Burnley are to move for defender Ryan Shotton in January, also the Clarets are to sign goalkeeper Alex Smithies.

Grant Holt to leave Norwich for Leicester for an undisclosed fee, at the beginning of the next transfer window. Being one of the clubs most saleable assets he will depart to increase the available transfer funds come January.
While some Norwich fans may be dismayed by the sale of the clubs talisman they aim to look pull off an even greater shock by signing striker Jermain Defoe, who's yet to claim a regular starting place this season at Tottenham.
Norwich to risk a big money deal in a bid to ensure goals after January, with the Norwich strikers (Holt, Martin, Morrison and the injured Vaughan) struggling to find good goal scoring form in the Premiership.
Although if Norwich are unable to guarantee Defoe's signature neither deal will proceed, until a suitable alternative is arranged.(4)(17)


Anybody else sick of hearing from Leicester fan's talking about signing more strikers.
What formation is Sven going to play 1-3-6 - get on with your homework and leave the rumours to the grown-ups.

Billy can't hit a barn door paynter looks set to join the rams initially on loan. But aidy white going nowhere. He's the best left back in the championship and the fastest. Leeds leeds leeds(11)(11)Paynter is not a championship player is League 1 maximum and had his best season with us (STFC) and playing with Charlie Austin but prior to joining us all his previous clubs he couldnt hit a barn door. He only moved to Leeds for the money but we all knew he wasnt a championship player and never will be but Leeds thought they were getting a good player at the time but we have been proven right so far.

Back to League 1 Billy and you will score again.He's decent but not the best or fastestYeah agreed, Paynter is rubbish, no-one in the Champ will take him in their right mind. Aidy has the potential to BE the best in the Champ, and he certainly has a turn of pace, but he's not better than say Paul Konchesky in terms of his defensive game. Still, a lot of room for him to improve, and he's meant to have agreed a new deal
wallyPlease please please let this be true....i am better than billy paynter get him off the payroll quick and aidy white needs a lot of work and improvement but that will come with game time and experience he is a great prospect

05 Oct 2011 22:03:55
adam lallana to qpr in january transfer window(16)(31)Would love it but very doubtfulGet real,if he was going to leave why on earth would he be interested in joining a
silly little club like QPR.
Southampton is where his heart is,he'll be
a star for Saints in the Premiership.Silly little club, i forgot Southampton are a mighty huge club.

Anyone in their right mind would choose QPR over Southampton

This coming from a fan that supports neither, just had to comment as the last comment was an absolute jokeSame old saint fans don't you know they are the biggest club in the universeHa ha Saints fan getting a backlash, let me think who would I rather play for a team who are having a good run in the Championship but could well slip down the table at any time or a Prem team in doing ok (except for a couple of shocking results) and are looking good to be there next season, no contest, not what is deamed a 'big club' but a club on the upSouthampton are a ma-hoo-sive club, they're only in the Championship to give their collective of world beaters a bit of a breather before they go on dominate the Premier League. Apparently Lalllalalalallalla is going to be "a star for Saints in the Premiership" let's not worry about a little thing called promotion eh? Let's just assume that they're going to go up, in fact, let's all laugh at the Southampton dreamers.Whats wrong with dreaming? I'm a Saints fan and there are some out there that get carried away, I admit, I'm shocked by how well we have started, we are in good position to get promotion, it could happen, who knows? As for Lallana he signed an extension to his contract in January and it would take a serious amount of money for Southampton to part with their prized player. We are not a selling club anymore, but everybody has a price and if it was a huge amount of money was offered, much, much more than what we got for Oxo, who knows? What I do is that Adam loves playing for Southampton and no offence to QPR fans, but it would have to be a club with Champions League football to offer to tempt him away.AL has had the oppotunity to go before, and to clubs with better potential than Queens Krap Rangers - he signed a new contract at the start of 2011 and Saints would only sell at an extortionate price, ala AoxoC.So if Saints can slip up and slide down the table,with no "shocking result's",who's to say that QPR won't slip up and find themselves in a relegation positition,after all premiership stalwarts you are not,who's deluded?Adam has a lot of loyalty to Saints, he is a saints supporter, saints gave him a life changing operation when he was younger and they have been key to his development.

I can’t see him going to QPR because they are not even proven in the Premiership. They may do well but it’s a big gamble. The only team I can imagine him wanting to go to would be Man U, and that is because they rarely buy players they don’t play

Saints may not be a massive club but they by far the biggest team in the area. QPR are just a small London club, small fish in a very large pond with wealthy investors trying to take a slice of Arsenal and Chelsea’s pie

People say that saints fans are arrogant, but we are just realistic. Currently we are top of the league.I must admit i cannot see adam lallana leaving southampton any time soon but i do think they will need to buy some good players in january as i feel that they are a 2 man team in LAMBERT and LALLANA, i no my mates keep saying 'we have really good players waiting to fill in if any players get injuries' but i very much doubt that, the owners need to put their money where their mouth is in january because its just a matter of time before injuries occur and it is a long old season in the championship.Lambert and Lallana are important player for us of course, but we are hardly a 2 man team, we have scored 34 goals in all copetitions Lambert and Lallana are responsible for 15 of them, the other 19 have been scored by 10 diffrent players, fans that dont watch us week in week out cant comment, anyway has'nt every team got there star players take Messi out of barca they would miss him, Rooney out of Man U you would miss him, Ronaldo out of real you would miss him, Liam Lawrence out of Portsmouth, OK maybe not everyone, Pompey are st with or without him, do i have to continue

 


05 Oct 2011 21:19:17
lcfc to sign beckham(12)(37)Correction... LCFC are TRYING to convince Beckham to join them as a player/coach. Sven is offering him a coaching role as he thinks it might tip the balance, Beckham is leaving the Galaxy soon and wants to play in the GB Squad.

As a Leicester fan, i know this is reality as Sven has been very vocal about his attempts to lure Beckham - BUT - it'll never happen in a month of sunday's! It's just not realistic, why on Earth would Beckham land in Leicester when Spurs would cut Bale's leg off to sign him?

Real rumour (although it's hardly a rumour once it's been confirmed) but no chance of happening.

 


05 Oct 2011 21:08:36
Victor chandler has had his offer accepted by N.D. Press release friday when N.D returns to his london home(5)(8)Total non-starter, Doughty is staying as owner - plus Victor Chandler is a tax exile and can only spend 60 days in the UK before he is hit for tax. The sponsorship deal will tide NFFC over until 2013, so ND doesn't need to sell the club yet. Forest aren't going to be put on the market until Summer 2012.

Ran into Mart Poom of all people at Gatwick last week and asked him about up and coming Estonian youth. He told me that young midfielder Joel indermitte of the national team is only 18 and is being closely scouted by Derby County on his recommendation and will likely be signed at the winter break.(1)(9)Of all people to bump into - imagine that - most people wouldn't even know what he looked likeTo be fair he is hard to missDont keep running into people it'll hurt.

05 Oct 2011 15:12:02
boro are to make an audacious bid to sign free agent mamadou diara who is a free agent who would be willing to go to a championship club after leaving monoco in the summer(18)(11)Stevenage Borough should sign him I think he'd be good for them.If he really is available, then there will be PL clubs who will get in first - Swansea wanted Senna at one point pre-season - Diarra is similar, and would fit well into their system. Old-pro vacuum cleaner, QPR, would be another possible destination. He would also improve Blackburn & Wigan. Alternatively, Bolton, Sunderland, Fulham or Newcastle may fancy a punt for the rest of the season on a player who could offer decent back up. I think one of the above would come in before he went to either Doncaster or Boro.

 


05 Oct 2011 15:06:23
Brentford are on the verge of signing Billy Clarke on loan until Christmas. The Blackpool striker was on loan with the Brentford outfit when they won the league 2 Championship and was highly regarded during his loan period.(11)(4)

 


05 oct 2011 15:03:06
roy keane is the next manager at notts forest.lots of money gone on mr keane at the bookies and has been made fav.(17)(19)That would ruin their chances of promotion straight awayOkay good shout - BUT who is going to be next manager of NOTTINGHAM FOREST ?What's that saying - "A fool and his money"??I can see Roy Keane at NOTTS FOREST, they'd be good together, for a bit.Whoever forest hire will struggle to keep them up, seeing how they spent money on useless players and lost all there good players :)As an Ipswich fan I hope for your sake this is just paper talk. He tried hard but has no clue on tactics, transfers or man mangement. You'll do well to stay up with him in charge.As if Forest were not in enough trouble alreadyIf he goes there, Forest go down. Simple as. Great player, but self-absorbed and erratic as a manager, especially under pressure. Dave Jones = much better option. PS I wonder if Forest might have an outside bet on getting Martin O Neill for a temporary project, just to the end of the season? PPS How about an audacious swoop for a certain Nigel Clough?? PPPS Where is Trevor Francis these days? I like Forest, so hope they steady the ship.

Gerry francis a surprise candidate for the Bristol City Job, Francis has been working for Stoke and is highly regarded within the game and will bring Gary penrice to Ashton Gate as assistant Manager. The fact both penrice and Francis are Bristol rovers Legends doesnt matter to City owner Steve Landsdown(1)(18)Not suprised he isnt bothered, neither are coming.These are the last pair of Gas tts I would ever wanna see at AG! Would set fire to my season ticket if it ever happened - which it won't.......

 


05 Oct 2011 13:42:23
The chap who replied to my Southend posting saying he fell asleep. All I can say is what I said was the truth.

Another thing I'd say is how the structure is set up now it would not be Ron Martin who'll conduct manager/player negotiations.

That now rests with Tara Brady.(3)(7)Ha ha you are a cure for insomniacs everywhere

 


05 Oct 2011 13:28:02

Michael Owen would be lucky to get a game in the Carling Cup!

 


05 Oct 2011 13:16:16
My response to the previous posting on Southend:

I agree in the main what was said was accurate but one specific thing I disagree with.

Kevin Maher is another who wouldn't return to the Club whilst Ron Martin is still around.

Ron forced the then manager Tilson not to play Maher whick eventually forced him out of the Club.

As I say the other parts that were written is accurate.

I personally want Sturrock and Coughlan to stay here but something tells me come the end of the month they will no longer be here.

I won't speculate on contenders because I don't speculate and besides there are at the moment no vacancies.(4)(2)Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz seriously dull hang on I'm slipping into a comaWhen you wake up from your coma you will find that PS has moved back to the West Country to take Plymouth back to it's former glories. He is Mr Plymouth and we will welcome him back with open arms.

Some will say I'm a know-all but I've a relative who is a friend of one of the directors at Southend United. News being bandied about is:

The Club are fighting tooth and nail to hold onto the management team but they admittedly say they cannot be 100% sure of succeeding. Should they depart they'll look to bring in an experienced manager to work alonside a younger man. The experienced one I've not a clue but Kevin Maher is still talked about with affection at Roots Hall and he could be the younger guy they go for. Hopefully the present regime remains in tact.

It is unlikely Ryan Hall will sign a second extention at Roots Hall - Next summer he'll have a year left on his contract and it is then the Club will consider selling if an acceptable offer is made.

Anthony Grant has been unhappy with Blues for some time. Theres an outside chance he'll go in january but its more likely his deal will wind down next summer when he can depart for nothing.

Nothing concrete about Barker or Corr going back to Home Park should the management team return there but players have been lined up for Southend to sign soon. but looking to improve the squad is an everyday ongoing thing.

It;s been said Peter Gilbert is a little unsettled in this neck of the woods and he could be one that returns to Plymouth should Sturrock and coughlan go back as they are admirers of the Left back. This might the reason Gilbert is playing out of his skin at the mo. looking for takers.

Whilst Ron is involved with Blues there's no chance of Steve Tilson returning to Roots Hall.

This is honestly what I've been told but take it as you will.(1)(9)SSorSorry fell asleep after line one

 


05 Oct 2011 12:39:59
Are LEEDS UTD really going to let Aidy White go to Derby on Loan with a view for a pernament move ?? ythis rumour is all over the place, surely we should keep him what do you all think ?
Keep= believable let go = unbelievable
Gj(26)(19)Its the Mirror making stuff up. He's doing well in the 1st team. No way he's off.I agree, think he is doing very well lately, GjCant believe it,we are short of defenders,we would be stupid to let him go hes young talented and doing well in the first teamI think this rumour is cheap mischievous tabloid press nothing serious to read into here just lazy journalism. Aidy White has been a relevation so far this season he has pace to burn and now with Danny back at the club we have much more natural balance on the left hand side of the pitch so why would we sell?I think he is better than pugh and was our man of the match against pompeyI would be happy to see him at Derby, he looks a good leftback and kilbane goes back in jan so we could do with him.I'd like to see Aidy at Derby as we are in need of a left back in january when kilbane goes back to hull, so I would welcome the loan move.Just because derby may be interested does not mean he will go....Bloody Tabloids needing to fill spaceNo way 2 derby ha ha ha ha,,,I can understand derby being interested in him but white isnt interested in going to an inferior clubI like aidy a lot but still think he would be better on the wing he is not a natural fullback

 


05 Oct 2011 12:29:36

To all you Blackburn and nott forest fans I'm a rangers fan just being told Walter smith has being offered forest job and Blackburn job(14)(21)How can he manage two teams at the same time?He obviously chooses 1Its NOTTINGHAM FOREST! {Ed003's Note -lol}Why does he have to manage two teams, the guy said he was offered the jobs. Decent manager and no compensation to pay so wouldn't be surprised if he has been offered both jobs.I thought Leicester had a manager and won 4-0 at the weekend, currently sitting in 8th place 4 points off auto promotion after just ten games? Maybe I'm cynical but I thought that was motoring along quite well.

As for Notss Forest if I were the chairman there I'd put a certain Alan Curbishley in but hey, they haven't got a chairman have they!

Steve Tilson is to leave Lincoln City and go back home to Southend United.

Jamie Clapham to take over as interim Lincoln boss.

Also, Jamie Pitman is to be sacked as Hereford boss and replaced by Gary Peters. Pitman has been offered the manager's job at nearby Worcester City, as Carl Heeley (their manager) will be sacked after a poor run of results.

Paolo Di Canio will leave Swindon by December 31st, and the new manager there will be Richard Money - unless he accepts the vacancy at Wrexham FC, if that happens then Ronnie Moore or Mark Robins will take over at The County Ground.(2)(12)You couldn't work Martin O'Neill and Alan Curbishley into that load of nonsense could you ? Oh I'm sure you could if you tried !'steve tilson is to leave lincoln city and go back home to southend united.

bllocks

jamie clapham to take over as interim lincoln boss.

think you'll find that peter jackson is taking over there soon

also, jamie pitman is to be sacked as hereford boss and replaced by gary peters. pitman has been offered the manager's job at nearby worcester city, as carl heeley (their manager) will be sacked after a poor run of results.

not sure about this - probably.

paolo di canio will leave swindon by december 31st, and the new manager there will be richard money - unless he accepts the vacancy at wrexham fc, if that happens then ronnie moore or mark robins will take over at the county ground.

1/4 - well done. rm was wanted by andrew fitton and fitton wants to buy the club back off jeremy wray. however, fitton made himself look like a prat last year so wray won't sell. di canio will be out by christmas and swindon won't go up = arbib and black pull out and swindon are up st creek.

Bristol City are torn between four names to be the next manager.
-Hull City assistant Craig Shakespeare is keen on getting into management and Bristol City may give him the chance after gaining experience at 'bigger' Championship clubs at Hull, West Brom and Leicester.
-Derek McInnes could be approached at St Johnstone and is expected the compensation fee with the SPL side would easily be agreed. McInnes is also keen to move south of the border to try his luck in the English leagues.
-City are monitoring the situation of Mick McCarthy. The former Republic of Ireland boss is rumoured to be on the verge of being sacked and if Wolves lose their next game to main rivals West Brom, City may wait two weeks to see if anything materialises.
-The fourth and final name in the frame is a surpising Darren Patterson. Patterson has been coaching since 2004 and that seems to impress the City board. The former Wigan, Crystal Palace and Luton player has worked his way up through Oxford United but is now currently assistant at Rotherham. Patterson was also caretaker boss at rivals Bristol Rovers last year.(7)(23)Now this one is plain daftNow this one is plain daftWhat deluded buffoon wrote this twaddle!!!!McLaren new Manager, not announced yetDerek mcinnes has already turned down a job in the english leagues so don't talk rubbishWont be mclaren it will be the cheapest option available.Mick McCarthy going no where I'm a wolves fan and as much as I would like to see Mick leave as I think he's taken Wolves as far as he can the board and owner Steve Morgan love himMick Mcarthey lol, no chance whatsoever

 


04 Oct 2011 08:51:56
Get to the bookies! By the end of the week it should be confirmed that:

Dave Jones will take over at Bristol City
Paul Sturrock will take over at Plymouth
Martin Allen will take over at Portsmouth

Sturrock is shortest odds at 1/3 on!(20)(20)

04 Oct 2011 08:01:36
Barry Corr and Chris Barker will join Paul Sturrock and Graham Coughlan at Plymouth.

Both players are likely to sign for them in january as they are out of contract with Southend in May.

The pair will eventually turn down contract extentions at Roots Hall therefore the Club will want a little something for them as they are regarded as too good at this level to let their deals wind down meaning they would be available for free.

Both players are used to that part of the country with Corr having played for Exeter and Barker already has played for Plymouth.(11)(8)

Nottingham Forest have failed in an audacious attempt to lure Simon Grayson from Leeds after the club refused the managerless strugglers to speak with the Whites boss. Doughty is said to be on the hunt for a manager who will achieve highly without significant investment.

Forest will now turn to Karl Robinson.(13)(15)Complete lie as Doughty is having nothing to do with the recruiting of the new manager.Were do people get there story's from.
You'd be a good employee for jackanory.Another fool who thinks leeds have the tools grayson no chance dont want him only one man mr O'Neill come on downForest will name Mark Hughes as Manager in a press conference this morningYou tool - Grayson is a Leeds fan and always desribed this as his dream job - why would he even consider going to the Florist's5th October and no confirmation of Mark Hughes - deluded Florist fans who need to wake up.

 


04 Oct 2011 00:22:43
Mick McCarthy may consider walking out of wolves management if the lack of getting behind the team, Martin O'Neil and Rafael Benitez could be the favourites to take over if McCarthy walks(12)(12)The Benitez rumour is complete bull st ,MM wont be getting sacked.had Wolves of been relegated he still would have been kept as manager.COYW.What a load of bos. He has a job for life at Wolves.I hope we sack him he cant take wolves to the next levelJust what is the next level for Wolves? If the rumour is that MAckem Mick wants to leave for reasons of interference from above then those are the last 2 managers who would accept such treatment.The "next level" is the championship, so everyone will be happy....as he has a job for life.

 


03 Oct 2011 23:05:36
Steve Kean to be forced out of the Blackburn job.

Alan Shearer has been told by Venkys that the job is his if he wants it.(26)(8)PFFT! What do Venkeys know!I suspect Alan Shearer would steer clear of any offer from the Venky's, also he does not have a full Pro Euro licence, so who's to say he can be successful as a Manager, Blackburn are the laughing stock of the premier league right now.

 


03 Oct 2011 23:04:39
doncaster could be about to sign alan smith from newcastle.
would be a bad signing tho!(16)(13)It would be a bad signing for a premier league club, but not Doncaster, no disrespect inteded of course but he'd be great playing at that level again, a well experienced player and of definite Championship caliber still!Everyone has backed this stupid rumour, but no-one has revealed how Donny will afford his wages. Its impossible. If Leeds couldnt afford them, how are the understudys going to? John Ryan is an idiot, he's just stirring this up to get people to support Doncaster and not Leeds; he has no respect for the Whites and probably still gets off on the Play-Off final win. Times have changed, Mr. Ryan.
wallyMore chance of Will Smith signing than Alan SmithSmith is out injured with a hamstring problem and hasn't played competitive football for a while Pardew has made it clear he is staying due to small squad and off field influences on youngsters. Even on a free Chavcaster could not afford him. If pigs flew he'd be off to lufc once contract expires but more likely go abroad to finish up in America. Go away Doncaster and be realistic!

 


03 Oct 2011 23:03:57
A sad shrimper ? I'm a furious one.

Still clinging to the hope our management team stays put although I fear those wishes are fading.

A friend of mine has a relative who works at the Club and the likelyhood may be that that either Former pl;ayer Mark Stimson or former boss Steve Thompson will take the reigns till the end of the season.(15)(4)

 


03 Oct 2011 22:56:43
My sources at Southend have informed me Sturrock and Coughlan WILL go to Plymouth and take Barker and Corr with them as they look to set to rebuild the club.

Paul Simpson/ Peter Taylor/ Keith Millen are on the list to be the next Southend Mananger.(13)(8)

 


03 Oct 2011 22:52:08
Nottingham Forest are set to make an unusual managerial appointment. They will seek permission from Hartlepool to speak to Mick Wadsworth. They have been impressed with his ability to work on a shoestring budget, and with Doughty ready to step down at the end of the season, he won't be making funds available.(13)(12)How have forest got a shoestring budget? as a Barnsley fan, i get really wound up when this is said......you bought gunter for around £1.5 million, george boateng must be on near on £25,000 a week, derbyshire must have been close to £500,000, miller could rise upto £1.4 million, andy reid and jonothan greening will be on close to £20,000, tudgay and blackstock must have cost between £750,000-£1 million, majewski and lynch also cost.....shoestring budget? look at barnsley mateDerbyshire was on a free mateKeith Millen been at Forest todayMick Wadsworth would not be an unusual appointment - Homer Simpson would be an unusual appointment !!, I like reading the posts for Florist fans they make me chuckle

 


03 Oct 2011 22:05:23
paul sturrock and graham coughlan to be installed in their respective roles at plymouth in the very near future.

Who Southend have lined up I've no idea. Have not heard anything on that front.(14)(5)Mark Stimson is rumoured to be interested, despite only just taking over at Kettering.

Kettering have no money, might not have a stadium soon (if they cannot renegotiate terms on Rockingham Road) and Stimson has publicly slated his players for being unfit.Sturrock will move by the end of October. Stimson will be in place by the beginning of November.

New doncaster manager Dean Saunders as asked steve brue about the possability of signing goalkeeper Westward on loan(16)(1)False rumour. The keepers name is Westwood !Westwood is needed as back up, and he left the Championship to get established in the Prem. Doncaster would be like an admission of failure for him.

Blackburn boss Steve Kean is keen on naming former England manager Steve McClaren as his new First Team Coach.(5)(17)This is Humour and Not a Rumour.

 


03 Oct 2011 18:57:50
Steve McClaren is set to find a new club, just a day after leaving Nottingham Forest. Rivals Notts County is set to approach the former England boss after they learned that Martin Allen could join one Championship team by the end of the week. Also, Portsmouth boss Steve Cotterill will be sacked by the board before the Barnsley game and expected to appoint Lawrie Sanchez as their new manager until the end of the year, from Barnet.(4)(19)

 


03 Oct 2011 18:54:51
Martin O'Neill is being linked with Celtic but not to be in managerial role. Neil Lennon said today that something needed to be changed and the former Hoops boss is in talks with the Glasgow club to be the new reserve team manager and coach within the first team and reserves. O'Neill is keen to get back into football and sees an opportunity with Lennon as a good chance to show he still has it.(6)(21)Would love to c martin back but no chanceO'neill is waitin for a premiership job or top championship side - why would he go to a tinpot league & as a reserve coach at that - unbelievable

03 Oct 2011 17:39:20
Southend fan here in peace ( not here to upset the shrimper die-hards).

Unfortunately I'm hearing that Paul Sturrock and Graham Coughlan are certain to be on their way to Plymouth in the next 2 weeks.

Apparently they are head and shoulders above any of the other contenders.

Also told that Steve Cotterill will be a target for Southend once his future at troubled Portsmouth has been sorted.

I remember Cotterill was a contender for the post at Roots Hall when Steve Tilson was eventually appointed.(4)(10)

Nigel Adkins seen in Bristol hotel!(15)(32)To get maynard , no way will he leave saints you numptyTwo hopes, Bob Hope and no hopeYou heard it hear first!Saints went bust once they can again and Adkins will realise that a decent league 1 team cannot maintain a championship season!So what? isnt he allowed to be in a hotel in Bristol?Adkins leaving Saints for Brizzle, is about as likely as me winning the jackpot on the lottery three weeks running and I'm no Saints fan.Worst rumour I have ever seen on here!!Bcfc fan- No chance of this one-Atkins is doing a great jobHe is probably watching Maynard!Saints went bust once they can again and Adkins will realise that a decent league 1 team cannot maintain a championship season!
---------------------------------
I am no Saints fan but why cant they mantain there start to the season? from what i have seen they Are the real deal. I mean you dont score 25 goals in 10 games if you are an average side do you. As for the rumour why would a manager leave a team top of there leauge for a team clearly going to struggle to survive in the Championship this season, its like Alex Fergerson leaving Man U for Swansea, (no disrespect Swansea fans) not saying Saints are a big club like Man U, its just very unlikely to happen lets be relistic.

He is on a season long loan with no recall so no chance hes going anywhere near Brighton this season and he 100% would not have agreed a deal to sign for anyone in the summer at this early stage.

Terrible effort, go back to class!
