine, don't go into it, nobody gets hurt. I don't see why it'd be a bad idea on any level.

Agree - those who want it can search it, and those of us who don't we don't have to see it

I maybe missed requests for that. It would be a good idea, as long as it is different to the rumour thread.
 
sort of on topic, paulo gazzaniga sounds like an italian version of Gascoigne

Tbh I could only see him being brought in as a #3 anyway. With some of the other names we've heard he doesn't seem like the kind of high profile Premier League standard keeper Adkins has been chasing (eg Butland, Schmeichel)

Thats what we need though Dan IMO. A good experienced back-up and a youngster with lots of potentail. Perhaps Gillingham could take Forecast. Mad dog could kick him into shape!

But Butland is both a good enough backup and carries buckets of potential!!

We should get that smith guy the entire fifa world signs on a free :D

The default arena keeper, sounds solid :p
 
Would love Butland and I see Brum have already brought in a new keeper. Let's hope it happens. Still need a third though. An injury and a suspension and you''re looking at Tommy v Rooney etc. Doesn't bear thinking about!

Decides to sensibly start a new one?! There's no need to start a new one, people weren't stopping actual rumours being posted in the old one, there was just literally nothing going on so it went off topic for a few hours. Hotbovril decided to take a particular moral stand so, in a scream and cry for attention (hence the picture), built his soapbox in the form of a new thread. What purpose was there of making a new thread other than to look down upon a couple of hours of off topic conversation last night and try to assert his superiority over everybody who dares to waver from specific subject matter (of which, last night, there was none)? The rumour thread has not been carried on into this morning except by people who fancy a moan. You can guarantee, like literally every other time this has happened, as soon as a new rumour comes up then it'll go back to being the way it was. This thread is nothing more than an arrogant stand to prove how much more mature he is than everybody else - and clearly by your comment of "the immaturity is shining through", you're choosing to go the same way. I expected better of you than to attempt a slant at my age.

Dan I'm not going to get involved in a slanging match but I can assure you than I have no need to cry for attention, neither am I arrogant or desperate to prove anything to anyone, particularly my maturity. I started a new thread to draw attention to the pages devoted to the baiting of a poster last night. If I was some kind of coward, I would have just moaned to the mods but frankly, when things are taken too far, I'm not the kind who'll shy away from saying something myself. Last night, several posters were out of order. This is different to having several pages off topic when nothing is happening. Out of order is out of order and I will say it as I have done previously when someone was ridiculously accused of racism on here.
 
Palace journalist says fee and package agreed, Palace feel Saints a good move for Clyne. He has held talks and no deal is yet complete.

This journalist spoke to the Palace owner yesterday so reliable info.

I feel by not actually being involved you missed out on the feeling of the night. It wasn't a mob attack, he was taking it well and having fun with it. Nobody was getting wound up or aggressive, nobody was acting violent or malicious, it was just (probably quite extreme) pisstaking, which nobody involved really seemed to mind. The "victim" AdamBanana said himself he'd be fine with even a thread created for him because "he's a man" (or something along those lines). However if he was clearly distressed by it then it'd be an issue. I can see how, from an outside perspective, it'd look like it, but there's a reason he's now banned and nobody else is.

I'm just hoping we don't get many more transfers that **** about like the Buttner one, what a waste of everybody's time that is. Thankfully this seems more straightforward.
