But if he went to team nearer his wife this would still apply
More likely it’s either get to move back home or if I’m having to travel for a few months I may as well stay, maybe Sheffield and chance to live at home is the only obligation to buy he will be ok with
 

Big clue as to the liklihood of BBD leaving Saints anytime soon will be evident around 3.30 this afternoon. He would have been a stitch on to start in the Cup squad.
Mmmmm not even on the bench today and not listed as being injured 🤔
 
HA HA HA HA
YOU THOUGHT HE MEANT ANAL!!!!
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
I went to a wedding once where the best mans speech contained loads of jokes likes that on that subject. He was hammered and thought he was hilarious, most of the rest of the room looked a bit uncomfortable especially those with kids or the elderly

I went to a wedding once where the Grooms speech began with "doesn't she look lovely today ladies and gentlemen. Blonde hair, big tits, I knew I wanted to shag her from the 1st moment I saw her. Same goes for her mum.*"

All delivered in a comedy west country accent. The marriage lasted 10 months I think.

*And at this point, the bride was a virgin. She'd been saving herself for him. Not sure if he got his nuts wet on his wedding night though, he was the most cunted person in the room.
 
Sunderland ITKers saying on their forum not going to them. So I guess he's either staying at Southampton or coming here.

Surely Southampton would want his wages off the books rather than having him sitting there doing nothing. 🤷‍♂️

Sounds like Southampton trying to use the press to get a better deal to me

Some wise cracks on here think they'd be happy paying his wages for the next 6 months and playing with the kids if we don't meet this mysterious clause.
 
BBD and is agency will be fully aware of clubs after him, if this is an attempt to manufacture a bidding war or pressure us to sign terms that we’ve not been willing to sign the only thing BBD and his team can do is a sort of self sabotage and call bluff, by saying i don’t want to go anywhere else other than United to try and counter the dicking about Southampton are doing. Our role would then be to make statements like “we’ve got other targets to pursue”. It’s all a game of chicken.

Four scenarios

BBD forces Southampton to change their terms based on player welfare and he joins but late in the window. Which is what he wants due to family locality and previous affiliation with club.

Southhampton play silly buggers in the hope we simply have to sign him due to us sliding down the table.

We decide that we aren’t playing games and Southampton can “get to fuck” a move onto other targets.

We or another club stump up what’s being asked and BBD realises whether it’s us or not he needs to be playing regular football.

If BBD fitness/injury concerns is one of the reasons stopping us wanting an obligation to buy, then surely we can caveat that the obligation is only triggered if he is fit and available for selection for 75% of games during the loan period till end of season.

There's plenty of ways to creatively work around these things to ensure we are safeguarded...
