I think there is every chance the sacking of Martin might also speed up the exit of BBD from the Saints.
The new manager coming in, will probably want to bring in his own players and will see that they have a huge squad already and are top heavy with forwards. The board will know they are as good as down and will in all likelihood be asking the new man to get some out of the door first. If United come knocking re BBD then I can see it where they will want to do business with us if the figures are right for all parties. Bear in mind BBD isn't the new managers signing and the player is probably OK with moving on, and I think it's a goer.
