    I do hope Mr Ward Pee,er Prowse has had a look at this thread!
    I also wonder how many other players have 19 posts relating to lavatorial activities?
    If he signs perhaps he will run out to 'You Are In My Cistern' by the late great Robert Palmer?

    I new this would happen. I go out for a few hours and come back to absolute scenes on the forum!

    Harvey Bradbury released from his loan at Hungerford and then given away on a free transfer to Oxford United.
    No wonder you're all up in arms! Madness!!

    IMO Ward-Prowse is a solid, very good passing, tireless, set-piece taking English midfielder! I'd have him in a heartbeat.
    Rarely is a squad fully fit and the middle of midfield is vital. We need another. Ward-Prowse would be an excellent signing.

    He can also play wide. Pereyra off? JWP covers both positions.

    OR

    If we switch to a midfield 3 then Hughes, Capoue, Chalobah, Doucoure, Cleverley is threadbare because of current injuries and the inevitable suspensions.

    £10m would be a steal in todays market.

    Especially having to avoid stepping barefoot on one these, on the twice nightly assault course to the bathroom. Mentioned in things I hate too.
    My missus once said you have never experienced pain like giving birth. Like she knows anything.

    I’m told the feistier ladies liked to use the chaps’ latrine for a crafty wazz in the heyday of the Groucho Club.

    Would hardly call it a steal. Probably worth the money though.

    We must be having a laugh to expect to get a 23 year old home grown player with over 150 premiership games, over 30 under 21 caps and a full England cap for £10m.

    Aston Villa are selling Grealish for £30m and in my opinion he is no better than Ward-Prowse.

    Explain to her that kick in the ******** is considerably more painful. This is evidenced by that fact that after your first one, you never, ever think ‘you know what, I really am ready for another one”

    That should really annoy her.

    Trust me I annoy her simply by breathing.
    As for a kick in the nads, I'm sure he whoops she vaguely remembers this before the surgery.

    You could pick them up?

    Or plug them in?

    You forget that we have included the word “cheeky” before the £10m, which makes it acceptable.

    SSN say we're attempting a loan bid. Anyone else think it's a bit worrying how reluctant we are to pay for anyone or anything - you know, given the huge premier league money and £50 million worth of sales. We're acting like a business with serious cash flow problems.

    I don't mind these try-before-you-buy bids. Imagine if we'd signed Carrillo for €20m instead of the initial loan deal.

    Not in the midfield part of the squad, no. JWP and the Italian bloke from Juventus aren't first choice picks for their sides but would they be for WFC once/if everyone is fit? Have them for a season and buy if it suits, send 'em back if it doesn't.

    And perhaps the club realise, say, from the Gray signing, that £18m kind of limits your movement elsewhere in the market at the same time as well.

    edit - cfdr0ftaW beat me to it!
     
  18. Fair point. But you could also have fairly said we are acting like a business wishing to avoid serious cas flow problems in order to avoid being flushed down the toilet to join every other skint former PL team.

    Can I just ask...

    Why do you seem to suggest that everyone clearly states or shows that they have seen the positive AND negative when they give their opinions?
     
  20. Not trying to do that at all. What I am trying to do is point out that any speculative negative comment is just as worthless as a speculative positive statement.

    All it says, yet again but also quite fairly, is that you are not optimistic about next season, only using different words. The meaning is the same, and the scenario is irrelevent, because it is just speculation on its own, rather than speculation to build an argument.

    A discussion will go nowhere and resolve no issue if it purely consists of empty, unfocussed speculation.

    So, in theory, if someone believes we are having a poor transfer window, and wants to give their opinion to that effect, how do you think they should be wording that?
     
  22. Exactly as you just did, and I would say you have proved my point.

    There is a big lack of balance to most the stuff posted on here.

    Like most fans, I want us to sign players and do well, and also get frustrated when other teams are seemingly better off than us.

    However, I also see the good in the squad. Have faith in the coach, and feel that Gino is trying to run the club the best he can.

    Its a shame that so much on here is overwhelming negativity. You would think we're down already

    The Mirror are reporting that we will go back in for him in January.

    £750k this time. By 2022 we'll have worn them down and they'll sell for £1.1m.

    "Watford plan a fresh £10million move for Southampton star James Ward-Prowse in January.

    The Hornets were keen on a deadline-day deal for the midfielder only for Saints to pull out late on.

    Southampton saw their search for a replacement collapse after failing to lure Mali international Amadou Haidara from Red Bull Salzburg.

    But Watford will return with another bid at the start of the year and are confident of signing 23-year-old Ward-Prowse.

    Burnley also showed interest in the ex-England Under-21 international but Ward-Prowse, who has spent his entire career at St Mary’s, would rather stay down south."

    So you got him? £10m?

    This must be guesswork from the Mirror.

    As I understand it we were looking at midfielders to solve the short term injury issues. Unless those issues persist, or other issues arise (e.g. Doucoure getting his move in January) there would be no reason to pursue this one as it would just block the route for players like Quina who have obviously been promised a shot at the first team

    The pozzos just see the potential profit if he turns out to be decent because he's english I reckon.

    Hughes, chalobah, wilmot and now this prat. I'm on to their game.
