Heard from a couple of Saints season ticket holders today, they have actually made a bid.

Would keep him playing in red and white stripes ! Might end up back in the Championship though !

Old news, that was last Summer.

I'm convinced Ollie's going to Bournemouth

I'm convinced Ollie's going to Bournemouth

How come?...

How come?...

Because
1. I just feel that it would be a good next step up for him : relatively low key but good young manager and seemingly nice, family club.
2. There's quite a lot of gossip about Wilson going to Chelsea, so B'mouth would have the money and Watkins could fit into the attack.
3. B'mouth are slipping and need a boost
4. It's near Exeter

Just a feeling, Banksy...no evidence and not from mate in pub.

I did notice point 2) above myself and thought that possible.
Twenty million it is then and a juicy 3.6 mil to us.Now that would boost our chances of getting a couple of decent promotion winning players in.

Yes, Banksy. The money would come in very handy...
