Murty looks set to sign for Saints
6:40am Monday 3rd August 2009
GRAEME Murty is expected to become a permanent Saints signing this week.
The 34-year-old former Reading captain has been training with the team since the start of pre-season.
After proving his fitness to new boss Alan Pardew, he will be offered a deal to stay at St Mary’s.
Pardew believes that Murty’s arrival will put pressure on Lloyd James as the two men compete for the right back role.

Bad defeat on Saturday - it will dent any fragile confidence the team generated after thrashing Hearts!
Going to be along week waiting for the Millwall game.

The signing that sends a message, it's not going to be anything like as good as you think!
It's going to be great Murty. You'll get loads of support at Saints and you know the boss if bringing in some more guys .. all is looking good.
Saint Murty has a ring to it.. sign and get stuck in to the footy battle of a life time.

St.Yorkie wrote:Having seen James as a midfielder he is not convincing. Schoolboys stand waiting for the ball to arrive rather than meeting it. He hasn't got the instincts for immediacy which you need in midfield on a senior level and ends up losing the ball repeatedly. It isn't coincidence that Gillet, Wotton and Schneiderlin are all preferred, as was Drew when he was here. Can he make it as RB? That's for him to prove. If he's got it he should be able to unseat Murty in time.
I must smile - James isn't a right back, so how is he going to make competition for the place? Bad defeat on Saturday - it will dent any fragile confidence the team generated after thrashing Hearts! Going to be along week waiting for the Millwall game.

Even Alan Pardew has said that we looked a different side when he came on at QPR! Look, if you are a Saints fan then SUPPORT your club. The last thing a new player needs when coming to the club is negative rubbish from negative people. Be thankful that we have a team at all, let alone one with real potential and a great management structure. COYR!!!
