Saints striker Rickie Lambert has just signed a new deal its just been announced on everywhere bar the official club site, although its been on the twitter feed.

Super Rickie Lambert as the fans at St Mary's have dubbed him has signed a new deal to take him through to 2016 virtually committing to see his career out at the club if he is still here at the end of it.

Its good news for Saints fans who have seen rumours of his imminent transfer surface throughout the early part of the season, it has to be good news for team spirit and good news for competition for places as Lambert sets out to prove that not only can life begin at 30 in the Premier league, but that he can make up for lost time by playing their for a few seasons yet.

Whatsforpud added 21:07 - Mar 21 I thought that SRL stood for SIR Rickie Lambert! I have enjoyed his style of play. Not quick, but has quick feet and good control, giving himself time on the ball. Also willing to move away from the central position to find unmarked space. Looking forward to more of the same.

Other than the ox who has left this club that we wanted to keep duri g his tenure? Never in our history have we kept our best players like we have in the last 4 years.
