North West based, but very much a Southerner at heart. Southampton F.C. fan

@bswatridge @bfgfox Charles will definitely go

[Russell @RustyRL]

@SH20CPFC Don’t all clubs make up valuations? Bar cases for young players that go to tribunals, that’s literally how the transfer system works in football?

[Russell @RustyRL]

@AlexComber_ I reckon professional clubs start their scouting for the summer window earlier than 4 months before?

[Cleverly 💐 @Cleverlydey4u]

Henry and Zlatan juggling the ball with skills… they’ve still got it 😂

[Russell @RustyRL]

@Paulgarbs Can’t play 2 games in a week. Can’t really do a full 90 mins either. Good player though

[Russell @RustyRL]

@SirGowen @L1minus10 Yeah - I think a newly promoted club might take a chance on him actually. Ipswich would happily have him on a free. Wages will be peanuts for them and if they go down, he does a job for them.

[Russell @RustyRL]

@eeeeeyecourse25 @TheFLZone And tbf - Solak is also a billionaire. He’s not short of cash

[Russell @RustyRL]

@eeeeeyecourse25 @TheFLZone Yes, but SCR rules restrict how much Denise can put in. Richest owners does not equal richest club.

[Russell @RustyRL]

@dettmer93 It’s cash. He’ll want a bump, high basic and long contract. We prob offered a reduced wage, weighted towards appearances and a shorter contract (two years?). Club don’t think he is worth what he wants. It happens

[Russell @RustyRL]

@eeeeeyecourse25 @TheFLZone Stewart isn’t signing for Saints as he wants more money and a longer contract that club are willing to offer. Are Stoke going bigger than a parachute club?

[Russell @RustyRL]

Fascinated to see where Stewart goes and what contract he gets there #saintsfc

[Russell @RustyRL]

@LukeEdwardsTele Forced to sell him because of signings they chose to make. They could have kept him and not made those signings

[Russell @RustyRL]

@AlfieHouseEcho Mendes gets what Mendes wants

[Russell @RustyRL]

@just_tom_tweets @NUFCgallowgate @JulesSurface They do for PSR calcs for that year.
Not for ever! No club gets them all right

[Russell @RustyRL]

@just_tom_tweets @NUFCgallowgate @JulesSurface Yes, but you still have to pay the other £15m mate. Even if you amortise it in later years, it still hits the accounts at some point. QHe’s right

[Russell @RustyRL]

@jim_keoghan It’s not a fine.

[Russell @RustyRL]

@transferfeedcom Are we not doing sources anymore? Just link any player to any club?

[Russell @RustyRL]

@AlfieHouseEcho @SaintsExtra @BILD It’s a very decent loan fee, let’s be fair to them Alfie

[Russell @RustyRL]

Incredible find

[Russell @RustyRL]

@SaintRob__ Not if he actually has to play though? We didn’t want to play McCarthy and he’s by all accounts 3 or 4 times the keeper Long is
