  2. Shouldn't it be the Premier League that everyone should be annoyed with? They should have taken action against Everton, and not let them get away with it, if indeed they have broken the FFP rules.
  3. Think the 2x £1.50 booking fee on a 2x £629 ticket is a little silly
  4. Opinions.... Just my tuppence worth. The press never really look into the real problem and where it all started. And to me, that was with the passing of Marcus Liebherr. Oh some of the fans go on and on about his legacy. His legacy was not to Southampton FC and its fans. He was here for little over a year. His legacy was to his daughter, and boy didn't she do well out of us. Out of interest, has she made some hollow platitudes about relegation? She's not stupid, and she nurtured the investment to get it into the Premier League where it was then much more valuable to sell. Fortune shined down on in that the team promoted was competitive to a certain degree. But it became very clear that it had to be self funding. No outward investment in the squad. Sell to buy. Monies loaned to the club at a decent interest rate. Cortese ran a tight ship but seemingly had different ideas and was given the chop for wanting to spend her money. Koeman did a stella job getting a squad together - I'm sure his name helped, so that was a masterstroke appointing him, or getting him to come. All the pundits said selling our best players would lead to relegation. Hindsight is obviously a great thing, but ultimately they were right, even though it took a few years more than they thought, and TBH needn't have had to be the case. Let's just ignore Gao's ownership!! More of the same - sell to buy, but by this stage the cupboard was a bit bare! Which comes on to the current lot. The idea of putting a team together with little experience and without some who can score goals wasn't a great decision, but it is what it is. 2 disastrous managerial appointment leading to 3W-3D-16L, when there was more than enough time to turn things around. And that's it IMO. A bit of a double edged sword - ML buys us out of administration as we were a very good business opportunity as shown by the £200m KL walked away with. We were a good business opportunity and it was taken full advantage of by people who didn't share the same interests and goals
  5. He was absolutely pathetic today. No fight in him what so ever. If I was a prospective club looking at him, I'd maybe thing twice after today's abject performance by him.
  6. Charly about the only decent player. Most disappointed with JWP. Shockingly bad.
  7. So sad that we're so timid and pathetic. Question now is, what price next season's ST and do I bother renewing or just give up (which I've been wanting to do for years)
  8. Hate it when big teams turn up, along with all the spanners who come along too. In front of me today, I had a yank dad, with one kid in a ManC top and the other in a Liverpool top. When they got terribly over excited with Haaland's 2nd goal, I did mention that it might be best for them to be a little more subtle when in the home stands. But as you say, hardly much point raising an issue with the club given that it won't be relevant next season.
  9. So bored having to sit with away supporters in the Kingsland. Why can't the club do a system where unless you've bought 1, 2 or more Cat C games, you can't buy a Cat A game?
  10. I'd quite like André Villas-Boas but guess he wouldn't be interested
  11. Seems quite a sensible way of doing IMO. Come the end of the season, things can then be looked at with a bit less urgency. Big thing here, is that he's free (ie not having to quit a job) and that there's presently only his old club that has a vacancy. As for the club covering themselves, all reports are that they have been tracking him for a while. If they didn't have faith, then they could leave Selles in place
  12. No idea if he speaks English, but while not buying compatriots, they will of course be pretty important to get them settled and up and running. A pretty huge upheaval for an 18 year old to make.
  13. Why? A sweetener for having it mid season.
  14. Clubs get a payment of c £8.5k a day for players at WC,
