I agree with this.
Think that Barnard is a better player. Also, Pardew is now a bit of a loser and possibly past it as a manager.

Lambert is a menace at this level but is far too slow to succeed any higher. That's why no clubs have come in for him this summer. Grant Holt is the same, I just can't see him scoring for Norwich like he did last time out.
So, if we were to do it i'm sure you wouldn't mind.

If true, it's another good signing by Pardew. I don't see any evidence that he's going to mess it up, on the contrary. Whether you like it or not, Southampton are now a very well run club with money, a good management team and a very strong playing squad. As mentioned elsewhere, they will walk league one.

Yes but we will never spend as much as they have on players while we are in league one. So that's a redundant comment.

thats in 2 and half (?) seasons.
Soton have been in league one for 1 season and spent alot more than that
It's not really a joke.
They can spend money because their BILLIONAIRE owner came in and dug them out of the shit
They should win the league this year - which will put them under massive pressure.

Apologies, but still it is all money spent in League One. Which seems quite high for the 3rd tier
Dizzle.

Maybe Tyson was one of the targets that Gus had said we had recently lost out on then?

And £60k for Holroyd. Having not seen Holroyd play, I'm not in a position to comment on his abilities, but I remember we bought him at around the same time Barnard went to Saints for £250k and it annoyed me that we'd taken a£60k punt on a non-leaguer when for not too much more cash we could have had a decent striker with a proven record at this level.
I know Poyet has said since that we were priced out by his wage demands, and the same for Billy Paynter, it's just frustrating that we seem to splash cash for players who "have potential", then let them go for free or worse, end up paying them off (a la Jonny Dixon). Would the combined wages and transfer fees of Craig Davies, Jake Wright, Liam Dickinson, Chris Holroyd & Gary Hart have paid for Lee Barnard or Nathan Tyson? I reckon so. I'd much rather push the boat out for an established striker this year than take a cheaper gamble on unknown quantities like Erik the Viking.
