Chaplow will join the saints but its not for 350k its for 50k and that's come from the chairman at the fans foroum lastweek(0)(0)

 

 02 Dec 2010 23:47:52
Charlie Austin may be set for a January move to Reading.

Going the other way will be Nicholas Bignall and David Mooney (both are currently on loan, but as these are not season-long loans they can be cancelled in case they sign a permanent deal elsewhere).

Swindon are also looking at Baba Tchagouni, who is a Togoese goalkeeper and a personal friend of their striker Thomas Dossevi and fellow Togoese striker Backer Aloenouvo.(1)(1)

 

 02 Dec 2010 23:40:16
Southampton will look to sign Richard Chaplow from Preston North End in January for a fee of around £350,000. Preston's Manager Darren Ferguson doesn't want him at the club and has told him that to his face. The Club want a fee that would just pay off his wages.

Saints could also sign current League One's Top goalscorer Gary Madine from Carlisle for about £800,000. Nigel Adkins wants a proven goalscorer at this level and Madine fits that bill.

Ryan Harley is also being lined up for Saints as they contact Exeter City about his services and how much they want for him.

Promising youngster and Huddersfield star Anthony Pilkington is another name on Adkins' wishlist for January.

Huge Budget for Nigel Adkins in January: £4,000,000(0)(1)

Here is what I hear, mostly regarding Scottish football.
Aberdeen's first choice for new manager is Billy Stark. Reports of Gordon Strachan wide of the mark but it is thought Stark may rebuff their advances as Aberdeen is seen as a death sentence for manager's!
Kris Boyd's days at Boro are numbered. He was offered back to Rangers in an amazing £3m deal where Rangers would pay £1m over next 3 seasons, ONLY if they qualified for group stages! Meaning that if eg, they didn't qualify next season, they would not pay that year's instalment. Rangers said NO CHANCE. The player is not wanted by Rangers OR BORO. Most likely Turkey is his next stop. Other ex old firm players and Lee Miller offered back, Celtic said no to McManus and Flood but McDonald a possibility, depending on fee. Boro wish to keep Barry Robson and Kevin Thomson.(5)(3)

The lastest rumblings is that there are several players who have been mentioned that want to go to Newcastle and yes this does include Steve Ireland, on loan, as he wants to get a regular place and work with Carrol. I can not however see Santa Cruz coming to SJP. This week will also see Steven Taylor turn down moves to Spurs and Liverpool to stay at Newcastle but possibly only until the summer. Now that he has some match fitness, Taylor is confident that he will keep his place and both he and Newcastle will listen to offers in the summer AFTER he has signed a new contract. This will benefit both player and club but much of this will depend on Ashley's plans for the future of the club and what players are to remain and arrive at the club.

Emile Heskey (currently unavailable for Aston Villa) looks as though his time with the Premier League club is over. Gerard Houllier has expressed concern over the strikers place in Villa's starting XI and with the recent January transfer window approaching thinks the former England international will desire first team football. There was speculation that Heskey may return to The Walkers after his departure from Wigan but nothing formal was agreed. Martin O'neil revived Heskey's career at Villa but left unexpectedly prior to the start of the '10/ '11 season leaving him having to prove himself to new blood. He has hinted to Sky Sports reporters before that he would not rule out a move back to his hometown club of Leicester.(31)(11)

Charlie Austin accepts the inevitable. Seen house hunting in Burnley last weekend. he stated that his preferred clubs would be Leeds or Hull in the championship and of course any Prem club showing interest but now accepts the deal is done with the Clarets. Figures mentioned are around 1.2 million but yet to be confirmed.

Ok - a few things:

1) It has not been stated anywhere in the Wiltshire Media that Charlie is being sold. Is Charlie being sold against his wishes? Is this a 'Chatham House' deal by Swindon Town? If so, Messrs Fitton and Wilson have stabbed the fans in the back and betrayed Charlie and his team-mates.

2) Do you have definitive proof that Charlie has been in the Burnley/ Lancashire area? A photograph will suffice. If not, what evidence can you offer? I'm not saying that I doubt you, but proof will validate your statement whereas if you are just saying things you've heard (or made up) then people will not be as 'receptive'.

I find it hard to believe that Charlie would want to move miles away from beautiful Wiltshire to a northern hole (sorry, but I lived in Burnley for four months and the place makes Afghanistan look hospitable!) and I cannot see that the club would willingly sell him for anything under £2.5m.

Swindon are not in debt, the board run a tight ship and we don't need the money. We have five millionaires on the board of directors (including Andrew Black who part-owns Betfair) so we're doing well financially. If Swindon don't go up next season, then Charlie will probably go - however I can see him going to Nottingham Forest (Stuart Pearce rates Charlie, and has let David Pleat know about him) in the summer if they bid over £2m and send players to Swindon in exchange.(11)(18)
