The deadline day transfer grapevine is always very hit and miss as club's try to finalise deals and some get done and some don't, but toda's whisper is that there is a big signing in the offing for Saints.
The rumour mill is not the most accurate of barometers, but just because something doesn't happen it doesnt mean that it wasn't going to, in the days before the end of any transfer window deals are frantically trying to be done and in a lot of cases some deals just dont happen for a variety of reasons, one being the two clubs just run out of time.
Supporters often don't here about these deals as it is in no ones interest to let it out that a player was willing to leave a club or indeed the club was willing to let him go, so they are usually brueshed under the carpet, sometimes revisited in the next window sometimes not.
But the word is on the street that Saints are planning a big signing today and if it comes off it will excite the Saints supporters, the two names im hearing mentioned are Jordie Clasie and Danny Ings, both have been linked with Saints before, so in that respect nothing new, but the whisper is that one or the other is on the way to St Mary's.
