What a joke all the teams by us got players in, we have money why didn't we bring in some good players, think we need 1 striker to work with lamber, another good centre half and a good play make midfielder

Agreed. We needed someone to finish for us. Am not impressed.

Striker I agree with but not the rest. Weve got a good team and we've proved that.

JOKE! not like we are mid table. we are struggling and not out of it!

Not amused

You do realise any strikers that are good enough to sit along side or cover SRL will be playing regular football with there clubs and may not want to or be allowed to leave. Hooper? Odemwhinge? Both wanted to go but couldn't. Why would clubs sell there best players mid season? Why would we want anything less than best players? We have signed a defender which is what everyone was crying out for. So lets get on with the season, stop moaning about hyped up transfers and look forward to next Season in the premier league!!

Harry Redknapp has just screwed QPR over

31 Jan 2013 22:32:00
Saints we have 30 mins left! Wrap up a deal soon!

31 Jan 2013 22:04:01
Just heard on tv that Saints will not be making any more signings? Disappointing

31 Jan 2013 22:01:20
Jordan Sibley just tweeted that there will be no more business for this transfer window, now the squad must push on! COYR saintBB

Were good enough already and panic buying like qpr rarely works and you would think they know that. going the same way as pompey I reckon

News on tv saints not doing any business tonight :(

Barnard is going to Oldham. Not sure how he fits into their big physical play but hey ho. He is worth a few goals at that level.

Goodbye Steeeeeeve, best of luck at the Reebok. Once a Saint always a Saint.

De ridder gone on loan to Bolton, making space maybe ? Be patient saints fans but there's no guarantee

Every team around us has not just made signings but made GOOD signings. Although I do believe we will stay up this is still exceedingly worrying. I mean just look at Newcastle, I would have welcomed any of their signings to St Marys. Hope we can do a bit more business.

- TJ

QPR and Newcastle have both made quality signings, bit worrying we've only signed 1 player but I still think we'll be fine

Totally agree. I'm sorry to sound like doom and gloom. I don't understand why people are so happy we haven't done anything. We have lost four points in last two games because we can't finish well enough. Doesn't matter how well we play when we can't score. Plenty of teams have gone down playing teams off the pitch. We needed that midfield boss to get goals. Not impressed.

WOW, QPR gets Samba! now that is putting your money out there! I mentioned in the beginning of the season SFC should go for the Beast, but didn't know how much it would take to get him back to the BPL. NOW I KNOW! WOW, I would not right QPR off as a relegation fodder. Our task and the teams around us just got a little harder with Samba at his best.

I've been saying the same thing the playing field has changed!! The teams around us are no longer the same! They've got better! Fingers crossed over the next view hours. if you don't learn by your mistakes your doomed to repeat them.

Can't really tell if yr being serious. He certainly isn't worth the reported 100k a week at QPR. Anyway, no team can stay up just because of one player

Last time Samba joined a Premiership club they got relegated.

boruc played well lastnight he is definitely starting to show what he can do strong and makes himself look big in one on one situations has a bit of schmeichel about his play.

Boruc was awesome at points. Great catching of corners, great 1 on 1 stop and an absolute world class save from the header. Deserved a point

Still no sighnings we need a proven forward with pace! Ricky looks to be stuggleing he's always a danger but need support up front! jay still looks out of his depth! And a holding midfielder to conduct the midfield bigila of to inter by the looks of it? But a player of his mold would fill are gaps!!think that's the difference of getting a result last night?

Agreed mate. Our finishing has not been up to scratch. We are missing out and needed points. Can see us struggling as we haven't bought anyone. A real shame.

31 Jan 2013 14:51:42
Any southampton transfer rumours

Yes. There were lots of them. All rubbish. Does annoy me when people come on here and say definitely getting someone! You heard it here first! Etc etc etc. hope they feel suitably pathetic for their drivel

Mate I agree totally, I hope they feel like complete knobheads.

Does anyone have any idea of what QPR's wage bill is going to be like after today and what they will pay out in agents fee's? Surely they can't sustain this for too long. Could go the way of Pompey in a couple of years??

I hope last nights performance may tempt some undecided players to St Mary's today.

It didn't :-(

As many have said great second half performance sadly no points though. Should give us confidence going into the run of games coming up. Great to hear Fergie say we were the best team to come to Old Trafford this season . COYR.
