Nigel knows quite a lot about goalkeepers. Let's trust his judgement on how much Butland is worth. All I would say is that £6m on a top keeper who, if he lives up to his potential, will be between our sticks for the best part of the next 20 years is, actually, a massive bargain. It's the most important position on the pitch and worth investing in.

I heard something recently from Birmingham's goalkeeping coach saying he believed Butland to have the potential to be better than Joe Hart, who he worked with during his time at Birmingham. If true, (and not him doing a favour for his employers to up the price), 6-9m is a good investment and one would think there is some truth in it given his call up to the England squad. 'The Saints Way' - To develop from youth up and get them all playing the same attractive passing style of football. I for one am very happy for our club to be the England youth team and eventual England first team - Works for Barcelona / Spain. . .

The most Important word "IF" for that sort of money you should "KNOW"....I wonder how Kelvin feels....he has got more experience than Buckland and it seem he is to be dropped to second slot...or are we to waste that sort of money on a 2nd keeper to put on the bench???? I wonder if upsets the moral of players and if this is the "Southampton way" surely Kelvin has done enough over the last 3 years to get a crack at the prem??

Firstly must say the only thing I have to complain about as an Aussie Saint is that the new strip is revealed at 2:30am local time! Other than that, just subscribed to Foxtel for viewing the (inevitable) Saints victories over the coming season...yay!!

On Butland...I remember a local keeper who went over to play for Norwich one season, started the first game of the season, had seven put passed him and was kindly sent home on compassionate grounds.

Point being, the keeper IS a rather important part of the puzzle, but as many have said, not the only one to be discovered.

Happy days for THE RED ARRRRMMMMMMMY....COY

If at this stage in his career he is worth £6mill+ how much would it cost to get him in 5-10 years if he is to fulfill the potential that we are told he has? how much is joe hart worth at the moment?
to be honest its not the money i worry about, if we have got the money to take a punt and thats what NC NA want so be it, i am concerned that if we get him and put him straight into the starting lineup and he makes a mistake or two, will he be lambasted like bartosz was after the blackpool game. that could ruin a promising players career before its started. we saw what nerves did to bartosz, who i thought could have been a decent backup. time will tell with butland and lets hope if hes the right player for saints the right deal can and will be done.

It's not either/or though, is it? We're not buying a keeper instead of a midfielder - we're getting both. O, I've just realised the new kits are being revealed at 6pm today on the official site. That's quite exiting, isn't it?

Thanks for the welcoming words SFCOLDBOY, we are an international family and it is an exciting time to be a Saint!!

Woke up this morning to the new kit and on first impressions loved the away one, home kit fast growing on me.

Their finances are at least as bad as ours ever were, their parent company has delayed releasing it's finances (and was raided a couple of months ago) so... they are in the same type of situation we were in 5-6 seasons ago.
They do need to sell, they will have a figure in mind, Butland alone will not be worth it. Would we look at getting Redmond in too??
2 very promising young talents that would flourish in the right place at the right time. And guess where and when that is :)
COYS!
About the shirt? Looks good to me but are we changing every year now?

But you're right, the last one looked a bit naff on screen and yet I have to say it looks friggin' marvellous on me right now. It sort of accentuates my charm without making me look any less butch. The new one might be able do the same for Rickie.

I still think it's a bit too retro 'pool and Forest, though.

As I said on the Facebook site, though, RedArmy1 is going to have to change his log-in to VERYRedArmy1.

Change of subject everyone, España or Italia? Paella or Pasta?

HA HA HA HA HA HA have the skates even got a keeper? nope thought not! wont even have a team soon. has your new shirt been released yet? has it still got nobsite on it? who knows! it wont bother the `bestest fans in the world` cause you wont be able to buy it. hows the training ground search going? cause if you aint got the right facilitys you cant have a youth setup! Mr ox jnr might as well move to our multi million pound setup now then! still you could allways go back to the naval training grounds, they are good quality facilitys, well they should be they are payed for by TAX PAYERS!!! if poopey pay their tax bills then you could use them. no money, no owner, no training ground, no players, no kits for the fans, no stadium (well its not a tesco yet!) no HOPE! Will the last person to leave notarf krap please turn out the light (if the electricity board havent cut you off first!).

Do you know, my relationship with Pompey fans throughout my life has been as follows: a) I didn't know you even existed b) I found out you did and thought you were tw@ts then c) I felt sorry for you.

Whichever marketing company came up with it should be shot. Second only in stupidity and bad judgement to Cardiff going from blue to red. Good grief

Hi PiS,
I looked for pompey fans in SE Spain when we played you last season on the telly.... sadly there were none.
The Almeria Saints Fan Club numbered around 30.
Watched the return game live in Koh Samui again pompey fans were out numbered 6-1.
It seems that the blue few are becoming fewer by the year all over the world.
Enjoy Gibraltar Pis, It could be the last time you see your club.

it would appear that the blue few are in danger of becoming an endangered species, and as such could be afforded all sorts of protection e.g. no hunting or shooting out of season,no sending of a human being in a saints shirt into their lair's (baiting).
they could become such a minority that the term lovingly used by saints fans "skunt"could even be deemed rascist.
official thoughts on this are that it could be very short lived, once the "skunts" are liquidated,and the human race has completely forgotten they ever existed, probably within days

official thoughts on this are that it could be very short lived, once the "skunts" are liquidated,and the human race has completely forgotten they ever existed, probably within days

Some species become extinct by the natural selection process...(too weak to survive their environment)....dino


saurs, mammoths, giant sloths, and skunts..for example.

i agree bad bill, but i sincerely hope the natural history museum don't put a stuffed "skunt"on display, the sooner this poor excuse for football fans are removed and forgotten the better.

Hi PiS,
I looked for pompey fans in SE Spain when we played you last season on the telly.... sadly there were none.
The Almeria Saints Fan Club numbered around 30.
Watched the return game live in Koh Samui again pompey fans were out numbered 6-1.
It seems that the blue few are becoming fewer by the year all over the world.
Enjoy Gibraltar Pis, It could be the last time you see your club.

Nonetheless it would be quite nice at half time at home matches if we could have greyhounds chase round the pitch perimeter after a tracked lure consisting of a miniature toy skunt. Imagine the cheer at the end of every race as the winner gets the skunt.

no2) improvments for the disabled, i may be wrong but i think £30,000 is not enough, it would take more than that to demolish farton park, but the local charities are willing to have a whip round as a gesture of goodwill

It was done on biggest percentage of your fans to tweet so once two skunts did they were bound to win.

To be fair they did vote for free tickets for the kids but the kids rioted when they heard so they went for better disabled facilities until Appleton signed them up so statue it is. Tal Ben Haim.

Haim? With 30k, I'd have thought they would be able to create one of those group sculptures comprising every one of their greats and call it something dumb like 'In memorium to the best fans in the world - EVER, and the greatest club in history'.

Mind you, a sculpture of Bell-end Westwood playing with his ding-a-ling, Jimmy Dickenson in baggy shorts, Linvoy Primus holding an empty charity tin, Kanu goal hanging, Alan Biley clearing the bar from 3 yards, Alan Knight fumbling a back pass and (like one of those talkie action men with valcro hair I had as a boy), Steve Claridge with a vocal pull-cord that fans can tug on when they want to hear him talking b0ll0cks doesn't really add up to much, does it?

Just think, if Rickie and Adam were Spanish, they'd have won 8-0.

Over all, a number of great performances from some of the old guard. How about this for an over-30s Euro 2012 side:

Buffon
Jacobsen, Sharonov, Terry (hate to admit that), Evra
Pirlo, Gerrard, Rosický
Ibrahimović, Shevchenko, Di Natale

With the likes of Casillas, Cole, Karagounis, Parker, Tymoshchuk, Alonso, Arshavin, Kuyt and Klose on the bench.

Makes me want to scrub up my boots and beg NA for a trial.

For a fiver, you'd probably be able to pull Steve's cord and hear him say: 'I have to admit Adkins has them playing well but I still think promotion will go to Leicester, Millwall and Pompey'.

For 'Pompey' read 'Gosport Boro'
Seedhouse knows far too much about them, don't you think, and should be installed as their club historian forthwith- did you know they held the FA Cup for 5 years etc...?

if you had any brain at all you would have noticed that i have not said anywhere that i dont want the skates to survive.....dumbnuts

! what i want is for them to suffer in the same way other clubs have, and to be reminded of the fact that they as a club have `stolen` public monies by not paying taxes due! 2% of the 20% of £25mill+ they owed, and 2% of monies owed this time round! I want them to be forced out of league football and into non-league for the way they as a club have `stolen` from charities and local businesses! luton were given such a big points deduction they couldnt survive in L2, yes i know they got done for financial irregularities, but isnt asking fans to pay £2 extra per ticket for charity and then keeping that money a little bit dodgy? why no police involvement? poopey have cheated to gain a financial status higher than was achievable by normal practices. their fans `bestest in the world you know` have been culpable in this by expecting the club to be greater than it is! they wanted success and were happy for the club to pay for players they clearly could not afford, not by gate receipts anyway. they poored out in tens of thousands to cheer the FA cup they won using these players. they revelled in our downfall and wanted us to be liquidated!
they now will be very lucky to survive due to not being able to reduce the over the top wage bill they are stuck with because they overpaid for players and did not include relegation clauses.
so before you have a dig at me for something i have not said please look up the facts and see why i, as many, saints fans want them to suffer! and are laughing at them!
infact many poopey fans want them to be liquidated!
