Re: The generic transfer thread

Stooper Ramirez to Soton is a real coup


Where have Southampton got all this money from? Ramirez and Rodriguez combined is almost £20m!

Re: 2011/12 SEASON BETTING THREAD

Stoke at 7/1 to go down I think is a very good bet. Sliding towards the back end of last season and with no notable additions I really think they'll struggle.

As for tomorrow, I've gone for Arsenal, QPR, Birmingham, Sheffield Utd, Swindon and Rotherham all to win.

Re: The generic transfer thread

Think Arsenal have done the right thing. Let's face it RVP has always been a good player but he's never set the world alight until last season. Refusing to sign a new contract and with 1 year to go £20+m is a good price. The arrival of Podolski, Giroud and Cazorla have made Arsenal a stronger side p...

Re: Rumour - Nobody Else

Pretty sure Seol and Sodje were the only 2 we brought in before the season started. The we brought in DLC, Mate and Bikey before the summer window shut and then in January we got Dubes, Halford and Bennett.

I think anyway.

Re: Rumour - Nobody Else

BMcD has said that currently RFC have 23 of their 25-man squad and that Gunnarson may therefore have a place - although he is also being talked about as an addition to the coaching side. If he does - 24 , still one more place to fill. If he becomes a coach - still 23 AND two more places to fill! WH...

Re: Should we sign any of the Rangers players?

RockheadRumple Sone Aluko is among one of the players refusing to sign a 'New Rangers FC' contract. For free I think he'd definitely be worth it.

Re: Players salaries/bonuses

Just a thing on the £1k a point bonus thing. If I've read it correctly then the 18 players in the match day squad gain a bonus of £1k per point, right? How about our sub keeper? If (which has happened this season) McCarthy/Andersen don't play a single minute but they are on the bench do they end up ...

Re: England squad...

I'm a fan of this counter-attacking 4-4-2 that Roy seems like he's going to go for, its similar to what our Brian has done over the last two seasons. However I think the players that Roy is going for in this system is where our problems lie. The counter-attacking 4-4-2 requires two central midfielde...

Re: Premiership 2012/13

Far too early to predict. Four teams in the league are yet to have a manager and another three (Norwich, Swansea, Wigan) are having their managers linked to positions at some of them clubs.

I'll be back on August 1st to give my predictions.

Re: Played like West ham?

I KNOW how good the stats look, but I still maintain we rarely played well, and it was just "our time" the way things fell for us and some luck Just look at the actual games. (My point BTW is we need a LOT of strengthening to avoid doing a Derby) We started 2012 really poorly A (Pos 06) 1...

Re: Play offs thread

Depends, West Ham's tactics are to go out and score as many as they can in the first 10-15 minutes and if they can manage to get 1 or maybe 2 in that time then it will probably be theirs. However if Blackpool can keep them out then they've got every chance. Whoever wins them first 15 minutes wins th...

Re: Blackburn / Venky's

I think the fans criticsim of Kean was harsh and it clearly didn't help the team in any way. Had they given their full backing then who knows? It would have taken 3 more wins over the whole season to stay up. Having said that 13 wins from 58 in the league since he took over simply isn't good enough....
