[RUMOUR] Jack Stephens

Pedro replacement?

 

Ok.

And now, doing the rumba, it’s Jack Stephens and his partner Francisco Sierralta.

 

TBFC looks different in a dress doesn't he?

 

We all do dear.

 

MATRON!

 

Dont let outsiders know what this forum is really about please.

 

Cheese, no?

 

He is on £48k a week at Southampton. I doubt we can offer anywhere near that.

 

Would literally laugh out loud if Stephens was the last player we bought in during this window.

 

Ed of Sunday Service fame (who seems pretty ITK, he was the first to mention we were in for him, and the first to mention the deal had broken down)

Absolutely clear as mud! Well we may not have the JP money, but we do have the Kamara money...

 

I want someone better regardless of the increase in capital from JP

 

Going to Muff apparently... They're going to have the season we had last year aren't they?

 

We can only hope

 

Yes. And the season we'll have next year if we get promoted

 

I don't know how to describe it but... he really looks like a Bournemouth player.

 

Weirdly I know exactly what you mean!

 

Like your sister’s first boyfriend with a car.

 

Even his name sounds like a Bournemouth player

 

Bournemouth are a historically lower league team with a 10k seater stadium who essentially overstretched themselves to get to the Prem and stay for 5 years in the first place, and spent a fair bit last season in the summer and in January, is it any surprise they aren't spending much? He could barely get them over the line with a squad far superior to everyone bar Fulham in the Championship, unfortunately for him he can't play the Premier League on easy mode...

 

What is the difference between a Bournemouth player and a Southampton player?

 

All Bournemouth players sound like you’d read about their tragic death whilst fighting for Britain in WW2

 

Whereas all Southampton players sound like they used to play for Man City reserves. Which they did.

 

Odd one this. Was pretty widely reported that we wanted him, then when it broke down it was supposedly because we were going to use the JP money to get someone better. Could obviously all be nonsense. Odd that we never went back in for him or an alternative. Unless he was an alternative to Hause, which raises its own concerns.

 

Maybe we were going to get him if one of Sarr and JP went, someone better if both left, and nobody now that it looks like both are staying? Or maybe I'm just overthinking things and the Pozzos are doing it all off the cuff?

 

Season long loan, deal officially confirmed by muff.

 

I heard that Parker okayed the deal just after the Liverpool game as a steaming turd leaving gift.

 

Bullet dodged.
