I saw him at Eastleigh airport last night! I was stuck outside, in the multi story, waiting for my taxi that hadnt turned up. this guy walks towards me and I was sure it was him. Just googled him and it definitely was. Dont think he'll resign though and dont really think we need him anyway. He was prob just going on holiday. He had his missus and kid with him.

Leon best lived in the area for 3 years. chances are he was seeing mates. just because i saw messi in london, dont mean hes going to west ham etc

I love this website :L and the saints rumours are just to good! as a Saints fan i can say that most of these people we are supposedly getting are just rumours! i think we might get Michu but idk about anyone else but NA & NC keep their buys on the low to keep the price cheap so who knows who we will be getting could be someone we have never heard of before! NA said more signings by the end of this month, personally i cant wait for the end of the month to come so the players are known by everyone :D

He said pre-season and possibly pre-training. Fee for Rodriguez was not cheap.

It's pro ably more likely to be people we've never heard of tbh

I dont see saints chasing Jack Butland for much longer - price is too high for someone unproven
i see us going for either Fraser Forster, Allan McGregor or Craig Gordon - experienced quality goalkeepers that are proven at prem level

Foster isnt proven at premiership level, hes been playing for last 2 years in spl. which is just like our leauge 1. plus hes said hes staying at newcastle to get that number 1 spot

No idea who it will be but surprised we haven't signed one yet

I just want us to buy someone :L i'm getting annoyed now and just need to know who it is ffs!! Its great being a saints fan :D

I think our GK situation has been kept under wrap for a while... i can't imagine the club would release our No. 2 without having a replacement lined up especially with the only other pro keeper after KD is not even good enough for the football league let alone PL...
