It's an Omen I tell you.

Anyone who puts Channon 7th needs seriously arguing with, you cannot be serious. Personally will always think he was better than MLT. Also don't recall Dick van Dyke ever playing for us, not even as a sweeper. I guess youth influences your list, given it omits Steve Williams and Rod Wallace. 🫢

My thoughts too, after all he was given the 1st team role because of his success with the u21s. Perhaps it was what he wanted rather than stepping back.

Really don't think he did it often enough to be thought of in the way some do. As I said I liked him but he was frustrating when he was with us, especially when you see what he did when he left. But that wasn't really the point of my post, he is 37, and would not suit in the Championship now.

Tadic will be 37 in November (older than Lallana when he rejoined), he wouldn't last the season in the Champ, probably wouldn't even make it to his 37th birthday. I like Tadic, and clearly he made a hellofa impact for Ajax, but there are definitely some rose tinted specs being used when remembering his time at Saints. Along with Gaston was notorious for giving the ball away while we were attacking, leading to goals conceded.

Blimey, that was a good watch, lots of memories, Best player ever, bar none. That Golac goal.

Don't think I suggested anything about the quality of these links (although I did call both rags). Just forwarding what is coming up on Google.

with Flynn Downes? 🤣

Russ looking to take Ramsdale and Downes according to rags https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/rangers-transfer-news-russell-martin-35360131 https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/35315053/russell-martin-transfer-southampton-flynn-downes-rangers/?utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=sunfootballfacebook&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwY2xjawKzr8lleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHhbDdoqIFtWnG5wTkNUvs1eDtpdQTeVHNRoMHm-4oYVhRDmV2kfvTnxIRR8V_aem_UHJXS0TSL6fLd4ZL05WFfw

Sadly the chances of Bazunu, Smallbone and Manning joining Russ at Rangers are very small unless the new owners are willing to completely break with tradition. I don't like sectarianism but it is alive and well in Scottish football. Maybe Smallbone might be considered given that he was born in Basingstoke.

Midfielder, scored 6 goals for Goztepe (4 in the Cup). Apparently was "the most famous wonderkid in the J. League"🤣

See they are also signing Danso for £21m, not sure he looked like a potential £21m player when he was with us. Hojbjerg's move to Marseille will also be permanent.

Nah, Ted Bates is top and always will be. Actually a favourite cousin (by marriage).

You're missing something 🤣

I'd be in favour of scrapping relegation from the Championship next season as a one-off (unless it affects P*mpey).
