let us know how you go.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Maybe not much longer than that though. They have just had another disappointing finish to a season, llosing by 15 goals to the Swans.

I think we'll see him wearing a tricolour jumper with a shield and ribbon in '23.

What would we give up for Bing if it is announced he wants in next year?

Seems to be eluded to here but could be

Battle and our future first and a 2nd rnd pick for Bing?

We need to use all the FRDP we can to get some potential star midfielders!

I’d give up plenty for King, if Clarkson is named their coach - he might stay

Plying with your brother, let alone a twin isn't everyones dream.

Shane Wakelin for example became a better player once Daryl left and would have been very handy in 2004 2005 if Blight hadn't given him away for nothing!
f*** them. I don't see any reason why he would do that. You would reckon he wants to play with his brother. It's logical unlike most opinions on this site.

+1 ...
it's time for us to grab the opportunity, Bing to the Saints but probably not until 2023.
People are worried about Bing being in Mings shadow, "he'd be better off at a successful club ...".
That's complete BS !
BOTH will be champions for us, regardless of who kicks the most goals or whatever other stats you want to use
And yeah FXXX them & everyone else !!
