I notice Hurst is in the squad instead of Mitchell at moment so assume Tommy not impressed. I thought Mitchell was injured. Just on the out of contract players....this chat gets earlier every year. I can’t remember the last time an out of contract player moved away from saints to the betterment of his career. Am I missing someone obvious? We almost always re-sign the ones we want to keep and let go the ones we don’t. Any exceptions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I thought about MOH but I couldn't remember if he was anywhere near the end of a contract when he was sold. I was more talking about players who ended up out of contract when with us. Swanson, yeah...there’s one we never got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just begs the question how many players have regretted leaving or not coming to Saints... andrew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Know its a bit early for us but would think Tommy is thinking about January transfer window. Think Nydam will be going back & not sure if Mitchell was just till January. I am sure Tommy will be trying to loan out McCann & McClean. We all think it looks like Scougall might be away if he agrees. The question is will we bring in anyone. Will need cover for Tanser as I can't see Easton coming back. We still need a holding midfielder ,for cover & the future. Liam is doing a great job & it is a bonus that he is doing a job in there for us but it is a long season , injury & suspension will kick in sometime.

mad saints fan Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 If Nydam returns to Ipswich and Scougall leaves permanently, do we need another midfielder for the rest of the season? a loan signing maybe? I'd have thought if we couldn't get anyone better than Nydam then we should be looking at extending his stay, he must have learned what Tommy wants from him so it would avoid starting fresh with another loanee.

RandomGuy Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I'm sure Ipswich have changed their manager since he was loaned to us, so it might come down to his plans for Nydam and what the player wants. You'd assume Scougall will be gone but I wouldn't bet on it, nobody would pay a fee when he'll be a free agent six months later. Could be looking at a loan, but who knows. A central midfielder is top of the list, still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garydavidson Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Hopefully this may entice a few extra to go along to the game v rangers at Christmas: Would be amazing if we beat them and he came on for his trademark celebration.

So the ball is in our court so hopefully a nice amount of cash from the English and re-invest it in contracts for Watt, Shaughnessy, Tanser..

Apparently it's appearance based, so if he's not reached the trigger point yet, I'm not sure we could just extend it. If he signs elsewhere before it's triggered then you'd imagine the clause would be good. Alstons an odd player to judge. We lack goalscoring midfielders like him, but then again, I'm not at all convinced we'll miss him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted December 20, 2018 Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 Scougall &Hurst going with Nydam loan ended . Two young midfielders out & loan . Mitchell retuned to Burnley ,hopefully & Sinclair back from BSC. I assume Tommy will bring in others or with us only 10 points free from releagation will he be happy with what we have.

I am referring to Tommy's statement that 38 points was his target to be safe. I think he said once they reach that they would kick on. Not an exact quote but the gist.
